"Preface In mid-2010, Zhang Chunyu asked me if I could write a book on cloud computing. While the concept of cloud computing is very popular, there is not enough written material on how to handle this.

Though the price of online browsing was high, I invested most of my living expenses in the computer room. In return, I was gaining more knowledge in this field. With the momentum gained at university, I soon got my first computer with the help of my parents. This only helped to increase my interest in the field. In a short while, I collaborated with my friends to set up a technical organization called ph4nt0m.org, named after my favorite comic character. Though the organization did not last long, it helped groom top talents through communication forums that it initiated. This was the proudest achievement in the 20 years of my life. Due to the openness of the Internet and the advances in technology, I have witnessed nearly all the developments in Internet security in the last decade. During the first five years, I witnessed the technology in penetrating tests, cache overflow, and web hacking; for the next five years"-- Provided by publisher.
