I wrote in my journal for this class that when it was taken before at my previous school, this time if feels like being kicked in the gut again while hearing, “No Randy, you are not done learning.” This class has not only taught about the technological offerings of the Cloud but where the future is being driven to. Read the news and understand that while AI is taking the stage now, it will soon be driven by Quantum computing in datacenters that will decide more things for us than we could imagine already and still scale. This class is humbling and awesome at the same time, allowing me to determine how to migrate my own website to the cloud and have it be more secure. This class has been really fun, my network has been rebuilt 3 times now, the hypervisors have been taken offline and smaller systems are running to take their places as the understanding has hit me to what kind of power I had built in my home.
2 more semesters to go, this is really so much fun and I love the fact that what I’m learning can be applied to my “homelab”.
