Overview

Cloud Computing Explained provides an overview of Cloud Computing in an enterprise environment. There is a tremendous amount of enthusiasm around cloud-based solutions and services as well as the cost-savings and flexibility that they can provide. It is imperative that all senior technologists have a solid understanding of the ramifications of cloud computing since its impact is likely to permeate the entire IT landscape. However, it is not trivial to introduce a fundamentally different service-delivery paradigm into an existing enterprise architecture.

This book describes the benefits and challenges of Cloud Computing and then leads the reader through the process of assessing the suitability of a cloud-based approach for a given situation, calculating and justifying the investment that is required to transform the process or application, and then developing a solid design that considers the implementation as well as the ongoing operations and governance required to maintain the solution in a partially outsourced delivery model.

    Best book on cloud computing for IT managers

    This book is the best coverage of cloud computing that I've seen. It includes all dimensions of cloud services, infrastructure, platforms, software.
    It is a fantastic help for IT managers who got to understand the new technology and also want to know how to put together a solution architecture with all the bespoke application and then they try to make the whole thing work. Think about security, management, governance, risk and all the financial CFO/CIO considerations.
    Most other books are very narrow and don't explain the real challenges and how to address them.
    Five stars for sure!
