Download or read book Managing Distributed Cloud Applications and Infrastructure written by Theo Lynn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT), combined with greater heterogeneity not only online in cloud computing architectures but across the cloud-to-edge continuum, is introducing new challenges for managing applications and infrastructure across this continuum. The scale and complexity is simply so complex that it is no longer realistic for IT teams to manually foresee the potential issues and manage the dynamism and dependencies across an increasing inter-dependent chain of service provision. This Open Access Pivot explores these challenges and offers a solution for the intelligent and reliable management of physical infrastructure and the optimal placement of applications for the provision of services on distributed clouds. This book provides a conceptual reference model for reliable capacity provisioning for distributed clouds and discusses how data analytics and machine learning, application and infrastructure optimization, and simulation can deliver quality of service requirements cost-efficiently in this complex feature space. These are illustrated through a series of case studies in cloud computing, telecommunications, big data analytics, and smart cities.

Download or read book Cloud Without Compromise written by Paul Zikopoulos and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many companies claim to have "gone to the cloud," yet returns from their efforts are meager or worse. Why? Because they've defined cloud as a destination, not a capability. Using cloud as a single-vendor, one-stop destination is fiction; in practice, today's organizations use a mosaic of capabilities across several vendors. Your cloud strategy needs to follow a hybrid multicloud model, one that delivers cloud's value at destinations you choose. This practical guide provides business leaders and C-level executives with guidance and insights across a wide range of cloud-related topics, such as distributed cloud, microservices, and other open source solutions for strengthening operations. You'll apply in-the-field best practices and lessons learned as you define your hybrid cloud strategy and drive your company's transformation strategy. Learn cloud fundamentals and patterns, including basic concepts and history Get a framework for cloud acumen phases to value-plot your cloud future Know which questions to ask a cloud provider before you sign Discover potential pitfalls for everything from the true cost of a cloud solution to adopting open source the right way

Download or read book Distributed Cloud written by Weiqi Tian and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-11-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hybrid and multi-cloud are already powerful, but they cannot solve some problems such as interoperability, portability, and inconsistency. Moreover, the central controller of the Distributed Cloud suggested by Gartner is bound to a cloud provider, thus cannot solve the problems of Vendor-Locking and operation/integration neutrality issues, etc. This book proposes a different architecture that takes a single central control point, OneCenter, residing anywhere. OneCenter is independent and not bound to any cloud provider. OneCenter manages geo-distributed infrastructures from any providers in a neutral, consistent, and unified approach globally. About the Book This book proposes a new creative architecture with four essential layers including infrastructure, abstraction, resource, and workload layer. First, this architecture elaborates a versatile OneCenter, depicts the concept of an elastic distributed site, and expands the scope of intelligent scheduling/provisioning of computing, networking, and storage resources to cloud, on-premises, and telco edge computing worldwide. Second, this book designs a new modern big data platform and a scalable distributed conference edge computing platform based on the Distributed Cloud architecture natively. Finally, this book also presents some new innovative points of cloud architecture such as the talent VDC and GVPC. Those are advantages and features that all conventional cloud platforms lack and are also the future development trend of cloud computing. About the Technology In the Distributed Cloud, OneCenter leverages SD-WAN, VXLAN, EVPN, and OVN's advanced routing, connection, stitching, extension, and multi-tenant capacities to implement the GVPC for inner and inter-site communication. Unified Resource Manager is used to manage and orchestrate the diverse heterogeneous underlying infrastructures to implement the unified Bare Metal, Virtual Machine, and Container workload across geo-distributed sites worldwide. OneStorage is implemented with an efficient multi-tier block storage system and integrates multiple S3-compatible globally available object storage systems to meet customers' compliance, costs, and business requirements. OneData greatly benefits from the modern data architecture with Hybrid Data Mesh and Data Fabric architecture. Besides, Telco edge computing is also involved to innovate and empower edge computing in the Distributed Cloud.
