Resilience and Reliability on AWS: Engineering at Cloud Scale

by Jurg van Vliet, Flavia Paganelli, Jasper Geurtsen

Cloud services are just as susceptible to network outages as any other platform. This concise book shows you how to prepare for potentially devastating interruptions by building your own resilient and reliable applications in the public cloud. Guided by engineers from 9apps―an independent provider of Amazon Web Services and Eucalyptus cloud solutions―you’ll learn how to combine AWS with open source tools such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis. This isn’t a book on theory. With detailed examples, sample scripts, and solid advice, software engineers with operations experience will learn specific techniques that 9apps routinely uses in its cloud infrastructures.
