I think it is another name of a solutions architect in cloud providers. For example, on AWS you can architect solutions using its services and literally use code to build such infrastructure using CloudFormation and, more recently, AWS CDK. CloudFormation can be viewed as a programing language, it has its syntax, rules, etc. CDK was built to make the same thing as CloudFormation, but with already established programming languages such as Java, TypeScript and so on. To build a cloud solution in have to have to know about scripts, automation, etc, making you a developer in some sense.
thank a lot, this is really explicit.
I write code on my local computer and publish them to heroku cloud, does it make me a cloud developer ?
I'm not sure about the definition.
To me "cloud developer" means DevOps
Not sure. You can be devops on your own bare metal infrastructure.
Well, devops on the cloud then
