作者: Barrie Sosinsky Cloud Computing Bible is Wiley's general introduction to an important topic in large book format. A Bible is a book that is meant to be read by knowledgeable readers who are not subject matter experts in a topic but want to have an in-depth introduction to the various individual subjects contained within. It is assumed that the reader of this book may be a generalist, a developer, a system architect, a programmer, or perhaps something else, and therefore the content in a Bible must contain information for each member of this book's audience. Cloud computing is a vast topic that encompasses many different subjects. To adequately describe what cloud computing offers, we must discuss infrastructure, service-oriented architectures, social networking, unique protocols, open and standard Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and dozens of other topics. Even a large book can address many of these topics in only an introductory manner. However, this book tries to give you at least the basic information you need on all the related topics, as well as pointers to additional information sources. In the last several years, many books have been published on cloud computing. Each book has attempted to present some element of the topic for a particular audience. In this book, I do not make the assumption that you are a particular type of reader, nor do I assume that you are approaching the topic with a fresh view. This Bible was written to serve as the introductory course in the topic at a university level, but it is not a textbook. You can pick up and read this book at any particular chapter because the material doesn't build upon itself. Many topics in this book are unique to this book and are based on published information that is both current and timely. In researching this book, I attempted to bring into the discussion all the new trends, experiments, and products that have made cloud computing such a dynamic area.
