Discover the methodologies and best practices for getting started with HashiCorp tools, including Terraform, Vault, and Packer. The book begins with an introduction to the infrastructure-as-code concept while establishing the need for automation and management technologies. You’ll go over hands-on deployment, configuration, and best practices for Terraform, Packer, Vault, Nomad, and Consul. You’ll then delve deeper into developing automation code using Terraform for automating AWS/Azure/GCP public cloud tasks; advanced topics include leveraging Vault for secrets management and Packer for image management. Along the way you will also look at Nomad and Consul for managing application orchestration along with network interconnectivity. In each chapter you will cover automated infrastructure and application deployment on the VM/container base ecosystem. The book provides sample code and best-practice guidance for developers and architects to look at infrastructure-as-code adoption from a holistic viewpoint. All the code presented in the book is available in the form of scripts, which allow you to try out the examples and extend them in interesting ways. What You Will Learn Get an overview of the architecture of Terraform, Vault, Packer, Nomad, and Consul Follow hands-on steps for enabling Terraform, Vault, Packer, Nomad, and Consul Automate various services on the public cloud, including AWS, Azure, and GCP Who This Book Is For Developers, architects, and administrators who want to learn about infrastructure-as-code automation.

There is no easy and consistent way to introduce a beginner to Google Cloud and help him or her navigate the steep learning curve of the cloud platform. Again, it has never been easy to find a book that focuses on an aspect of Google Cloud and give a helping hand to gain the requisite practical experience to "takeoff" on your own. This book introduces beginner and intermediate users alike to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). I believe that one of the best ways to gain practical experience is to focus on infrastructure as a service and practice how to configure the important services in this domain. By this, I hope to bring the materials necessary to experience Google Cloud infrastructure in one place to make it easy for students to learn Google Cloud in a short time. As a textbook, I hope to explain the concepts behind the common but important infrastructure resources and services.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 34th International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Euro-Par 2023, held in Limassol, Cyprus, in August/September 2023. The 49 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 164 submissions. They are covering the following topics: programming, compilers and performance; scheduling, resource management, cloud, edge computing, and workflows; architectures and accelerators; data analytics, AI, and computational science; theory and algorithms; multidisciplinary, and domain-specific and applied parallel and distributed computing.

Flexibility and security. Two characteristics that cannot be compromised in the age of multi-cloud and DevOps, yet most secrets management tools were designed around the idea that both cannot be achieved together. Enter HashiCorp Vault, built around the philosophy that securing secrets is more effective when the interaction of a secrets management service aligns with other DevOps tools available today. Vault has quickly become the de-facto solution in secrets management over recent years, finding its way into many Global 2000 companies. This book will cover multiple aspects of Vault, from planning the service, architectural design, and deployment of Vault, to managing the service once it is up and running. With a combined 40 years of experience working in technology and more than three years working specifically with Vault, Bryan and Dan walk users through the process of designing and building a production-ready Vault service.
