As
companies use cloud technologies to transform at a rapid pace, many recognize
that their organization needs cloud knowledge to achieve their goals. But
research shows that 90% of IT decision makers report a lack of cloud skills in
their workforce (Global Knowledge, 2018 IT Skills and Remuneration Report,
2018). Professionals with cloud architecture knowledge on how to best plan,
design, develop, migrate and deploy applications in the cloud are in high
demand.
Early
in my career at Amazon Web Services (AWS), I was one of the company's (and
industry's) first Cloud Solutions Architects. Since then, cloud usage has
increased significantly, as has the number of services and features available
to cloud builders. I now lead certification and training programs where we
offer skills training and validation to individuals and organizations to
implement cloud initiatives with confidence. The role of the cloud architect is
in high demand and will continue to provide endless opportunities for business
growth and innovation.
What
are the key skills needed to become a successful cloud architect? Read on to
learn the key skills employers are looking for and professionals can acquire to
harness today's mobility and business potential.
