“This book transcends mere technical jargon and dives deep into the essence of cloud computing. Logan begins by laying a solid foundation of cloud computing concepts and services, ensuring readers comprehend the fundamentals before embarking on their transformative journey. The exploration commences with an immersive experience within the AWS cloud. The journey continues to Google Cloud, where Logan expertly highlights its similarities and differences from AWS. No comprehensive cloud education would be complete without an examination of Microsoft Azure, and Logan seamlessly integrates Azure into the learning journey. By collating the knowledge acquired about the previous two clouds, readers gain a holistic understanding of cloud computing. But this book goes beyond technical instruction. In its final part, Logan shares his personal cloud journey, where he underwent a profound transformation from a traditional advisory IT infrastructure architect to a chief cloud architect and professor. Through his captivating narrative, he imparts the secret ingredients of his success: a perpetually grateful disposition and an unwavering commitment to lifelong learning.”
