| Description: | In Building a Future-proof Cloud Infrastructure, network pioneer Silvano Gai shows how to implement Distributed Services Platforms with multiple service modules in diverse hardware. Focusing on business benefits throughout, Gai places Distributed Services Platforms in the context of current trends in network and cloud architecture and virtualization. He compares four leading architectures: Sea of Processors, FPGAs, ASIC, and P4, reviewing the advantages and tradeoffs of each, and illuminating key concepts with intuitive illustrations. By the time students have finished, they’ll know how to evaluate solutions, ask pertinent questions, and plan the best Distributed Services Platform strategies for their own environments. Prepare for the future of cloud infrastructure: Distributed Services Platforms By moving service modules closer to applications, Distributed Services (DS) Platforms will future-proof cloud architectures–improving performance, responsiveness, observability, and troubleshooting. Network pioneer Silvano Gai demonstrates DS Platforms’ remarkable capabilities and guides you through implementing them in diverse hardware. Focusing on business benefits throughout, Gai shows how to provide essential shared services such as segment routing, NAT, firewall, micro-segmentation, load balancing, SSL/TLS termination, VPNs, RDMA, and storage–including storage compression and encryption. He also compares three leading hardware-based approaches–Sea of Processors, FPGAs, and ASICs–preparing you to evaluate solutions, ask the right questions, and plan strategies for your environment.
Building a Future-Proof Cloud Architecture is for network, cloud, application, and storage engineers, security experts, and every technology professional who wants to succeed with tomorrow’s most advanced service architectures. |
