Cloud computing, like the Covid-19 virus, is all
around these days, but in a good way. Expertise
is in short supply for companies looking to take
advantage of the cloud. To fill the void, plenty
of cloud consulting companies have sprung up in
recent years.

What is Cloud Consulting? Cloud consulting is a
service that assists you in choosing the right
cloud solutions that will integrate seamlessly
and have the best return on investment in
technology. Usually, a consultant assists their
clients in deciding on a cloud plan. They work
together to decide which applications or
workloads are suitable for running in the cloud
rather than on-premises. The consultant then
takes on the challenge of cloud migration, also
known as transferring on-premises resources to a
cloud platform. A cloud consultant can also
provide managed services to ensure the smooth
operation of cloud workloads. For several
consultants, optimizing the expense and
efficiency of cloud workloads has become a core
service.

Skills of a Cloud Consultant Leadership,
confidence, written and verbal communication,
listening, and relationship building were once
required skills to become a successful
consultant. A consultant could settle in and
coast on their established expertise until they
mastered their industry and platform-specific
skills. Theyd also have to keep up to date on IT
news and updates. However, the major part of the
work remained reasonably constant from one
project to the other. The situation has changed
now. Its no longer about prior knowledge or
experience.

The pace of innovation has intensified, and many
industries are constantly being developed,
disrupted, or even removed. There is one talent
that stands out above the rest in this
ever-changing world. Its the one skill that sets
top performers apart from those who are barely
keeping up. A consultant must learn to quickly
find and actualize new knowledge from a variety
of sources, then implement their learnings in
real-time. Consultants who try to coast, relying
on their current skills and abilities, will be
left behind. In the series Game of Thrones, the
Stark girl gave up her name and identity in order
to learn from the Many-Faced God. So, you now
know that the ability to learn is the most
important asset.
The cloud consulting career In order to build
your career in Cloud consulting, you must first
have a bachelors degree ideally in computer
science, information technology, or engineering
as its a basic requirement. Then we have
various certifications that set a consultant
apart when organizations are looking to employ
one. If a cloud consultant takes a business
management course, it is a plus for him because
it will better prepare him to take on the
consulting job. The degree, certifications, and
courses will also ensure increased wages. To
differentiate themselves from competitors, cloud
consulting companies often try to advertise the
number of workers who hold cloud certifications.

How to become a Cloud consultant?




Now we know what cloud consulting is, the most
important skill needed for it, and what a
consultant does. The crucial question that arises
here is, how to become a cloud consultant? There
is no particular certification for a cloud
consultant but it is a designation you earn after
gaining some knowledge, skills and completing a
couple of certifications.

• Basic Knowledge of Networking In order to become
  a cloud consultant, one must have a basic
  understanding of Networking because Networking is
  the backbone of Cloud computing. Cloud is all
  about virtualization and the concept of
  virtualization pretty much depends on Networking.
  It is the first step that must be taken to learn
  cloud computing because the understanding of
  Networks will make it easy to manage, scale, and
  secure your Cloud.
• Basic Knowledge of Windows and Linux Operating
  System It is important to have a working
  experience in Linux and Windows operating systems
  because the most popular cloud service providers
  like AWS, Azure, and GCP majorly use Linux and
  Windows. You must have knowledge of the latest
  version of the Windows operating system and
  Ubuntu, Fedora, and Debian for the Linux
  operating system.
• Basic Knowledge of Programming Having expertise
  in programming will help individuals in creating,
  hosting, and managing applications on Cloud
  platforms. It is a bonus that facilitates
  communication with the available third-party
  resources and applications.

• One Cloud Platform You need to learn at least
  one cloud platform. There are many cloud
  platforms in the market. The most popular ones
  are AWS (Amazon Web Services), Microsoft Azure,
  and GCP (Google Cloud Platform). You can choose
  one of the above or any other. You can choose to
  train in any cloud platform and get certified.
• Architect Certification Once you have acquired a
  basic understanding of one of the cloud
  platforms, you must have its architecture
  knowledge as well. If you choose AWS then youll
  have to complete the AWS Certified Solutions
  Architect Associate certification and AWS
  Certified Solutions Architect Professional
  certification to become AWS Certified Solutions
  Architect. If you choose Microsoft Azure then
  youll have to complete the AZ-303 / AZ-300
  Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies
  certification and the AZ-304/AZ-301 Microsoft
  Azure Architect Design certification to become an
  Azure Certified Solutions Architect. You can also
  choose an equivalent certification from any other
  Cloud service provider.
• Build a Project This is a very essential part of
  self-learning. Now that you have a knowledge of
  networking, Windows and Linux operating systems,
  programming, cloud basics, and cloud
  architecture, you must build a project on your
  own. It can be a small project but it will help
  you a lot.
