What academic support websites do you recommend for cloud computing?

[Frank70]

I'm studying for cloud certifications and looking for good academic support websites that offer more than just exam dumps. I want resources that actually help me understand cloud architecture and services at a deep level. There are plenty of academic support websites out there, but which ones have you found most helpful for technical subjects that require both conceptual understanding and practical skills?

For cloud computing, the official documentation from AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud is actually excellent. They have tutorials, whitepapers, and architecture guides that teach concepts properly. Also, Cloud Academy and Linux Academy (now part of A Cloud Guru) have structured learning paths that build knowledge systematically.

I work with cloud infrastructure daily and can't stress enough how important hands on practice is. The free tiers from AWS, Azure, and GCP let you experiment with real services. Combine this with tutorials from their learning platforms. Also, YouTube channels like TechWorld with Nana or FreeCodeCamp have great cloud content that explains concepts clearly.

For cloud certifications specifically, the practice exams from Whizlabs or Tutorials Dojo are valuable for testing your knowledge. But they should come after you've learned the material properly. Also, joining cloud communities on Reddit or Discord can provide support and answer specific questions as you study.

From a security perspective, make sure any cloud learning resources cover security best practices. Many tutorials focus on functionality without considering security implications. The Cloud Security Alliance has good resources, and AWS/Azure/GCP all have security specific learning paths that are worth following.
