Inhaltsangabe

The cloud is ubiquitous. Everyone uses the cloud to either access or deliver services, and now it is becoming ubiquitous in
another way. As applications are disaggregated, the cloud is expanding from hundreds of datacenters to tens of thousands of enterprises. This means it is becoming increasingly important to understand the principles of cloud operations: how resources are provisioned, how service lifecycles are managed, how runtime parameters are controlled, and how system behavior is monitored and corrected over time. This book gives a comprehensive and from-first-principles description of edge cloud operations. Features include:

• Describes a complete edge cloud operations stack, illustrated with example open source software.
• Emphasizes underlying concepts, abstractions, design rationale, and engineering tradeoffs.
• Explains how best practices in scalable cloud services are applied to operational challenges.
• Describes the interfaces that operators and developers use to realize DevOps practices.
• Defines terminology across management domains: Telco operators, Enterprise Admins, Cloud providers
• Includes an end-to-end management platform for an operational, multi-site hybrid cloud (available on GitHub).

"The authors provide a detailed overview of cloud operations in this new era of distributed clouds. To understand how it all works...you need to read this book." – Martin Casado, General Partner, a16z

Larry Peterson is the Robert E. Kahn Professor of Computer Science, Emeritus at Princeton University, where he served as Chair from 2003-2009. His research focuses on the design, implementation, and operation of Internet-scale distributed systems, including the widely used PlanetLab and MeasurementLab platforms. He is currently contributing to the Aether access-edge cloud project at the OpenNetworking Foundation (ONF), where he serves as Chief Scientist.Peterson is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, a Fellow of the ACM and the IEEE, the 2010 recipient of the IEEE Kobayashi Computer and Communication Award, and the 2013 recipient of the ACM SIGCOMM Award. He received his Ph.D. degree from Purdue University.

Scott Baker is a Cloud Software Architect at Intel, which he joinedas part of Intel's acquisition of the Open Networking Foundation(ONF) engineering team. While at ONF, he led the Aether DevOpsteam. Prior to ONF, he worked on cloud-related research projects atPrinceton and the University of Arizona, including PlanetLab, GENI,and VICCI. Baker received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from theUniversity of Arizona in 2005.

Bruce Davie is a computer scientist noted for his contributions tothe field of networking. He is a former VP and CTO for the AsiaPacific region at VMware. He joined VMware during the acquisition ofSoftware Defined Networking (SDN) startup Nicira. Prior to that, hewas a Fellow at Cisco Systems, leading a team of architectsresponsible for Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). Davie has over30 years of networking industry experience and has co-authored 17RFCs. He was recognized as an ACM Fellow in 2009 and chaired ACMSIGCOMM from 2009 to 2013. He was also a visiting lecturer at theMassachusetts Institute of Technology for five years. Davie is theauthor of multiple books and the holder of more than 40 U.S. Patents.
