## Description

Improve your Azure architecture practice and set out on a cloud and cloud-native journey with this Azure cloud native architecture guide Key Features Discover the key drivers of successful Azure architecture Implement architecture maps as a compass to tackle any challenge Understand architecture maps in detail with the help of practical use cases Book Description Azure offers a wide range of services that enable a million ways to architect your solutions. Complete with original maps and expert analysis, this book will help you to explore Azure and choose the best solutions for your unique requirements. Starting with the key aspects of architecture, this book shows you how to map different architectural perspectives and covers a variety of use cases for each architectural discipline. You'll get acquainted with the basic cloud vocabulary and learn which strategic aspects to consider for a successful cloud journey. As you advance through the chapters, you'll understand technical considerations from the perspective of a solutions architect. You'll then explore infrastructure aspects, such as network, disaster recovery, and high availability, and leverage Infrastructure as Code (IaC) through ARM templates, Bicep, and Terraform. The book also guides you through cloud design patterns, distributed architecture, and ecosystem solutions, such as Dapr, from an application architect's perspective. You'll work with both traditional (ETL and OLAP) and modern data practices (big data and advanced analytics) in the cloud and finally get to grips with cloud native security. By the end of this book, you'll have picked up best practices and more rounded knowledge of the different architectural perspectives. What you will learn Gain overarching architectural knowledge of the Microsoft Azure cloud platform Explore the possibilities of building a full Azure solution by considering different architectural perspectives Implement best practices for architecting and deploying Azure infrastructure Review different patterns for building a distributed application with ecosystem frameworks and solutions Get to grips with cloud-native concepts using containerized workloads Work with AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) and use it with service mesh technologies to design a microservices hosting platform Who this book is for This book is for aspiring Azure Architects or anyone who specializes in security, infrastructure, data, and application architecture. If you are a developer or infrastructure engineer looking to enhance your Azure knowledge, you'll find this book useful.

Review: Get an Editor…Shoddy - In my opinion when a book is filled with spelling errors, acronyms not spelled out for the first time and other nonsense I wonder about the technical accuracy. I couldn’t make it past page 8 without encountering errors in this book. Get an editor. Have the editor actually look at your text and diagrams before publishing. If you did employ an editor, fire them and get a new one.
Review: I found the book to be a great standalone resource - Have you ever taken a browse through the available resources in Azure and noticed that there appear to be many solutions for similar problem domains? Have you ever wondered which resources work well together for a particular solution, and the criteria for choosing them? The Azure Cloud Native Architecture Mapbook takes a hearty swing at providing some answers. Although primarily targeted at Azure Architects, the book is also very useful for the developer. The book is broken into 3 sections and 8 total chapters. 1. The first section focuses on Solutions and Infrastructure and is approximately 50% of the book. I was initially surprised that the first chapter started with an overview of various architect roles but, as the author stated, he has seen turf wars between roles that can be avoided by understanding the broader picture. For me, the most useful part of the first chapter was the introduction to the Azure architecture maps - I found these to be a very useful visual aid that helps quickly identify the available services and components for a solution and how they relate. The remainder of the section dives into various Solution Architectures, approaches to Infrastructure Design, and how to approach Infrastructure Deployment using Infrastructure as Code. Each solution starts with a Map, which is then explored to a level where you can feel confident in choosing the correct service for the problem at hand. Following on, a number of concrete use cases are discussed that help assist in the creation of reference architectures for various scenarios. 2. The second section focuses on patterns for building distributed architectures, focusing on application, data and security. Each of high-level topics has a chapter dedicated to it and revisits the Maps from section 1, drilling down into specific areas and then discussing relevant design patterns. I found this approach useful as, instead of proposing a "one-size-fits-no-one" style solution, each case is discussed and the reasons for choosing one approach versus another is analyzed. This helps the reader construct a solution tailored to their needs. 3. The final section is shorter than the other two and summaries the architectures discussed earlier, but presents them in the context of uses cases drawn from many industries. This section is full of links to external Microsoft Azure Architecture documentation that explores the industry scenarios in more depth. Overall, I found the book to be a great standalone resource that also acts as a gateway to the documentation on Microsoft's architecture site. I will refer to it often as I build my solutions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Complete map of all Azure Services
*by D***E on April 1, 2021*

The book is a complete map of azure services, which drives you to the selection of the more adequate services for your needs and constraints. Maps are explained with examples and look at Azure Services from several perspectives, so that solutions arise as intersection points of choices performed in various maps. I found particularly useful the chapters on infrastructures. However, the map book is complete and contains also detailed maps about application, security, and data services. While there are interesting zoom-in on several technical details, examples are described mainly from a Solution Architect perspective. The book is not for beginners, but for people that already know at least the language of modern cloud technology, some concepts are explained with enough detail, but others like microservices and Kubernetes are not and it is assumed that the reader already knows them. About 70-00 pages more for giving a better description of all technologies described in the maps would have improved the book, a lot. This is the only reason why I give 4 stars instead of 5.
