I’ve written dozens of forewords and prefaces over the years, but this might be the first time I’ve been annoyed having to write one. Why? I’m a sore loser! I am sore that I didn’t write this book. I am sore because I wonder if I even could write it.
This book is fantastic. Its pages are brimming with valuable ideas couched in evident, profound experience. I have always wanted to see all these concepts put in one place, and I will be pointing people to this book for the foreseeable future.
Building production-worthy applications, where production is mostly Kubernetes these days, and building out production itself? That’s a hefty lift, just like this book, which clocks in at more than 600 pages! But don’t let my prattling about size dissuade you from buying this book. It’s a big book for an even bigger topic.
