Cloud Services
Cloud Services are service providers that offer development tools and resources in an ever expanding technical environment. Popular providers include:
- Amazon Web Services (AWS)
- Microsoft Azure
- Google Cloud Platform
These service providers have programs that allow students to get their hands on these cloud resources to complete their coursework and research. Access is usually granted either for free on a trial basis, or students are granted credits to put toward using what they need on the platform.
NOTE: Each student program has terms and conditions that should be reviewed by both instructors and students to ensure the offering has everything needed for required coursework or research.
