After learning about the web development I went to explore on the cloud offerings. This book being a 2nd edition interested me in terms of what AWS now is and what it has to offer.The book did not disappoint me - it offers a comprehensive introduction into the AWS Cloud offerings, yet it serves a beacon or guide in them.The cornerstone is AWS's vision into the proper cloud operations (the so called Well-architectured Framework), well covered and you are reminded to use it.I am left with an impression that the author covers just enough grounds, not more or less, to read quickly about an offering, and understand it while you prepare for a meting and firmly conclude whether one or another product should be used on your project. This is the core of the book in my opinion.But it does not end there, the book offers insights into tools or services internals, and how to configure or use the offering. So if say there was a mutual acceptance of the approach then you can find out on the next steps. I need to add that I cannot see this book as a user manual or something that will teach you a new skill or tool to use, you would need additional help to do the actual work.Another nice surprise is that the book does not stop at the common staples, but also ventures into the Containers, Kubernetes, Blockchain, ML/AI, IoT , Microservices and more.Toward the end of the book there is a chapter on a use case scenario that I found important to solidify one's skills and it serves as a refresher, yet, I think it made me look at problems from a different angle, the AWS angle.In summary, this book is from Solution Architects to the future Solution Architects

This is a great book for solutions architects who are looking to venture in to AWS. The book is packed with much information about various AWS services and especially liked how the content was presented. it is very engaging and especially liked chapter 16 - Building an AWS application will give a hands on experience to try various AWS services.

As a techie with a solid 15+ years under my belt, mostly slinging code with C# and .NET, I've weathered my way through a heap of tech literature. When I say "AWS for Solutions Architects, 2nd Edition” is up there with the best, I really mean it!With the cloud taking over our tech world like wildfire, knowing your way around a beast like AWS isn't just nice-to-have anymore; it's practically a survival skill! This book? It's like an all-access backstage pass, a map that'll guide you through every nook and cranny of AWS, showing you how it can be used to juice up, scale, and flip a business on its head.The authors - Saurabh, Neelanjali, Alberto, and Imtiaz - have really outdone themselves. They've covered a ton of ground on AWS, yet they've managed to strike a sweet balance between the nitty-gritty theory and hands-on, rubber-meets-the-road practicality. Newbies and pros alike will find a ton of value in this guide.What stood out to me was how they laced practical examples and real-world scenarios throughout the book. You know, the kind of stuff that transforms the usually hair-pulling topics like migration and scaling into a more, "Aha! I got this!" kind of experience. Plus, the language is clean and easy-going, which certainly helped keep my eyes glued to the pages.And oh boy, the sections on building cloud-native apps? Pure gold! The book puts a solid emphasis on best practices and keeps you updated on the freshest features and services in AWS. Now, that's something I didn't know I needed until I read it!Just a quick heads-up though. If you're completely new to AWS or cloud computing, you might want to brush up on the basics before diving in. The book's written in a friendly, approachable manner, but having some groundwork done will help you take in the whole nine yards.All in all, "AWS for Solutions Architects, 2nd Edition" is a seriously impressive guide. If you want to wrap your head around AWS and learn how to build, scale, and really rock it in the cloud, this is your book! It's the kind of thing every software engineer, solutions architect, or anyone even remotely interested in AWS, should have on their shelf. Can't recommend it enough!

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
