1 year of real cloud engineering experience — no internship, no coding needed. Operate live infrastructure for your college batch. Deploy environments, debug APIs, manage databases — your classmates depend on you. ₹1.5L worth of cloud credits for ₹5,000. Certificate included.
This isn't a course — it's a role. The same way cloud engineers at companies learn on the job, you learn by running real infrastructure for people who depend on you. Versions ship, things break, and you figure it out.
If you're in college and want cloud engineering on your resume before placement season — this is for you.
You want real experience before placements — not another certificate from a video course. This gives you 1 year of documented production operations.
Most internships end before you learn anything real. This is 1 year of operating live infrastructure — enough time to actually build skills, not just shadow someone.
No coding needed. Cloud operations is one of the most accessible paths into tech. If you can use a dashboard, you can run infrastructure.
Your batch uses dept.events to coordinate study sessions, hackathons, and events. You're the one who keeps it running. When a new version ships, you spin up a testing environment, verify it works, then push to production. When something breaks before a hackathon — you debug it through the API console. When your classmates need data — you query it from the database browser.
dept.events — a real platform your classmates use to coordinate study sessions, hackathons, and batch events. You deploy it, manage it, and keep it alive.
A real operations dashboard — not a tutorial IDE. Deploy environments, test APIs, browse live data, all from one place.
Spin up production and testing environments whenever a new version of dept.events is available. Test before you ship — just like real cloud teams do.
Fire API calls directly from the cloud console — no external tools needed. Test endpoints against any environment, inspect responses, debug issues in real time.
View all database tables for any environment, search records, run queries — full visibility into the data your classmates are creating and using.
When a new version drops, you deploy it to testing first, verify everything works, then promote to production. If something breaks — roll back. Real release management.
Trace requests through the system, understand performance bottlenecks, and see exactly what's happening inside your infrastructure.
Your classmates depend on this platform. You keep environments healthy, verify new versions before rollout, and ensure data integrity. Real accountability, real experience.
The operational skills you build here are the same ones companies need — regardless of which cloud provider they use. Average fresher cloud salary in India: ₹3.5 – 6 LPA.
Most students try one of these paths. Here's how they compare.
| Unpaid Internship | Personal AWS Account | YouTube / Udemy | AssistedX | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost | ₹0 (but unpaid labor) | ₹2,000 – 15,000+ | ₹0 – ₹500 | ₹5,000 → ₹1.5L infra |
| Duration | 1 – 3 months | Self-paced (often abandoned) | 20 – 40 hours | 1 full year |
| What You Do | Depends on company | Tinker alone | Watch videos | Operate live infra |
| Real Users? | Maybe | No | No | ✓ Your classmates |
| Accountability? | Supervisor decides | None (no one notices if you quit) | None | ✓ Classmates depend on you |
| Resume-worthy? | Usually yes | Weak ("personal project") | No | ✓ 1 year production ops |
| Certificate? | Sometimes | No | Generic completion cert | ✓ Cloud Infra Engineer cert |
| AI-ready? | Depends on role | Tinkering alone | No real judgment built | ✓ Experience to use AI tools correctly |
While AI disrupts coding roles, cloud infrastructure demand is growing — every AI model, every SaaS product, every app needs someone keeping the servers alive. Companies aren't looking for people who can use AI tools. They're looking for people with enough experience to use them correctly.
Dedicated cloud infrastructure, operations tools, and the hands-on experience that lands cloud engineering interviews.
Dedicated servers, production databases, live APIs, and networking — real cloud resources provisioned for your batch, running for a full year.
Deploy environments, trigger APIs, browse databases, manage versions — your operations hub for the year.
Spin up and manage both environments on demand — the same multi-environment workflow used by real cloud teams.
API client, database browser, deployment manager, version control — everything in one dashboard, no external tools needed.

Dedicated servers. Production databases. Operations dashboard. Certificate included.
We'll reach out to you shortly with your operations dashboard access. Get ready to run real cloud infrastructure.
No. You apply and start completely free. You only activate your cloud credits (₹5,000 for ₹1.5L worth of infrastructure) after you've deployed your first environment and completed your first week of operations. If you try it and decide it's not for you, just walk away — no payment, no questions.
No prior coding experience is required. The platform provides visual tools for deploying environments, testing APIs, and browsing databases. You'll pick up operational skills as you go — the same way engineers learn on the job. Students from any department and any branch are welcome.
Yes. This isn't a full-time commitment. You operate infrastructure on your own schedule — most tasks like deploying a new version, checking system health, and testing APIs take minutes, not hours. Think of it like being the tech lead for your batch's platform. It fits around your lectures and exam schedule.
The certificate documents real operational experience — 1 year of managing production infrastructure with real users. This is exactly what companies interview for in cloud roles. It's not a course completion certificate — it's proof of hands-on work. When an interviewer asks "have you deployed to production?", you can say yes and describe what you did.
Perfect timing. Starting now means you'll have 1 year of documented cloud experience by the time placement season begins. Most students start preparing too late — they scramble for internships in final year. You'll already have a year of production operations on your resume while they're still applying.
You'll operate the dept.events platform for your batch — deploy production and testing environments when new versions are available, trigger and test APIs directly from the operations dashboard, browse database tables and search data, manage rollouts and rollbacks, and keep the system running for your classmates.
No. There's no curriculum, no lectures, no assignments. You learn by operating — the same way cloud engineers at companies learn. Your classmates use the platform, things break, versions ship, and you keep it all running. That's the training.
Everyone will have AI coding assistants — that's already happening. Everyone will also have AI infrastructure tools. The difference: you can test if AI-generated code works by running it. You can't verify if an AI infrastructure decision is correct unless you've operated infrastructure before. A bad deployment, a wrong rollback, a misconfigured database — these break real systems for real users instantly. AI tools make experienced operators 10x more productive, but they're dangerous in the hands of someone with no operational judgment. That judgment only comes from experience. Cloud infrastructure roles start at ₹4–7 LPA in India and are among the fastest-growing job categories.
This experience prepares you for Cloud Support Engineer (₹4–6 LPA), Junior DevOps Engineer (₹5–8 LPA), Infrastructure Intern (₹3–5 LPA), Cloud Operations Associate (₹4–7 LPA), and with further experience, Site Reliability Engineer (₹8–15 LPA). Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Accenture, and thousands of startups actively hire for these roles.
Because running real cloud infrastructure isn't free. Your dedicated allocation — servers, databases, networking, monitoring, operations tools — costs approximately ₹1.5L/year to provision and maintain. AssistedX sponsors the vast majority of this infrastructure cost. Your ₹5,000 activates your cloud credits and keeps your dedicated resources running for the full year. You're getting ₹1.5L worth of infrastructure for a fraction of its actual cost.
An official Cloud Infrastructure Engineer certificate from AssistedX documenting your hands-on experience operating production infrastructure — environment deployments, database operations, API testing, version management, and system reliability — all performed on a live platform serving your class.
Your certificate and resume experience are permanent — they don't expire. You can renew your cloud credits for another year at the same ₹5,000 rate if you want to keep operating, or use your experience to apply for cloud engineering roles during placements. Many students use this as a springboard to internships and full-time offers.
