Introduction to the Program

Boost your IT career by delving into networking and interconnection of distributed networks, design of distributed systems and security approaches in these systems"

Inter-process communication, cryptographic security and distributed transactions have evolved at an astonishing pace in recent years. Data replication and remote invocation of services has triggered the emergence of commercially successful projects such as Netflix, which require the best IT to maintain their complex distribution systems.

The computing area of Distributed Computing Systems is only growing with the proliferation of larger devices and 5G networks, which enable higher processing power and speeds than even those achieved by large computers. It is a technological revolution in which the computer scientist plays an active part, so it is essential that they refine their skills in the design and programming of these systems to take full advantage of their potential.

Thanks to this Diploma, developed by a teaching staff with extensive professional experience in companies and projects of great prestige, the computer scientist will be able to learn the most important considerations and keys regarding Distributed Computing Systems. The eminently practical approach of all the contents makes them useful, even as reference material afterwards, resulting in an enriching academic experience for the student.

The fully online format of this Postgraduate certificate also ensures that it can be combined with all kinds of professional and personal responsibilities. All the contents are accessible from the first day, and the student can download and study them at their own pace.

You will have the freedom to decide how to distribute the teaching load, with no fixed schedules or face-to-face classes to limit you"
