商品描述

Discover the pillars of AWS infrastructure automation, starting with API-driven infrastructure concepts and its immediate benefits such as increased agility, automation of the infrastructure life cycle, and flexibility in experimenting with new architectures. With this base established, the book discusses infrastructure-as-code concepts in a general form, establishing principled outcomes such as security and reproducibility. Inescapably, we delve into how these concepts enable and underpin the DevOps movement.

 

The Definitive Guide to AWS Infrastructure Automation begins by discussing services and tools that enable infrastructure-as-code solutions; first stop: AWS's CloudFormation service. You'll then cover the ever-expanding ecosystem of tooling emerging in this space, including CloudFormation wrappers such as Troposphere and orchestrators such as Sceptre, to completely independent third-party tools such as Terraform and Pulumi. As a bonus, you'll also work with AWS' newly-released CDK (Cloud Development Kit). You'll then look at how to implement modular, robust, and extensible solutions across a few examples -- in the process building out each solution with several different tools to compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of each.

 

By the end of the journey, you will have gained a wide knowledge of both the AWS-provided and third-party ecosystem of infrastructure-as-code/provisioning tools, and the strengths and weaknesses of each. You'll possess a mental framework for how to craft an infrastructure-as-code solution to solve future problems based on examples discussed throughout the book. You'll also have a demonstrable understanding of the hands-on operation of each tool, situational appropriateness of each tool, and how to leverage the tool day to day.

 

What You Will Learn

  • Discover the technological and organizational benefits to infrastructure-as-code solutions
  • Examine the overall landscape of infrastructure-as-code tooling and solutions available to consumers of AWS services
  • See the strengths and weaknesses of these tools relative to one another as examined through hands-on implementation of several solutions
  • Gain hands-on experience, best practices, and tips and tricks learned through several years' real-world experience delivering solutions using these very tools in a wide variety of scenarios
  • Engineer solid solutions that leave room for new requirements and changes without requiring needless refactoring

Who This Book Is For

DevOps engineers, cloud engineers and architects focused on the AWS ecosystem, software engineers/developers working within the AWS ecosystem, and engineering leaders looking for best practices.

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

探索AWS基礎架構自動化的支柱,從API驅動的基礎架構概念開始,並介紹其立即效益,如增加的靈活性、基礎架構生命週期的自動化以及對新架構進行實驗的靈活性。在建立了這個基礎之後,本書以一般形式討論基礎架構即代碼的概念,確立了安全性和可重現性等原則性結果。不可避免地,我們深入探討這些概念如何啟用和支撐DevOps運動。

《AWS基礎架構自動化的權威指南》首先討論了支持基礎架構即代碼解決方案的服務和工具;首站:AWS的CloudFormation服務。然後,您將涵蓋在這個領域不斷擴大的工具生態系統,包括CloudFormation封裝器(如Troposphere)和協調器(如Sceptre),以及完全獨立的第三方工具(如Terraform和Pulumi)。作為額外的福利,您還將使用AWS新發布的CDK(Cloud Development Kit)。然後,您將查看如何在幾個示例中實施模塊化、強大且可擴展的解決方案,並使用多種不同的工具來構建每個解決方案,以比較和對比每個工具的優點和缺點。

通過這段旅程的結束,您將對AWS提供的基礎架構即代碼/配置工具和第三方工具的生態系統以及每個工具的優點和缺點有廣泛的了解。您將擁有一個思維框架,根據本書中討論的示例,如何打造基礎架構即代碼解決方案來解決未來的問題。您還將對每個工具的實際操作、每個工具的情境適用性以及如何日常利用工具有可證明的理解。

您將學到什麼

- 探索基礎架構即代碼解決方案的技術和組織上的好處
- 檢視基於AWS服務的基礎架構即代碼工具和解決方案的整體情況
- 通過實施多個解決方案的實踐,了解這些工具相對於彼此的優點和缺點
- 通過多年實際經驗中使用這些工具在各種場景中交付解決方案,獲得實踐經驗、最佳實踐和技巧
- 設計堅固的解決方案,以滿足新需求和變更,而無需進行不必要的重構

本書適合對象

DevOps工程師、專注於AWS生態系統的雲工程師和架構師、在AWS生態系統中工作的軟體工程師/開發人員,以及尋找最佳實踐的工程領導者。
