Its an eBook, not a book.

Even though I work in tech, I was excited that they were giving a way a print copy I could flick though easily, and bookmark, annotate or share.

EBooks have some advantages, but I still prefer print.

Needs a form fill with a valid email, but it really is the full just-released 300+ page book.

...and name, work, phone number, and requires consent to receive emails from nginx...

...easiest free content of my life...

Step 1: implement Kubernetes

Step 2: completely transform your existing organization to be a matrix of agile teams with chargeback budgets aligned to resource use of shared services and collaborating on product lifecycles in scrum and kanban using full test coverage on both legacy and modern apps stored in asset-managed Docker containers in ci/cd pipelines triggered by Jira tickets deploying declarative immutable infrastructure and integrating an array of site reliability services that don't ship with k8s while adding policy and compliance enforcement with secret management and process auditing including in-line content filters using redundant services in multiple data centers without wasting resources or money

Step 3: document it

(I haven't read the book yet, so ymmv)

Business email, company, job title — what if someone doesn't have one or more of these? I know one can give fake information, but why are all the fields on the form marked with an asterisk indicating that they're mandatory? It's asking for phone number too?! Thanks, but no thanks. This is not for me.
