Key benefits

  • Deliver robust multi-cloud environments and improve your business productivity
  • Stay in control of the cost, governance, development, security, and continuous improvement of your multi-cloud solution
  • Integrate different solutions, principles, and practices into one multi-cloud foundation

Description

Multi-cloud has emerged as one of the top cloud computing trends, with businesses wanting to reduce their reliance on only one vendor. But when organizations shift to multiple cloud services without a clear strategy, they may face certain difficulties, in terms of how to stay in control, how to keep all the different components secure, and how to execute the cross-cloud development of applications. This book combines best practices from different cloud adoption frameworks to help you find solutions to these problems. With step-by-step explanations of essential concepts and practical examples, you’ll begin by planning the foundation, creating the architecture, designing the governance model, and implementing tools, processes, and technologies to manage multi-cloud environments. You’ll then discover how to design workload environments using different cloud propositions, understand how to optimize the use of these cloud technologies, and automate and monitor the environments. As you advance, you’ll delve into multi-cloud governance, defining clear demarcation models and management processes. Finally, you’ll learn about managing identities in multi-cloud: who’s doing what, why, when, and where. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to create, implement, and manage multi-cloud architectures with confidence

Jeroen Mulder has written the book I was waiting for: core cloud concepts are clearly explained using metaphors you won't find in other books; then how to "glue it all together" is well described. Kudos Jeroen.

Very comprehensive and in-depth, yet practical book. Multi-cloud is widely used now and, in 2023, ISO (SC 38) has published the first foundational standard and more are coming up. This is must-have book for all practitioners - management, technical team members - from CTO to developers, Consultants, User agencies and even regulators.

Pros -Concise, well thought out framework for designing a multicloud solution. Starts you off by creating the needed definitions: cloud, multi-cloud?", private, hybrid, etc...Spends a good amount of time talking about the proper way to gather business side data - which is exactly right. Too many of these guides only talk about the "how" and not the "why".I *love* that the author doesn't try to reinvent the wheel but instead leverages the TOGAF framework where needed to supplement EA design considerations.Each section could be it's own book, and the author provides links to additional deeper dive reference materials.Author accurately describes real world pitfalls that a lot of new EAs fall into. For example, in the automation section he talks about making automations TOO complex & trying to automate everything from the get-go: Don't bite off more than you can chew :-)The section break down works for my brain. It makes sense and you can build your multi-cloud environment along with the book like you're going through a cookbook recipe. (Caution: just like a cookbook recipe, you must read the entire book before you start building your cloud!!):INTRO1 - Intro to multi-cloud2 - Business Acceleration3 - Connectivity4 - Service Designs5 - Managing EA Cloud (TOGAF!!)THE BASICS6 - The Landing Zone7 - Resilience & Performance8 - Automation9 - Monitoring & MgmtFINOPS10 - Licensing11 - Resource provisioning & consumption12 - Naming conventions & tagging13 - Managing billingSECURITY14 - Defining security policies15 - IAM16 - Data security policies17 - Security monitoringDEVOPS18 - CI/CD pipeplines19 - AIOps20 - Intro to SRECons -This one book could be 4+ books. The author is covering the 3 big public clouds (AWS, Azure, & GCP) and how to do things in EACH of those clouds. He has done a great job of acknowledging that deficiency & includes a further reading section to beef up those knowledge gaps.By the nature of the beast that is IT, some of this information will become outdated.

This was helpful for me as a source of information in comparing other cloud service providers. Luckily, I was able to get this new edition upon release.
