Why You Should Read This Book
If you are a Java developer who wants to learn more about continuous delivery, or are currently struggling with embracing this way of delivering software, then this is the book for you. We have provided not only the “how” and “what” of implementing the various practices and tools associated with continuous delivery, but also the “why.” We believe this is important, because if you understand the motivations, you will be well placed to adapt particular practices that don’t quite work for you as described. Understanding the reasoning behind an approach also helps build strong foundations, and helps you share and teach these ideas to others. As the Japanese poet Matsuo Bashō said, “Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise; seek what they sought.”
We have also written this book as a call to action to you, as a Java developer, to get outside your comfort zone and learn more about architecture, automation, and operations.
In the current software development career space, we see increasingly fewer opportunities for pure Java programming roles, with many new roles expecting knowledge of continuous delivery, platforms, and operational tooling. By investing in yourself and increasing your software development knowledge and skills, you will not only be open to more opportunities, but also become a better programmer.
As we wrote this book, we had no single idea of a prototypical reader of this book, other than you being a Java developer, but one of the following target personas may resonate with you:
– Traditional enterprise Java developer
– Java developer looking to embrace DevOps
– Recently graduated college, or university student
