Cloud Computing

This is a short book on purpose. I don't want to overwhelm you with technical detail. I go slow and easy, so you can build up an intuition about what cloud computing really is, one idea at a time.

When you finish reading, you'll understand cloud computing. When you hear someone say some new cool thing uses cloud computing, you'll understand exactly what they mean. That's a promise.



What you'll learn

Leverage cloud computing practices to successfully build a cost-effective cloud environment.Select the most ideal cloud service model, and execute suitable cloud design strategies for your company.Implement cloud computing solutions efficiently and effectively.Use case patterns for cloud models and types.Best practices for adopting cloud computing.

You will understand different main cloud computing types such as infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service, software-as-a-service. In addition, you will also get an overview of modern cloud computing types such as data-as-a-service, desktop-as-a-service, and function-as-a-service. The book also provides good detail about different cloud deployment models: public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, community cloud, multi-cloud, and multitenancy.
