Cloud-Native Applications in Java

There seems to be a trend in some technical books to just publish a series of screenshots, and for a while I thought I had bought another example, but after the first chapters this rapidly develops into a useful practical guide that shows problems encountered and how they can be overcome. It also doubles as a practical educational course in a particular set of tools you might be using, but for me this was the weakest part. If you really are learning from scratch this is great, but if you are already a practitioner then you already have your tools and these probably won't perfectly match the ones used. There is also a danger that advice such as "to check the product service registered, refresh the Eureka server page" will rapidly date, as will the screenshot related guides for AWS & Azure deployments, but guidance is usually given in both a generic and a specific way and the versions of all tools used are listed. I think this book deserves its place on my bookshelf and it will migrate to my desk on a regular basis. Recommended.
