Review: The new authority on cloud adoption practices for business - The enterprise IT world has been screaming out for a book like this for a long time. Cloud practitioners will be familiar with the challenges of launching any size of cloud strategy in companies with on-premise IT, and the same difficulties and obstacles appear over and over. Cloud providers have offered whitepapers and generic presentations for years but mostly the information is fragmented and can be difficult to absorb in terms of converting to practical, actionable steps. Orban's book is the first time I've seen all the information you need in one place, and is broadly targeted to readers in an IT leadership role who will face the many questions around adoption and implementation. The book spends the first part dissecting the different adoption styles in a pragmatic way and then the remainder focuses on best practices and insights from companies that have completed the journey. The author made the wise decision to develop short chapters packed with information, so it's easy to absorb a few pages at a time. The writing style is clear and concise and he talks enthusiastically on a subject that can be difficult to convey. This is an extraordinarily broad and fluid area of IT and it's a truly admirable effort to corral all the important elements into one place. I've read many books on cloud and currently this is really "The Bible" when it comes to adoption and the real-life challenges of migration from on-premise solutions. This should be compulsory reading for anyone starting their corporate cloud journey - it will save a huge amount of time and frustration.
Review: Great book (must read) for any leader who want their ... - Great book (must read) for any leader who want their organization to move to cloud. It outlines framework that can be planned, road mapped and executed. It helps to understand different migration approaches, benefits of each and how to execute cloudification. It also helps on how to start building team, how to choose partners, and best practices on all around cloud programs. This is for organizations while are willing to go to cloud. In addition, it also has lot of insights from real customers who did this in last (5-7) years. That matters most - to learn new stuff from new experiences and newer approaches. Thank you Stephen Orban for writing real clouding business in this book.
