Review of advance copy received from Publisher
March 11, 2026
Read the book in early access via O’Reilly Learning. Just a great next step after the first edition. Not much has changed, but I really loved the new book’s structure and a refresh about some topics, e.g., cloud databases. I still consider this book to be the most important book in software engineering, and the second edition is a meticulously polished version of the book that’s still relevant these days - after 10 years.
