Over the past ten years, cloud
computing has transformed from a "nice-to-have" to a
"must-have" technology requirement in today's business environment.
The need for an IT specialist who can manage the migration process and perform
cloud-related tasks has increased as a result of this seismic change.
An IT specialist known as a cloud
engineer is in charge of all technical aspects of cloud computing, including
design, planning, management, upkeep, and support of an organization's current
infrastructure as well as exploring options for moving different functions
(like database storage) to a cloud-based system. Then, on the new machine, this
individual migrates and keeps the function running.
Cloud Engineers must be technically
proficient, have the ability to bargain with vendors, manage data security, and
more in order to complete the move.
The term “cloud engineer” refers to
a variety of positions, including:
Architect for the cloud
Engineer for cloud software
Engineer in charge of cloud security
Engineer for cloud-based systems
Engineer in charge of cloud networks
Instead of focusing on technology as
a whole, each role focuses on a specific type of cloud computing.
Companies that want to deploy cloud
services, scale up their use of cloud resources, or improve their cloud
knowledge and technology frequently hire cloud engineers.
The average annual salary of a cloud
engineer in India is around 7.5-8 lakh rupees, according to Indeed's January
2020 study.
This data came from a review of 228
salaries submitted to Indeed in the previous three years.
Given the rapidly increasing demand
for cloud engineers and the scarcity of supply, this is expected to skyrocket
in the coming years.
Looking at cloud engineer salaries
in India by job title is the best way to figure out what you're capable of.
As you advance up the corporate
ladder as a cloud engineer, your salary will rise.
The better the company you work for,
the more likely it is that you will receive a significant pay raise.
