If you play in the middle of the road, you are eventually going to get run over. Change is hard; adopting change sometimes seems impossible. Cloud is something that goes much better with a firm commitment to it. It is not something to do halfway. You can't maybe, kinda, sorta your way into using cloud services. Cloud is a strategic change with very powerful economic levers alongside it. Cloud can transform enterprises in many ways. Cloud is something that you can start at your own pace. There is no reason to lift and shift everything at once. Hybrid strategies are among the safest, easiest to control, and cost-effective ways to beginning the cloud journey. Cloud journeys are not sprints; they do not need to be marathons either. Based on the real-time data, analytics, scenario planning, models, normalized data, and side-by-side comparisons...

Overview of this book
Cloud adoption is a core component of digital
transformation. Scaling the IT environment,
making it resilient, and reducing costs are
what organizations want. Architecting Cloud
Computing Solutions presents and explains
critical cloud solution design considerations
and technology decisions required to
be made for deploying the right cloud
service and deployment models,
based on your business and
technology service requirements.
This book starts with the fundamentals
of cloud computing and its architectural
concepts. It then walks you through
cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS, and
SaaS), deployment models (public,
private, community, and hybrid)
and implementation options
(enterprise, MSP, and CSP) to explain
and describe the key considerations and
challenges organizations face during cloud
migration. Later, this book delves into how to
leverage DevOps, Cloud-Native, and serverless
architectures in your cloud environment
and presents industry best practices for
scaling your cloud environment. Finally,
this book addresses in depth how to
manage essential cloud technology
service components, such as data storage,
security controls, and disaster recovery.
By the end of this book, you will have
mastered all the design considerations and
operational trades required to adopt cloud
services, no matter which cloud service
provider you choose.
