Is cloud the next big thing? As it stands, technology has revolutionised the job landscape and obviously for IT & Tech Careers. With the majority of companies now moving their operations from on-premise servers to the cloud; cloud computing careers are in high demand.

He has even sold clothes for a living as he tried to nature his entrepreneurial spirit before later interning and climbed up the ladder to the position he holds. Well, this was not just not handed to him as he has had to pass his Associate Cloud Engineer certifications and now working towards his Cloud Architect Certifications.
