Description

This book, Hardening Azure Applications, examines the techniques and engineering principles critical to the cloud architect, developer, and business stakeholder as they envision and harden their Azure cloud applications to ensure maximum reliability and availability when deployed at scale. While the techniques elaborated in the book are implemented in .NET and optimized for Azure, the principles herein will be valuable and directly applicable to other cloud-based platforms such as Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform.

Applications come in a variety of forms, from simple apps that can be built and deployed in hours to mega-scale apps that need significantly higher engineering rigor and robust organizations to deliver. So, how do you build such massively scalable applications to keep pace with traffic demands while always being “online” with five 9s of availability? The authors take you step by step through the process of evaluating and building hardened cloud-ready applications, the type of applications your stakeholders and customers demand. For example, it is easy to say that an application should be available “all the time,” but it is very important to understand what each level of 9 for availability means and the resulting implications on engineering and resources.
