Advanced Cloud Networking Training Course–mastering networks on Azure, AWS and Google Cloud (GCP)

FAQ–Frequently asked questions about the Advanced Cloud Networking Training Course What is advanced cloud networking?

Advanced cloud networking covers the complex network architectures deployed on Azure, AWS and GCP: hub-and-spoke, transit gateways, inter-region peering, Service Mesh, NVAs, private interconnection (ExpressRoute, Direct Connect, Interconnect), private DNS, BGP and advanced routing.

What is the difference between hub-and-spoke and transit gateway?

Hub-and-spoke is an architecture model where a central VNet/VPC (hub) connects several peripheral VNets (spokes) and centralises services (firewall, DNS). Transit Gateway (AWS) and equivalents (Azure Virtual WAN, GCP Network Connectivity Center) are the managed services that implement this model at scale. MFE-IT compares all three clouds.

How do you interconnect a data center with several clouds?

Via private links (ExpressRoute for Azure, Direct Connect for AWS, Interconnect for GCP) or SD-WAN (Megaport, Equinix). A multi-cloud transit hub centralises traffic. The MFE-IT training details the design and trade-offs (cost, latency, resilience).

How long does it take to master advanced cloud networking?

Our Advanced Cloud Networking training runs over 5 days (35 hours) in a fully tailored format. This volume is needed to cover all three clouds (Azure, AWS, GCP) with representative hands-on labs.

Good to know

Our sessions are guaranteed from a single registrant, with no risk of postponement (except in cases of force majeure). A prior interview takes place between the participant and a company representative to fully take into account the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.). Evaluation: during the training, the trainer assesses participants’ learning progress through quizzes, role-plays and practical exercises. Participants receive a certificate of achievement at the end of the training. This training is part of our Cloud Computing training catalogue.

Objectives of the Advanced Cloud Networking Training Course

• By the end of the training, the participant will be able to:
• Understand and compare the cloud networking architectures of the three main providers: Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Design, deploy and manage secure, high-performing cloud network infrastructures (VPC/VNet, peering, subnets, routing, load balancing).
• Diagnose, optimise and secure network connections in hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
• Automate and orchestrate network configurations with cloud-native tools (CLI, IaC, templates).
• Deepen cloud network security: segmentation strategies, firewalls, VPN, network IAM.

Prerequisites for the Advanced Cloud Networking Training Course

Solid knowledge of IP networking (OSI, TCP/IP, routing, VLAN). Familiarity with cloud computing concepts (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS). Good command of the command line and basic cloud CLI tools. Ideally some initial experience with at least one provider (Azure, AWS or GCP). Because every participant is unique, a personalised interview with our expert lets us design a course perfectly aligned with their goals, level and professional challenges.

Target audience of the Advanced Cloud Networking Training Course

Network and cloud engineers, IT architects and system administrators working with secure, high-performing network infrastructures across one or more public clouds. Professionals responsible for designing, operating or securing hybrid and multi-cloud network environments (Azure, AWS, GCP).
