Cloud Architect

From the network, security, and operation, a Cloud Architect designs the cloud environment. They also define the architecture for deploying services between components (i.e. PaaS, IaaS, and serverless functions).

The Cloud Architects primary function is to define the principles for the operation and the resources that give service to the different applications.

This includes elements such as

• Management communications and segmentation of networks


• Design and development of Cloud-Native Applications (CNA)


• Security applications and perimeter security such as firewalls, proxies, and entities for certification


• Management of inventory of resources and auto-scaling processes


• Monitoring the environment.
