This latest textbook from bestselling author, Douglas E. Comer, is
a class-tested book providing a comprehensive introduction to cloud
computing. Focusing on concepts and principles, rather than
commercial offerings by cloud providers and vendors, The Cloud
Computing Book: The Future of Computing Explained gives readers a
complete picture of the advantages and growth of cloud computing,
cloud infrastructure, virtualization, automation and orchestration,
and cloud-native software design. The book explains real and
virtual data center facilities, including computation (e.g.,
servers, hypervisors, Virtual Machines, and containers), networks
(e.g., leaf-spine architecture, VLANs, and VxLAN), and storage
mechanisms (e.g., SAN, NAS, and object storage). Chapters on
automation and orchestration cover the conceptual organization of
systems that automate software deployment and scaling. Chapters on
cloud-native software cover parallelism, microservices, MapReduce,
controller-based designs, and serverless computing. Although it
focuses on concepts and principles, the book uses popular
technologies in examples, including Docker containers and
Kubernetes. Final chapters explain security in a cloud environment
and the use of models to help control the complexity involved in
designing software for the cloud. The text is suitable for a
one-semester course for software engineers who want to understand
cloud, and for IT managers moving an organization's computing to
the cloud.
