Synopsis

There are more applications running in the cloud than there are ones that run well there. If you're considering taking advantage of cloud technology for your company's projects, this practical guide is an ideal way to understand the best practices that will help you architect applications that work well in the cloud, no matter which vendors, products, or languages you use.

Architects and lead developers will learn how cloud applications should be designed, how they fit into a larger architectural picture, and how to make them operate efficiently. Authors Kyle Brown, Bobby Woolf, and Joseph Yoder take you through the process step-by-step.

• Explore proven architectural practices for developing applications for the cloud
• Understand why some architectural choices are better suited than others for applications intended to run on the cloud
• Learn design and implementation techniques for developing cloud applications
• Select the most appropriate cloud adoption patterns for your organization
• See how all potential choices in application design relate to each other through the connections of the patterns
• Chart your own course in adopting the right strategies for developing application architectures for the cloud
