Great practical advise
Rated out of 5 stars, March 12th, 2009
I couldn't put this book down, I'm not one for dry technical authorship, but this book kept an interesting pace with stories and advice. A good read for anyone dealing with building any application that'll need more than one server. -
Sensible level, well presented, well written, practical...

As a software developer, one of my primary concerns is scalability of my applications. This book is perfect for an intermediate to experienced developer seeking a greater awareness and understanding of both the thought and tools to be cognizant of when building applications for the web which need to scale. The author goes on to give sensible, practical examples of software and hardware based approaches to scaling applications, making some important conceptual distinctions along the way.
I found this book an excellent technical read; delivered well considering the potential for ad nauseum of its subject matter.
Highly recommended for the competent web developer and those seeking to improve their awareness of scaling web technologies.
