Cloud Computing is in high demand for IT. Cloud Computing & Cloud Security Basics for AWS, Google & Cloud Comptia+ exam

Regardless of where your organization is in your cloud journey, moving to the cloud is an inevitability in the coming years. The cloud is here to stay, and now is the best time to identify optimal strategies to harness the benefits and mitigate the risks. Cloud Computing Basics is the practical, accessible entry point you have been seeking.

This important and timely text/reference reviews the theoretical concepts, leading-edge techniques and practical tools involved in the latest multi-disciplinary approaches addressing the challenges of big data. Illuminating perspectives from both academia and industry are presented by an international selection of experts in big data science.

The 6 full papers and 1 short paper presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions. They deal with the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of cloud computing, identify emerging research topics, and define the future of cloud computing.

This volume contains the technical papers presented in the workshops associated with the European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, ESOCC 2016, held in Vienna, Austria, in September 2016: 4th International Workshop on Cloud for IoT, CLloT 2016, Second International Workshop on Cloud Adoption and Migration, CloudWays 2016, First International Workshop on Patterns and Pattern Languages for SOCC: Use and Discovery, PATTWORLD 2016, combined with the First International Workshop on Performance and Conformance of Workflow Engines, PEaCE 2016, IFIP WG SOS Workshop 2016 Rethinking Services ResearCH, ReSeRCH 2016. Furthermore, there is a topical section presenting the results of the PhD Symposium. The abstracts of the presentations held at the European Projects Forum, EU Projects 2016, are included in the back-matter of the volume.

This book provides readers with an overview of Cloud Computing, starting with historical background on mainframe computers and early networking protocols, leading to current concerns such as hardware and systems security, performance, emerging areas of IoT, Edge Computing etc. Readers will benefit from the in-depth discussion of cloud computing usage and the underlying architectures.
