Learning outcomes |
The aim of the course is to provide students with a broad and integrative perspective of virtualization and datacenter technologies. At the end of the course, students should be able to systematize an approach to the various virtualization and datacenter technologies that provide applications and services with high availability, greater flexibility, better resource utilization, greater scalability and adaptability, and reduced costs. Students should be able to assess the choices, solutions and commitments involved in the development, deployment, use and management of virtualized infrastructures and datacenters.
