Book Review: Getting Started with Oracle Public Cloud

Book Review:  Getting Started with Oracle Public Cloud by Hemant Kumar Mehta: Publisher- Packt: ISBN- 13: 978-1-78217-810-1

 

Getting Started with Oracle Public Cloud is high level summary of services offered by Oracle public cloud. This book also covers essential requirements to how to start working with Oracle Public Cloud. This book can be used as first step to understand Oracle public cloud.

Book has been divided in chapters very neatly as per the services offered by Oracle Public Cloud. Book also layout few of the best practices of Oracle Public Cloud for its various services.

The book part\, which I like most is chapter 2, which talks about transitioning from on premises to cloud.

 
As name suggest book provides very initial understanding of Oracle Cloud but nevertheless the book is good starting point.

Good book to lay foundation for developer as well as management to start understand Oracle Public Cloud.
