The book in my list that I was interested in reviewing was this one, which I thought might have some useful tips for my work.
This book, “Distributed Systems with Node.js” by Thomas Hunter, focuses on teaching readers how to use Node.js for building backend services for distributed systems, rather than frontend web development. The book covers topics such as deploying and scaling Node.js applications, making them redundant and resilient to failure, and observing the health of the application. By the end of the book, readers will have a solid understanding of the technologies needed to run Node.js services in a production environment. However, it’s important to note that the book is not intended to make readers experts on these systems and it doesn’t cover all the technology used in different employer’s solutions. But it will help readers to understand how to run a local instances.
Chapters one and two were interesting to me since they referred to some of my old knowledge. I can recommand this book to developers that might not have enough skills in distributed systems deployment and DevOps areas.
