About the Book
Practical Cloud Engineering is a hands-on guide for developers who want to move beyond writing code and learn how to design, deploy, and operate scalable cloud-based systems.
The book focuses on real-world engineering practices rather than theory, showing how modern applications are built, shipped, and maintained in production environments.
Key topics include:
-
cloud-native application architecture;
-
containers and orchestration (Docker & Kubernetes);
-
CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code;
-
monitoring, logging, and reliability engineering;
-
security basics for cloud applications;
-
cost optimization and performance trade-offs.
Written in a clear, practical style, the book bridges the gap between software development and cloud infrastructure, making it ideal for backend developers, DevOps engineers, and tech leads.
