Migrate an on-premises application or database to a cloud provider of your choice. Optimize the configuration for cost, performance, or other factors.

The Cloud Migration Challenge

Develop a solution that spans multiple cloud providers. This could be a multi-cloud storage solution, a multi-cloud application, or a disaster recovery strategy across clouds.

The Multi-Cloud Challenge

Define and provision a full stack for a new application using an Infrastructure as Code tool such as Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, or Google Cloud Deployment Manager.

The Infrastructure as Code Challenge

Create a serverless application using technologies such as AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, or Azure Functions. The application should be event-driven and scale automatically.

The Serverless Challenge

Containerize an existing application using Docker, and then deploy it to a container orchestration system like Kubernetes, AWS ECS, or Azure Container Instances.

The Containerization Challenge

Set up a CI/CD pipeline using a tool like Jenkins, CircleCI, GitLab CI, or cloud-based solutions like AWS CodePipeline or Google Cloud Build.

The Continuous Delivery Challenge

Design a secure cloud solution. Implement best practices for IAM, network security, encryption, and monitoring. Optionally, prepare for a security audit.

The Cloud Security Challenge

Analyze the cost of a running cloud solution and implement changes to reduce the cost. This could involve reserved instances, spot instances, auto-scaling, or other cost-saving measures.

The Cost Optimization Challenge

Design and implement a high availability strategy for an existing application. This could involve multi-region deployment, load balancing, automatic failover, or other strategies.

The High Availability Challenge

Automate a routine cloud management task using scripts or tools. This could be automated backups, automated testing, automated deployment, or automated system recovery.

The Automation Challenge

A tool to manage resources across multiple cloud providers.

Multi-Cloud Management Tool

A web application that uses serverless architecture.

Serverless Application

A machine learning pipeline that runs entirely on the cloud.

Cloud-Based Machine Learning Pipeline

Develop a disaster recovery plan for a cloud-based application.
