As the global economic situation remains uncertain, IT spending has also become more conservative. Cloud computing brings potential competitive advantages. Cloud computing presents opportunities for a variety of IT departments to reduce the risks associated with internally deployed IT infrastructure (hardware and software). There are many employment directions for learning cloud computing, and operation and maintenance is one of the more important positions. Some people wonder what is the difference between cloud computing operation and maintenance engineers and traditional operation and maintenance.

The application challenges brought by cloud computing are different from those of traditional operation and maintenance:

How to achieve rapid deployment, rapid update and real-time monitoring of applications on the cloud platform. In the era of cloud computing, operators are required to deploy applications and all supported software and software packages automatically, and then maintain and manage applications through lifecycle operations, such as automatic extension of events and software updates.

How to quickly create and copy resource templates, how to configure and update resource templates in an orderly manner, and how to deploy, configure and manage applications more easily in the cloud. How to use tools to quickly deploy and manage applications in the cloud, while automatically handling capacity preconfiguration, load balancing, Auto Scaling and application health monitoring, are new requirements for operators.

In the face of these challenges and changes, most of the operation and maintenance personnel began the road of transformation to cope with the changes of the times. When it comes to the suggestion of the transformation of the operation and maintenance personnel, Wang Yi believes that the traditional operation and maintenance staff deal more with physical equipment and have little contact with the operating system or even the application level. So he suggested that operators should be more involved in the software part in the cloud platform phase and need to have a code base. Because in the cloud age, infrastructure as code, all operations on physical devices become code.

Cloud computing operation and maintenance engineers need to consider two issues:

1. How to implement rapid deployment, rapid update and real-time monitoring of applications on cloud platform. In the era of cloud computing, operators are required to deploy applications and all supported software and software packages automatically, and then maintain and manage applications through lifecycle operations, such as automatic extension of events and software updates.

2. How to deploy, configure and manage applications more easily in the cloud. How to use tools to quickly deploy and manage applications in the cloud, while automatically handling capacity preconfiguration, load balancing, Auto Scaling and application health monitoring, are new requirements for operators.

Traditional operation and maintenance personnel are exposed to hardware, such as servers, equipment and wind, thermal and hydropower, but in the cloud era, operation and maintenance personnel have been unable to see any physical equipment.

The post of cloud computing operation and maintenance is related to whether the cloud computing platform can run smoothly and smoothly, so the knowledge structure that operation and maintenance engineers need to master is also relatively rich, which involves not only the traditional knowledge of network operation and maintenance. it also involves virtualization, management, storage, security and other related knowledge. In addition, operation and maintenance engineers also need to have certain programming capabilities in order to complete large-scale automated service deployment, which also puts forward higher requirements for operation and maintenance engineers.
