Ahilan Ponnusamy, Andreas Spanner

Summary

Cloud goals, such as faster time to market, lower total cost of ownership (TCO), capex reduction, self-service enablement, and complexity reduction are important, but organizations often struggle to achieve the desired outcomes. With edge computing gaining momentum across industries and making it possible to move workloads seamlessly between cloud and edge locations, organizations need working recipes to find ways of extracting the most value out of their cloud and edge estate.
This book provides a practical way to build a strategy-aligned operating model while considering various related factors such as culture, leadership, team structures, metrics, intrinsic motivators, team incentives, tenant experience, platform engineering, operations, open source, and technology choices. Throughout the chapters, you’ll discover how single, hybrid, or multicloud architectures, security models, automation, application development, workload deployments, and application modernization can be reutilized for edge workloads to help you build a secure yet flexible technology operating model. The book also includes a case study which will walk you through the operating model build process in a step-by-step way.
By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build your own fit-for-purpose distributed technology operating model for your organization in an open culture way.

Easy Guide to Attachment...

Vanessa Alvarez

If you're like many adults today, you've experienced some kind of loss of a loved one. Whether it was a parent, spouse, sibling, friend, or child, losing someone close hurts. 
People who develop attachment disorders have trouble regulating emotions and forming healthy relationships. They think negatively about themselves and find it hard to trust others. They often withdraw from social situations because they fear rejection. Some develop fears of intimacy and relationships. Others struggle with anger management issues. Still, others have difficulties controlling impulses and acting responsibly. 
But, an attachment disorder doesn't mean you'll never recover. Many people overcome these challenges through therapy and support groups. 
The book describes how attachment disorders affect adults, what they look like, and how to recognize them. It discusses the different types of attachment disorders, such as secure, avoidant, ambivalent/resistant, disorganized, and unresolved, and describes how they are diagnosed and treated. The authors discuss common comorbidities associated with ADs, including anxiety disorder, mood disorder, substance use disorder, eating disorders, personality disorders, and trauma exposure. 
The Vanessa Alvarez explains why people develop these disorders, and he provides advice on how to help someone who suffers from one. She also includes suggestions for parents, teachers, and therapists.

Unrepeatable Beauty: Inner...

Lena Elisabet

Unrepeatable Beauty is a ceremonial invitation to recalibrate how we understand health, empowerment, and the female body. 
It dismantles the emotional architecture behind breast cancer— 
not through confrontation, but through clarity. 
This edition names what medicine often misses: 
• That breasts are not burden baskets 
• That emotional labor is not invisible 
• That sovereignty is not a side effect 
Through poetic diagnostics, mythic insight, and scroll-grade witnessing, Lena Elisabet invites readers to explore: 
• The biology of belief and the science of emotional containment 
• The cultural script of survival, gratitude, and reconstruction 
• The financial architecture of the breast cancer industry 
• The possibility that joy, boundaries, and inner radiance may prevent disease before it begins 
This is not a guide to surviving. 
It’s a guide to not collapsing in the first place. 
Can female empowerment and sovereignty cure breast cancer before it develops? 
This book doesn’t answer the question. 
It dignifies it.
