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

Who is this book for?

This book is for architects and lead engineers involved in architecting multi-cloud environments, with a focus on getting governance right to stay in control of developments in multi-cloud. Basic knowledge of different cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP, VMWare, and OpenStack) and understanding of IT governance is necessary.

What you will learn

  • Get to grips with the core functions of multiple cloud platforms
  • Deploy, automate, and secure different cloud solutions
  • Design network strategy and get to grips with identity and access management for multi-cloud
  • Design a landing zone spanning multiple cloud platforms
  • Use automation, monitoring, and management tools for multi-cloud
  • Understand multi-cloud management with the principles of BaseOps, FinOps, SecOps, and DevOps

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.

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.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

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.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
