    Abstract: Cloud platforms are changing big data processing for the better, but there's one significant challenge: the problem of managing costs. Organizations used to on-premises solutions are often surprised by expense overruns for various tasks in the cloud, due to the ever-increasing amounts of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data they collect and use. With this comprehensive guide, IT leaders, data architects, data engineers, and data analysts will examine several factors that affect cloud-based data processing costs. You'll also come away with a collection of financial governance best practices. Through the course of this ebook, you'll explore three areas essential to any successful governance plan: cost controls, traceability, and predictability. Authors Amit Duvedi, Balaji Mohanam, Andy Still, and Andrew Ash cover the processes, tools, and systems that will enable you to perform effective financial governance of your data processing platform. Learn how cloud-based financial governance differs from on-premises solutions Examine the way your company currently uses a cloud data platform Explore available cloud provider tools, third-party cloud management tools, and the new breed of analytic data platforms Dive into the stages of the financial governance lifecycle-to understand, control, and then optimize activity in your cloud platform Control your cloud costs while still meeting rising business demand and SLAs

    Abstract: Automated traffic is a major factor in the modern internet, especially for website owners. Bots, spiders, and scrapers now exceed the amount of traffic from human users, and this trend is expected to continue in the number and sophistication of bot types. With this handbook, Intechnica co-founder Andy Still provides guidelines to help public-facing sites identify and manage various types of automated traffic. Some bots are beneficial, such as automated traffic triggered by direct human action, but many of them are highly profitable ventures run by organized criminal groups. Bots can negatively impact your site and your business by: Fraudulently taking advertising revenue without displaying ads to potential customers Stealing website content for competitors to use on their own sites Publishing offensive content on your comments or forum pages Accessing your users' personal data for use elsewhere Creating fake accounts to take unfair advantage of special offers Skewing analytics that would lead you to make invalid business decisions Managing and Mitigating Bots helps you determine which traffic is non-human and requires action, and then guides you through the process of defining a bot-handling policy tailored to the type of bot traffic you identify.

    Abstract: For many developers, the Domain Name System (DNS) is simply a black box: something you rely on without knowing how it works. But when it comes to optimizing system performance and delivery, DNS is a very valuable tool indeed. If your company is ready to implement a DevOps culture, or is considering it, this practical report shows you how DNS can help you build the type of dynamic, fast-changing, and reliable system that DevOps demands. Author Andy Still, co-founder of Intechnica, a vendor-independent IT performance consultancy, shows you how to initiate a DNS-based DevOps approach in your company. Once you understand how DNS works, you'll learn how you can use it to streamline deployment pipelines, maximize availability, and mitigate performance degradations. Learn three key DevOps principles for delivering speed and reliability Use DNS to create flexible systems that support changing backend systems, and systems hosted in multiple locations Get advice for selecting a DNS provider, and for implementing an effective DevOps monitoring solution Manage DNS changes with a dynamic API so you can iterate and test the code in the same manner as application code Examine how Intechnica uses DNS to optimize deployments and minimize risk within its own DevOps culture

    Abstract: If you're planning your company's first foray into the cloud, you've no doubt heard many compelling reasons for making the move. But one area companies often overlook is Internet performance: optimizing the route that data takes across the public Internet to reach your systems, a stretch known as the middle mile. In this report, author and middle-mile expert Andy Still maps your cloud journey from initial preparation to having your own highly performant cloud-based system. At each stage, you'll learn the best methods for optimizing Internet performance by understanding the nature of your application, the characteristics of your end users, and the way various cloud providers can connect one to the other. Not all cloud vendors are created equally and, despite what they'd like you to think, it's not necessary to tie yourself to a single provider. Pick up a copy of this report and learn why the best Internet performance may involve using a combination of components from multiple cloud vendors.

    Abstract: Moving your web operations to the cloud means having less control over the way your website operates. That's not a bad thing-it's actually advantageous given today's larger audiences and wider variety of media-but in an era when reliability is key to user satisfaction, how can you manage performance when third-party services run your site? In this O'Reilly report, author Andy Still points out performance risks associated with connectivity, data centers, third-party SaaS tools, as well as content delivery networks (CDNs) and other cloud-based systems. You'll then learn several methods to help you identify and mitigate these risks. This report explains why you should: Embrace the cloud: the advantages of using these systems outweigh the disadvantages Understand the nature of cloud services you intend to use Closely monitor system elements that you don't control, with Real User Monitoring (RUM) and other tools Use a CDN and cache data as close to users as possible Retain an independent DNS provider, and use different cloud providers or CDNs for different segments of your audience Architect your systems to gracefully handle potential cloud service failures
