Not so long since the previous book bundle and now we have a “Cloud Infrastructure & Operations” bundle by O’Reilly.

This bundle contains books on Kubernetes, distributed apps, tracing, database reliability in the cloud and so on. One of the book in this bundle is the one, I’m reading at the moment actually - “Implementing Service Level Objectives” 😄 It’s an Ok book. Definitely not a mustread, but good to check if you’re working on SLOs at the moment.

#books

A new OPS-ish books collection from Humble Bundle - Linux and Sysadmin Tools.

As usual, you can pay a little bit more than €17 to unlock the whole bundle of 15 books.

Speaking of the books I can see there, I’ve heard that “Linux Pocket Guide” by Daniel J. Barrett is a good entry level book. Also, I’ve heard that “Linux System Programming” by Robert Live is good, although a little bit too specific. I’m personally interested in the AWK book the most. I use it in my day-to-day work quite frequently and I feel like I still too far away from its true potential.

Personally, I prefer Go over Python. Yet, I know that Python is very popular inside the platform engineering community (for some reasons unknown to me).

Therefore, I want to share with a Python book bundle by “No Starch Press”.

As usual, you can pay different amount of money to unlock different number of books. The whole bundle costs about €33.

Although, some of those books are oriented towards full-time developers, other books are focused on the automation tasks. Thus, I believe this bundle would be interesting to you.

I personally don’t know this publisher. Yet, the titles of some books look interesting. For example, there is a book about FinOps as well as “Kubernetes for Jobseekers” (lol).

This is a Cloud OPS and Development bundle by BPB.

If you know this publisher or have any feedback on these books, feel free to share your impressions in our chat (chat is in Ukrainian).

As usual, you can pay different amount to unlock different number of books. This bundle is active for 20 more days.

As usual, you can pay starting from ~€23 to unlock the whole bundle. And is has some good books like “Implementing SLOs” and “Database Reliability Engineering”.

Just a small announcement: there won’t be many posts this week because I’m traveling.

You may also have noticed that there was no Sunday email last week. Well, I didn’t forget, but since this week is basically out, I’ll send out the newsletter this Sunday instead.

However, I’d like to share with you this book bundle about maths for programmers.

BTW, one of the books in this bundle is written by an Ukrainian (an article is in Ukrainian).

I know that many of you, folks, do not like Azure or Microsoft in general. Yet, this is one of the major cloud providers.

So, today I want to share with you a bundle of the materials to help you to get ready for Azure exams.

Ace your Microsoft certification exams bundle on Humble Bundle.

#books

This book bundle by O’Reilly mostly contains books on the software architecture, but you may find some microservice-related books there that may be of your interest.

#books

O’Reilly is being on a streak now!

Right after the Software Architecture book bundle, we’ve got the Cybersecurity Month bundle!

As usual, you can pay different amount of money to unlock different number of books. But still, the whole amount is probably less than the individual price for some of the titles.

For a bit longer than a week you can buy the Python Crash Course book from Humble Bundle with 45% discount.

I personally don’t use Python, but I know that it’s pretty popular in platform engineering. So, this offer may be interesting to you.
