I recently obtained a copy of Packt Publishing’s Solution Architect’s Handbook – Third Edition from authors Saurabh Shrivastava and Neelanjali Srivastav. This book is an in-depth guide for architecting solutions and leveraging the benefits of the cloud. This book is 17 chapters of helpful information broken down into segments that are easy to comprehend and reference for anyone that is involved in architecting and designing infrastructure. In this revised edition, the authors have provided a focus on cloud-native technologies, generative AI, and data engineering utilizing the emerging and evolving cloud services to support these solutions. As a security professional, I was happy to see a full chapter on security considerations as well as security being aligned within the DevOps architecture. The final chapters of the guide provide input on handling legacy systems for re-engineering along with development of “soft skills” or operational skills for solutions architects. This book is helpful for anyone that is involved with designing, architecting, and supporting enterprise architectures, or just wants to know more about the technology that supports these infrastructures. Highly recommended.
