Where a cloud architect can go next
4 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a cloud architect already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Cloud architects are responsible for converting the technical features of a project into the architecture to lead to the final product. To develop technical cloud strategy, they have in-depth knowledge of the architectural principles and services, assisting with cloud migration efforts, review workload architectures, and provide guidance on how to address high-risk issues. They typically perform in a pre-sales capacity and are often asked to deliver proof-of-concept projects, topical workshops, and lead implementation projects. They team up with DevOps engineers to build the appropriate technologies.
