There are thousands of secrets in the cloud computing industry. If revealed, these secrets could help more enterprises succeed with cloud projects their first time and avoid expensive do-overs or the ongoing expenses of a cloud system that “more or less” works, but not really and not ideally.
Cloud technology providers spend billions in marketing dollars to keep you unaware of certain secrets. Wouldn’t it be nice to know cost-optimized ways to leverage cloud computing services that can cut your cloud bill in half? Or, how to leverage cloud service providers using multicloud and hybrid cloud configurations that allow you to shop in a larger pool of technology and get the best price for best-of-breed technology?

For this book to have any value, it must provide information in a candid way and not hold back on issues that many editors and book publishers would find a bit risky. For example, discussing the real value of cloud computing regardless of how the larger cloud providers now define it. Or, looking at the claims of sustainability in the cloud computing and technology markets, and letting you know the current expectations and core benefits with comparisons to what we’re seeing in real world projects.
This book’s primary purpose is to provide the positive realities of what cloud technology can bring to today’s enterprises, and to reveal some often-unexpected downsides. The surprises tend to happen when organizations approach cloud computing incorrectly, or when the public cloud providers themselves don’t have a good handle on how their clients should leverage their technology.

What struck me about the cloud computing market in general is that the billions of dollars spent on cloud marketing seems to spin cloud technology as something that can’t fail. Marketing has a big impact on how organizations leverage the technology. It can also obscure some important information if potential clients don’t know ask the right questions prior to selecting cloud providers or cloud technology. And yet, how can you get the answers if you don’t know the questions to ask?
The most negative of these outcomes, is to select a cloud technology solution that’s under-optimized. It costs way more than it should and does not bring the ultimate business value back to the enterprise. The issue here is that the solution works, which is the only metric that many cloud architects and developers use to measure their success.
More often, under-optimized situations go undetected. The bad solution continues to hurt the business ongoing. Chances are that you have an under-optimized example in your own career. If you don’t, reading this book will help keep you in that rare air.
