This book provides an amazing trove of practical tricks, tips and techniques in a fashion of progressive discovery - that developers need to push their apps on Cloud Foundry.It is clear that the authors are experienced and have developed apps and services on PCF with insight into how the platform itself operates. If you want to do any development on Cloud Foundry and Pivotal Cloud Foundry this book distills the best practices developing apps.

The kindle version needs some serious work. The paragraphs run on and the graphics dont show up. There seems to be lots of spacing issues making some of the content hard to read. This should not have been released in this state.

Great book with solid technical information. The first few chapters get you oriented with Cloud Foundry before diving into application specific work. Later chapters get into more advanced topics such as custom buildpacks and service brokers, troubleshooting and CI/CD. If you don't have access to a Cloud Foundry environment, no sweat as chapter 3 will have you up and running locally with a lighter weight development version called PCF Dev.

Das Buch ist für Einsteiger in CF geeignet. Inhaltlich geht es jedoch wenig darüber hinaus. Packt-Bücher leiden (wohl alle) an schlecht lesbarem Layout mit großen Überschriften, breitem Schrift-Font und S/W-Abbildungen mit wenig Kontrast. Das können Verlage wie Manning, O'Reilly oder Pearson deutlich besser.Auf die Ausführungen zu 12-Factor-Apps (hier sogar 16 Factors) und CI/CD hätte man, aus meiner Sicht, zugunsten von mehr CF-Inhalten und -tiefe verzichten können.
