商品描述
This book offers an introduction to cloud computing and serverless computing for students, researchers and R&D organizations through several practical examples. Rather than focusing exclusively on the computational issues related to cloud computing, the authors focus on addressing the multidisciplinary applications of cloud computing for daily research work in public institutions and private companies in fields such as archaeology, geosciences, computer sciences, medicine and physics. The book also discusses the emergence of serverless computing over the last three years as a means to make computational infrastructures more apparent to users, avoiding the need to concern one's self with the type of server or computing machine needed to perform a computing task. These topics are presented from the perspective of users, researchers and decision-makers, and are approached based on the authors' collective experience on the use and adoption of cloud computing.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書透過幾個實用的範例,為學生、研究人員和研發機構提供雲端運算和無伺服器運算的介紹。作者不僅專注於與雲端運算相關的計算問題,而是著重於解決雲端運算在考古學、地球科學、計算機科學、醫學和物理等領域的多學科應用,以支持公共機構和私營公司的日常研究工作。本書還討論了在過去三年中無伺服器運算的興起,作為一種使計算基礎設施對用戶更為明顯的手段,避免用戶需要關心執行計算任務所需的伺服器或計算機類型。這些主題從用戶、研究人員和決策者的角度進行呈現,並根據作者在雲端運算的使用和採用方面的集體經驗進行探討。
