Your cloud invoice keeps rising while revenue growth stalls and budgets tighten. Engineers spin new services fast but rarely think about long term spending impact. Finance demands answers, yet cost data feels cryptic, scattered, and hours behind. FinOps turns confusion into clarity by aligning engineering, finance, and leadership on cloud value. This book gives you concrete dashboards, guardrails, and workflows that expose waste instantly. Cut compute, storage, and network bills while empowering teams to innovate without fear. Complete visibility stack: Query billing exports with open-source SQL to pinpoint hidden spend drivers. Tagging and allocation playbook: Enforce standards so every dollar maps cleanly to teams and features. Kubernetes and shared-service deep dive: Attribute container costs accurately, even in multi-tenant clusters. AI-powered analysis: Use LLM recipes to surface anomalies and automated savings recommendations. Multi-cloud governance: Compare AWS, Azure, and GCP usage side by side with unified reporting. Practical FinOps by Tailwarden CTO Mohamed Labouardy grounds every concept in day-to-day operations using real billing queries, architecture diagrams, and culture tips. Chapters progress from quick-win optimizations to organisation-wide FinOps programs. You will design cost dashboards, embed accountability loops, and script automated guardrails that prevent overspend before it starts. Finish ready to champion FinOps, speak confidently with finance, and free resources for strategic work. Lower bills become your competitive advantage. Essential for DevOps engineers, cloud architects, and finance leaders determined to master cloud economics.

"Don't setup the build pipeline with clicks, read this bookinstead and thank me later!" - Michal Rutka Learn how to think about your development pipeline as amission-critical application, with techniques for implementing code-driven infrastructure and CI/CD systems using Jenkins, Docker, Terraform, andcloud-native services. In Pipeline as Code, you will master: · Building and deploying a Jenkins cluster from scratch · Writing pipeline as code for cloud native applications · Automating the deployment of Dockerized and Serverless applications · Containerizing applications with Docker and Kubernetes · Deploying Jenkins on AWS, GCP and Azure · Managing, securing and monitoring a Jenkins cluster in production · Key principles for a successful DevOps culture Pipeline as Code is a practical guide to automating your development pipeline in a cloud-native, service-driven world. You'll use the latest infrastructure-as-code tools like Packer and Terraform to develop reliable CI/CD pipelines for numerous cloud-native applications. Follow thisbook's insightful best practices, and you'll soon be delivering software that's quicker to market, faster to deploy, and with less last-minute production bugs. about the technology A good deployment pipeline is the backbone of successful DevOps. Using tools such as Jenkins, CI/CD can seamlessly manage the code of multiple developers, with early accuracy checks and error spotting thanks to automated testing. about the book Pipeline as Code teaches you to build your very first CI/CDpipeline with new automation technologies, modern cloud-hosted services, andclassic tools like Jenkins. It's filled with techniques that author and Jenkins contributor Mohamed Labouardy has developed maintaining thousands of production services. Each chapter includes relevant hands-on examples, including writing a CI/CD workflow for serverless AWS Lambda-based applications, and deploying a centralized logging platform based on the ELK stack. You'll explore cutting-edge methods of running Jenkins inside Kubernetes, and packaging Kubernetes applications within CI/CD pipelines. By the time you're done, you'llbe able to deploy a self-healing Jenkins cluster on cloud and take advantage ofyour new pipeline with essential DevOps practices. about the reader For developers familiar with Jenkins and Docker. Examples in Go. about the author Mohamed Labouardy is the CTO and co-founder of Crew.work, and aDevSecOps evangelist. He is the founder of Komiser.io, an author, open-source contributor, and regular conference speaker.

An effective guide to learning how to build a large-scale distributed application using the wide range of functionalities in GinKey FeaturesExplore the commonly used functionalities of Gin to build web applicationsBecome well-versed with rendering HTML templates with the Gin engineSolve commonly occurring challenges such as scaling, caching, and deploymentBook DescriptionGin is a high-performance HTTP web framework used to build web applications and microservices in Go. This book is designed to teach you the ins and outs of the Gin framework with the help of practical examples. You'll start by exploring the basics of the Gin framework, before progressing to build a real-world RESTful API. Along the way, you'll learn how to write custom middleware and understand the routing mechanism, as well as how to bind user data and validate incoming HTTP requests. The book also demonstrates how to store and retrieve data at scale with a NoSQL database such as MongoDB, and how to implement a caching layer with Redis. Next, you'll understand how to secure and test your API endpoints with authentication protocols such as OAuth 2 and JWT. Later chapters will guide you through rendering HTML templates on the server-side and building a frontend application with the React web framework to consume API responses. Finally, you'll deploy your application on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and learn how to automate the deployment process with a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. By the end of this Gin book, you will be able to design, build, and deploy a production-ready distributed application from scratch using the Gin framework.What you will learnBuild a production-ready REST API with the Gin frameworkScale web applications with event-driven architectureUse NoSQL databases for data persistenceSet up authentication middleware with JWT and Auth0Deploy a Gin-based RESTful API on AWS with Docker and KubernetesImplement a CI/CD workflow for Gin web appsWho this book is forThis book is for Go developers who are comfortable with the Go language and seeking to learn REST API design and development with the Gin framework. Beginner-level knowledge of the Go programming language is required to make the most of this book.

Learn to build, secure, deploy, and manage your serverless application in Golang with AWS Lambda Key FeaturesImplement AWS lambda to build scalable and cost-efficient applications in GoDesign and set the data flow between cloud services and custom business logicLearn to design Lambda functions using real-world examples and implementation scenariosBook DescriptionServerless architecture is popular in the tech community due to AWS Lambda. Go is simple to learn, straightforward to work with, and easy to read for other developers; and now it's been heralded as a supported language for AWS Lambda. This book is your optimal guide to designing a Go serverless application and deploying it to Lambda.This book starts with a quick introduction to the world of serverless architecture and its benefits, and then delves into AWS Lambda using practical examples. You'll then learn how to design and build a production-ready application in Go using AWS serverless services with zero upfront infrastructure investment. The book will help you learn how to scale up serverless applications and handle distributed serverless systems in production.
