This review is from: Host Your Web Site In The Cloud: Amazon Web Services Made Easy: Amazon EC2 Made Easy (Kindle Edition)

I bought this book expecting to learn how to move my website into the cloud. I already had a vague understanding of Amazon’s AWS, and was looking for a straightforward explanation of the best practices and methods for moving away from a standard hosting setup. However, this book provided NONE of that.

Get this book if you want to learn more about each of the major components of AWS, and write PHP scripts to do simple operations. But do NOT get this book if you’re looking for practical advice on how to host a web site on AWS. For example, there’s no discussion about using SSL certificates within AWS, only a couple of paragraph about public IP’s and directing your DNS entries to it, nothing about any considerations for Apache, Tomcat, Jetty, or other servers. The coverage is pretty much 98% all about how to do the very basic operations with AWS.

Summary: You can learn everything this book presents for free on the Amazon’s AWS website. If you’re looking to move an existing website to AWS, this book won’t really give you any help unless you don’t even know what AWS is.

Finally! Clear & Simple Explanation of Moving to Cloud Web Hosting, September 27, 2010
By 
Chris Smith (Canada) –
This review is from: Host Your Web Site In The Cloud: Amazon Web Services Made Easy: Amazon EC2 Made Easy (Paperback)

This is the “official” Amazon EC2 and S3 book, and it does a fantastic job of covering the basics.

If you’ve been intimidated by cloud computing and hosting websites on the cloud, fear no longer! This book will walk you through everything you need to know to transition from dedicated servers or shared hosting accounts and into supper affordable cloud hosting where you can rent servers for just pennies per hour and instantly go from 1 server to 20 and then back to 1 as dictated by traffic.

If you’re still leasing servers for hundreds of dollars a month each, if commissioning a new server takes days rather than minutes, if you pay through the nose for bandwidth, if your site or web applications can’t handle sudden traffic spikes then this book is for you. You don’t to be a VC funded Silicon Valley start-up, or a Top 1000 website to take advantage of the power, flexibility and cost savings found in cloud computing. Anybody can do it.

Don't be. Jeff leads you through the process step by step. <br/><br/>The previous review is right on - you """don't (need) to be a VC funded Silicon Valley start-up, or a Top 1000 website to take advantage of the power, flexibility and cost savings found in cloud computing.""" <br/><br/>Although not just anybody can do it (such as my 84 year old mother) Jeff has done an outstanding job making it easy. If you are a reasonably web-savy mid-level PHP familiar programmer (my mother is not) you'll be up and running building highly scalable cloud-based solutions in hours. It's easier than fixing pizza.... <br/><br/>Oh -- and if you have multiple programmers running around and want to keep a copy of the book for yourself - buy more than one copy.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The best book written on how to get started in the Amazon Cloud, September 30, 2010
By 
Michael D. Mcevoy (Los Gatos, CA United States) –
(REAL NAME)
  

Amazon Verified Purchase(http://www.amazon.com/gp/community-help/amazon-verified-purchase', ‘AmazonHelp’, ‘width=400,height=500,resizable=1,scrollbars=1,toolbar=0,status=1′);return false; “>What’s this?)
This review is from: Host Your Web Site In The Cloud: Amazon Web Services Made Easy: Amazon EC2 Made Easy (Paperback)

My teams in two companies have now built solutions that used AWS and the Amazon Cloud Solution including systems that serve users with millions of page-views and mobile solutions serving the US, Mexico, China, Taiwan, Korea, ….

I WISH I HAD HAD THIS BOOK FOR THE TEAM!

Amazon’s documentation and support is excellent, but Jeff Barr has put it all together in a precise, complete, and well documented roadmap.

Have you been intimidated by cloud computing and hosting your solution in the cloud? Don’t be. Jeff leads you through the process step by step.

The previous review is right on – you “”"don’t (need) to be a VC funded Silicon Valley start-up, or a Top 1000 website to take advantage of the power, flexibility and cost savings found in cloud computing.”"”

Although not just anybody can do it (such as my 84 year old mother) Jeff has done an outstanding job making it easy. If you are a reasonably web-savy mid-level PHP familiar programmer (my mother is not) you’ll be up and running building highly scalable cloud-based solutions in hours. It’s easier than fixing pizza….

Oh — and if you have multiple programmers running around and want to keep a copy of the book for yourself – buy more than one copy. Someone already borrowed mine which means it will be MIA for at least a month.
