Applies lean manufacturing principles across the cloud service delivery chain to enable application and infrastructure service providers to sustainably achieve the shortest lead time, best quality, and value* Applies lean thinking across the cloud service delivery chain to recognize and minimize waste* Leverages lessons learned from electric power industry operations to operations of cloud infrastructure* Applies insights from just-in-time inventory management to operation of cloud based applications* Explains how traditional, Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and Enhanced Telecom Operation Map (eTOM) capacity management evolves to lean computing for the cloud

This book explains why applications running on cloud might not deliver the same service reliability, availability, latency and overall quality to end users as they do when the applications are running on traditional (non-virtualized, non-cloud) configurations, and explains what can be done to mitigate that risk.

While geographic redundancy can obviously be a huge benefit for disaster recovery, it is far less obvious what benefit is feasible and likely for more typical non-catastrophic hardware, software, and human failures.

System reliability, availability, and robustness are often not well understood by professionals. There is a need for a book that will bring together the analysis, design and system implementation principles to help the reader build a reliable system. System Design for Reliability is that book.

This book addresses IS/IT architects, developers, program managers, product managers, and quality managers who are considering or responsible for applications that will be virtualized or deployed on a cloud.
