eBook Description:
Migrating Large-Scale Services to the Cloud
This book reveals the technical challenges and successful implementation details of migrating MSN, Microsoft’s consumer content portal-a business with 450 million worldwide users-into the Cloud. Following a technique long used in aviation, medicine, and other fields, MSN’s Chief Technical Officer, Eric Passmore, describes the set of release, deployment, monitoring, and mitigation checklists used to build cloud services supporting hundreds of millions of users on Azure, Microsoft’s Public Cloud.
An undertaking of this scale-involving services supported by a large team of engineers-involves unique challenges and risks. This book demonstrates through personal experience how to cut through the theory and provides checklists as a surprisingly simple antidote to the competing methodologies.
