Multi-Cloud Handbook for Developers

By: Subash Natarajan, Jeveen Jacob

Overview of this book

Unleash the power of cloud computing with Multi-Cloud Handbook for Developers, your guide to mastering the nuances of cloud-native and multi-cloud, covering practical strategies for design, development, and management. Explore the essential concepts, challenges, and methodologies critical for navigating the complex landscape of modern cloud computing. Using core architectural and design principles (such as microservices and 12-factor architecture) and advanced strategies (such as distributed application design patterns, domain-driven design (DDD), and API-first strategies), you’ll learn how to build portable and efficient apps across various cloud platforms. You’ll understand how to leverage Infrastructure as Code (IaC), continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD), GitOps, and DevOps practices, along with containerization and orchestration techniques using Docker and Kubernetes. You’ll also get to grips with data, security, compliance, and cloud cost management strategies in multi-cloud environments. With real-world case studies, best practices, and insights into future trends, this book will equip you with the skills to develop, manage, troubleshoot, and innovate cloud-native applications across diverse cloud platforms, positioning you at the forefront of the cloud computing revolution.

Case studies

Let's now get into some practical examples. Real-world scenarios, or case studies, serve as a valuable resource to understand the application of concepts we have discussed thus far. They allow us to examine specific instances where troubleshooting methodologies are employed to resolve issues that arise in a multi-cloud setup.

In this section, we will walk through a series of case studies. These studies are designed to mirror typical situations that cloud-native developers might encounter while managing applications across different cloud platforms. By studying these cases, we will gain insights into how the effective use of monitoring and observability tools, along with sound troubleshooting strategies, can address complex problems that surface in a multi-cloud environment.

Each case study will present a problem scenario, discuss the approach taken to diagnose and resolve the issue, and highlight the key takeaways and best practices. While these case studies...
