A practitioner curriculum for working Solutions Architects moving from regional builds to enterprise- and global-scale designs across AWS, Azure, and GCP. You learn the Well-Architected Framework's six pillars, multi-region patterns, FinOps cost levers (Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, Spot, Graviton), event-driven architectures, AI/ML inference platforms, and the customer-facing skills (discovery, PoC scoping, migration TCO) that separate IC engineers from Principal SAs at hyperscalers and customers like Capital One, Netflix, and HSBC.
