by Eric Knorr, InfoWorld.comSo many vendors have jumped on the cloud computing bandwagon, the phrase already risks jumping the shark. The problem is that “cloud computing” has two distinctly different meanings: The use of commercial Internet-based services, and the architecture for building and deploying such services.InfoWorld has adopted the former definition. Last April we boiled [...]
Hi,
I am working as Linux system administrator now I want to learn cloud computing too. I tried Googling but couldn't find appropriate information so thought to ask people here.
Can somebody suggest me correct path along with tutorials/PDF/HTMLs?
Really appreciate your help.
thx

Catalyst::Manual::Deployment - Deploying Catalyst
DEPLOYMENT OPTIONS
Catalyst applications are most often deployed as a FastCGI or mod_perl application (with FastCGI being the recommended option). However, as
Catalyst is based on the PSGI specification, any web handler implementing that specification can be used to run Catalyst applications.
This documentation most thoroughly covers the normal and traditional deployment options, but will mention alternate methods of deployment,
and we welcome additional documentation from people deploying Catalyst in non-standard environments.
Deployment in a shared hosting environment
Almost all shared hosting environments involve deploying Catalyst as a FastCGI application on Apache. You will usually want to have a set
of libraries specific to your application installed on your shared host.
Full details of deploying Catalyst in a shared hosting environment are at Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::SharedHosting.
FastCGI
FastCGI is the most common Catalyst deployment option. It is documented generally in Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::FastCGI, and there are
specific instructions for using FastCGI with common web servers below:
Apache
Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::Apache::FastCGI
nginx
Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI
lighttpd
Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::lighttpd::FastCGI
Microsoft IIS
Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::IIS::FastCGI
mod_perl
Traditionally a common deployment option for dedicated applications, mod_perl has some advantages and disadvantages over FastCGI. Use of
mod_perl is documented in Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::Apache::mod_perl.
Development Server
It is possible to deploy the Catalyst development server behind a reverse proxy. This may work well for small-scale applications which are
in an early development phase, but which you want to be able to show to people. See Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::DevelopmentServer.
PSGI
Catalyst can be deployed with any PSGI-compliant handler. See Catalyst::PSGI for more information; a list of possible deployment servers
are shown below:
Starman
Starman is a high-performance Perl server implementation, which is designed to be used directly (rather than behind a reverse proxy). It
includes HTTP/1.1 support, chunked requests and responses, keep-alive, and pipeline requests.
Starlet
Starlet is a standalone HTTP/1.0 server with keepaXXalive support which is suitable for running HTTP application servers behind a reverse
proxy.
Twiggy
Twiggy is a high-performance asynchronous web server. It can be used in conjunction with Catalyst, but there are a number of caveats which
mean that it is not suitable for most deployments.
Chef
<LChef|http://www.opscode.com/chef/> is an open-source systems integration framework built specifically for automating cloud computing
deployments. A Cookbooks demonstrating how to deploy a Catalyst application using Chef is available at
<http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/catalyst> and http://github.com/melezhik/cookbooks/wiki/Catalyst-cookbook-intro
