Book excerpt: Overview Jolt-award winning Continuous Integration author and consultant Paul M. Duvall trains infrastructure developers on how to create a fully-automated continuous delivery system in Amazon Web Services (AWS) using DevOps best practices and tools. Description Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the leading cloud computing provider. AWS began selling its cloud services to startups but has rapidly evolved into serving large enterprises. While large companies can migrate their infrastructure to AWS over a period of months or years, the real value comes from properly leveraging key features of AWS, such as programmable infrastructure, elasticity and ephemeral resources. When companies bring a DevOps mindset to AWS, they can achieve the benefits of having always-releasable software, continuous feedback and reduction of the overall lead time. DevOps in AWS focuses on how to implement the key architectural construct in continuous delivery: the deployment pipeline. Viewers receive step-by-step instructions on how to do this in AWS based on an open-source software system that is in production. They also learn the DevOps practices teams can embrace to increase their effectiveness. About the Instructor Paul M. Duvall is the Chairman and CTO of Stelligent. Stelligent is an expert in Cloud Delivery solutions in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and has been working with AWS for over five years. Paul is the principal author of Continuous Integration: Improving Software Quality and Reducing Risk (Addison-Wesley, 2007) and a 2008 Jolt Award Winner.
