Description
Mastering Cloud Computing: Foundations and Applications Programming is designed for undergraduate students learning to develop cloud computing applications. As technology advances, tomorrow's applications will no longer be confined to a single computer, but will instead be deployed from and reside on virtual servers that can be accessed anywhere, at any time.
This book introduces the principles of distributed and parallel computing underlying cloud architectures, with a focus on virtualization, thread programming, task programming, and map-reduce programming. It provides examples demonstrating these concepts, along with exercises and labs to help you understand how to make design choices and tradeoffs when building applications for virtual cloud environments.
Real-world case studies are included, exploring scientific, business, and energy-efficiency considerations in the development of cloud-based applications.
