Yellow Circle is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with mission is to provide a free-to-use information technology (IT) platform for students to learn about the capabilities of cloud computing and IT infrastructures. The company's platform promotes increased learning by allowing students to apply their newly learned IT theories to create real world IT infrastructures in a non-production environment without having to worry about associated expenses. This cloud environment, further referenced as a "learning platform" will be provided through the company website without fees to users. By using this platform students can create, manage, and customize their own virtual private data-center. Each student will have access to deploy private networks, routers, firewalls, servers, appliances, load-balancers, storage devices and more. Students will increase their learning by implementing real world solutions by following guides and tutorials provided in company's "Educational Materials & Tutorials". The goal is to encourage and enhance learning through an online educational platform that provides hands-on experience without the associated cost of software, maintenance, or hardware infrastructure.
