Cloud Reliability Engineering: Technologies and Tools
暫譯: 雲端可靠性工程：技術與工具

雲端可靠性工程是雲端服務的一個重要議題。雲端服務提供商透過服務水平協議（SLA）來保證計算、儲存和應用程式的性能和正常運作時間。雲端可靠性工程：技術與工具提供了案例研究，探討雲端服務、其挑戰以及雲端服務提供商所使用的可靠性機制。這些案例研究為讀者提供了在自身工作中利用雲端可靠性和可用性需求的技術。本書既有概念性也有應用性，解釋了可靠性理論以及雲端服務公司用來提供高可用性的最佳實踐。它還探討了負載平衡和雲端安全性。

本書由研究者和實務工作者撰寫，章節全面研究了雲端可靠性和可用性問題及其解決方案。討論了各種可靠性類別分佈及其對雲端可靠性的影響。可靠性區塊圖的一個重要方面被用來對雲端基礎設施的低可靠性進行分類，並指出可以進行改進的地方以降低系統的故障率。這種技術可以在設計和功能階段中使用，以確定系統的低可靠性並提供目標改進。負載平衡的可靠性被檢視為遷移過程或使用虛擬機。用於識別輕載目的節點的方式可以透過使用遺傳算法來優化，該節點是進行過程/虛擬機遷移的對象。為了分析安全風險和可靠性，提出了一種新技術以最小化密鑰和安全系統的數量。章節還概述了雲端測試方法，並且一個案例研究討論了測試的可靠性、可安裝性和安全性。本書是一部綜合性著作，結合了研究、理論和最佳實踐，用於設計可靠的雲端可用性和性能。
