Instructions You will produce a technical report for the lesson’s assignment that includes a high-level solutions diagram for network and remote computing defenses in Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. This will be a minimum of ten pages that contain the specific cloud-native services for the three cloud services, along with a description of their capabilities. You will include why these services were chosen and what risks the services will address. Your high-level diagram must consist of the following items:
Diagram of Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure virtual environment, which must include the following; Web Application Server infrastructure Database Infrastructure Point for user access of your Web Application Point for administrative access to your systems without using the cloud provided console (must have programmatic and remote access) Remote Desktop Environment for employees A detailed description of native network defenses you propose to use for each cloud service provider (AWS, GCP, Azure) What solutions do AWS, Google, and Microsoft provide for SD-WAN and other advanced networking technologies? A discussion about the use-cases these native network defenses will solve Length: 9 -pages, not including title page and references.
References: Include a minimum of five scholarly resources presented in the Course Resources. Identify two additional quality scholarly resources that were not introduced in your required readings yet will enhance understanding when addressing organizational challenges. Your additional resources should be credible and relevant to addressing identified organizational challenges. Be sure to synthesize your resources and use APA standards.
