Mastering Cloud Computing: Foundations and Applications Programming, Second Edition serves as a comprehensive introduction for readers seeking to develop applications in the ever-evolving world of cloud computing. As technology advances, applications are no longer confined to a single machine but instead operate from virtual servers, accessible globally at any time. This book equips aspiring developers with the essential tools and knowledge to create effective cloud-based applications. Beyond the foundational principles, the book delves into distributed and parallel computing, providing in-depth coverage of virtualization, thread programming, task programming, and map-reduce techniques.

It also addresses the development of applications for various cloud architectures, highlighting industrial platforms and critical security considerations. To reinforce learning, the text integrates real-world case studies, practical examples, hands-on exercises, and lab activities throughout, allowing readers to apply concepts directly and build their expertise effectively.

Dr. Rajkumar Buyya is Redmond Barry Distinguished Professor and Director of the Cloud Computing and Distributed Systems (CLOUDS) Laboratory at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He is also serving as the founding CEO of Manjrasoft, a spin-off company of the University, commercializing its innovations in Cloud Computing. He has authored over 650 publications and seven textbooks including Mastering Cloud Computing from McGraw Hill, China Machine Press, and Morgan Kaufmann for Indian, Chinese and international markets respectively. Dr. Buyya is one of the most highly-cited authors in Computer Sience and Software Engineering worldwide. “A Scientometric Analysis of Cloud Computing Literature” by German scientists ranked Dr. Buyya as the World's Top-Cited Author and the World's Most-Productive Author in Cloud Computing. He has been recognized as a Web of Science “Highly Cited Researcher” for four consecutive years since 2016. Dr. Buyya was recognized as Scopus Researcher of the Year 2017 with Excellence in Innovative Research Award from Elsevier; "Lifetime Achievement Awards" from two Indian universities, and the “Best of the World,” in the Computing Systems field, by The Australian 2019 Research Review. Software technologies for Grid, Cloud, and Fog computing developed under Dr. Buyya's leadership have gained rapid acceptance and are in use at several academic institutions and commercial enterprises in 40 countries around the world. Dr. Buyya has led the establishment and development of key community activities, including serving as foundation Chair of the IEEE Technical Committee on Scalable Computing and five IEEE/ACM conferences. These contributions and the international research leadership of Dr. Buyya are recognized through the award of the “2009 IEEE Medal for Excellence in Scalable Computing” from the IEEE Computer Society TCSC.
