Cloud and Virtualization Concepts

About This Certification

This certification provides a solid technical foundation in virtualization and cloud computing, with a specific emphasis on open-source technologies. Unlike generic introductory courses, it focuses on practical implementation using Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE), covering the transition from physical hardware to virtualized data center infrastructures.

It validates the understanding of how virtualization layers function (Hypervisors), the architecture of modern data centers, and the core mechanics that power private and public cloud environments.
