Episode 8 — Glossary Deep Dive Part 1 — Cloud Architecture and Design
This glossary episode delivers detailed explanations of key terms from the Cloud Architecture and Design domain, ensuring you understand both the definitions and the practical applications. We cover deployment models such as public, private, hybrid, and community cloud, explaining the operational and security implications of each. Service models including IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS are examined in depth, with real-world examples of how they’re implemented in enterprise environments. We also explore foundational concepts like scalability, redundancy, availability zones, and the shared responsibility model, connecting each term to actual design decisions. By learning these concepts now, you’ll build a mental framework that makes later, more complex topics easier to understand.
The session also explains how architectural terms influence decisions about cost, performance, and compliance in cloud deployments. We connect abstract definitions to practical outcomes, such as how choosing a multicloud approach affects vendor relationships, workload distribution, and failover planning. This depth ensures you can not only recognize these terms in the exam but also analyze scenarios where their correct application is the key to success. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com, with additional prepcasts, books, and glossary tools for deeper learning.
