Description

Book Synopsis
Cloud Services, Networking and Management provides a comprehensive overview of the cloud infrastructure and services, as well as their underlying management mechanisms, including data center virtualization and networking, cloud security and reliability, big data analytics, scientific and commercial applications.

Trade Review

Each chapter of the book is a separate self-contained part. The length of each chapter is adequately selected, while the balance between an introduction for beginners and details for advanced readers is excellently preserved. For a majority of the covered topics, a comprehensive survey and thoughtful taxonomy are provided. The presented issues are followed by the exemplary solutions, which are not only conceptual, but very often describe practical deployments. Furthermore, the reference lists are complete, while indicated directions for further studies are relevant and valuable.......Summarizing, I recommend this book as a source of very relevant and valuable information about popular and emerging cloud-related topics. An additional advantage is that security and energy efficiency are also addressed. - (IEEE Communication Magazine- Nov 2016)
