• 2.  Load Balancing Techniques for Cloud
  7m 40s
  In this video, you will learn the importance of load balancing in the cloud as well as common techniques used to load balance in the cloud. The video discusses the critical benefits of load balancing along with the types of load balancers and load balancing methods. By the end of the video, you will learn how to select the right architecture for your needs, and discover why it is critical to select the appropriate architecture. FREE ACCESS
• 3.  The OSI Model and its Definition of Load Balancing
  6m
  In this video, you will learn how to recall the Open Systems Interconnection model and describe the concept of load balancing defined by the associated layer of The OSI Model.  The OSI model includes three concepts, which are services, interfaces, and protocols. DCPIP does not offer a distinction between the three.  You will also learn how load balancers work with the OSI model. This will help you to choose the right load balancer. FREE ACCESS

  2m 46s
  In this video, you will learn more about the key characteristics of different load balancers. You'll cover application load balancer, network load balancer, and classic load balancer. The video covers the features of each type of load balancer. Understanding these features will help you decide which type of load balancer to select.  FREE ACCESS
• 5.  Virtualization and Resource Allocation
  7m 14s
  In this video, you will learn more about the virtualization of hardware resources and allocation. You'll focus on infrastructure as service cloud resources. These are available to end-users via service endpoints that point to virtualized resources. You will learn more about resource allocation strategies and the objective of these strategies. You'll learn what to avoid when it comes to optimal resource allocation strategy adoption and also learn about the service lifecycle of a virtualized cloud.  FREE ACCESS
• 6.  Load Balancing Architecture for Cloud
  6m 8s
  In this video, you will learn to recognize and compare the prominent load balancing architectures that can be implemented in cloud. You'll learn to identify the right metrics to help you discover how a load balancer has enhanced accessibility. The video covers the performance of load balancers and resource utilization. You'll identify the type of load balancer that can be utilized in cloud. These types include centralized load balancing, decentralized load balancing, hierarchical load balancing.  FREE ACCESS
• 7.  Load Balancer Configuration Attributes
  5m 3s
  This video explains critical load balancer configurations You'll learn about load balancer names, listener descriptions, member instances, policies, and schemes as well as subnet members and VPCID.  The video covers load balancer attributes, including the access log, connection draining, connection settings, and cross zone load balancing. It discusses attributes that describe load balancers, such as availability zones, backend server descriptions, canonical hosted zone names, and canonical hosted zone ID. FREE ACCESS
• 8.  Configuring a Load Balancer
  4m 45s
  In this video, you will create and configure a load balancer. You will utilize the AWS management console to do so. The video will provide you with step by step directions to create your load balancer.  FREE ACCESS
• 9.  Domain Name System Server Types
  5m 57s
  In this video, you will learn the common types of domain name servers (DNS) that are used to resolve hostnames into IP addresses along with the different types of queries in the domain name server that can be used to resolve names. You'll also learn how DNS works, common DNS record types, types of DNS service in the cloud, and all about recursive and authoritative DNS. The video will teach you how to configure DNS.  FREE ACCESS
• 10.  Configuring Domain Name Systems
  5m 27s
  In this video, you will learn how to configure domain name routing service. You will use the AWS management console. You will follow the instructor's step-by-step instructions to configure your domain name.  FREE ACCESS
• 11.  Disaster Recovery and Failover Models
  11m 4s
  This video explains disaster recovery and failover models. You’ll discover disaster recovery characteristics such as maintaining minimal RPO and RTO, ensuring minimal effects on normal system operations, ensuring geographical separation, ensuring the application is restored to a consistent state, and guaranteeing privacy and confidentiality.  The video discusses about cloud-based disaster recovery models, challenges of disaster recovery in cloud environments, and disaster recovery solution approaches in the cloud. It also covers disaster recovery challenges and solutions.  FREE ACCESS
• 12.  A Disaster Recovery Plan Checklist
  5m 28s
  In this video, you will learn about the planning checklist for disaster recovery in the cloud. Planning for disaster recovery is a critical task, and here you will learn why. You'll learn how to create a checklist and see the components that should be included.  The video discusses the Cloud Disaster Recovery Pyramid and explains why each piece is important. You'll also cover a cloud-based disaster recovery implementation checklist.  FREE ACCESS
• 13.  Remote Desktop Protocol vs. Secure Shell
  4m 26s
  In this video, you will learn about the common characteristics of remote desktop protocol. You'll look at the different protocols, including RDP and SSH. The video compares the benefits and features of both of these architecture models.  FREE ACCESS
