I’ve been fortunate enough to appear on a podcast with the excellent Coding Over Cocktails team from Toro Cloud. we got to talk about some of the ideas discussed in my Logging In Action book. You can check the podcast out via their website which includes all the episode details and links to all the platforms that host the podcast. There have been some great previous guests such as Luis Weir (my old boss), Chris Richardson of Microservices.io, Matthew Reinbold from Postman, Sam Newman to name just a few.

The final leg of getting the book published has taken a lot longer than had been expected. But we’ve just been told that the book has been sent to the printers. This means:

  • final eBook will be available from Manning in about 1 week
  • Preordered print copies of the book will be dispatched in about 2 weeks
  • The alternative ebook formats for mobile readers e.g. kindle etc available in about 3 weeks
  • The book will become available to purchase from other book stores such as
    Amazon in 3-4 weeks
  • Safari Books Online and Apple stores will have the ebook in 4-5 weeks

Here are some links for buying the book …

It also means the project from a writing perspective is complete. But we’re starting to look at the additional examples we’ll add to the GitHub repo. These will be dependent upon the book.

We’ve got print books now …

Last night saw the final chapter of Logging in Action with Fluentd go back to my editor. The next step is that Chapter (and others I hope) will go to MEAP, so early readers not only get the final chapter, but also the raft of improvements we’ve made. Along with that, the manuscript goes for a full peers review. Once that’s back, its time for a round of edits as I address the feedback then into copy editing and Manning sign off review.

As you might have guessed, we’ve kept busy with an article in the 25th edition of OraWorld. This follows Part 1 talking about GraphQL with a look at considerations for API Security.

In addition to that we’re working on a piece around automation of OCI management activities such as setting up developers, allowing them a level of freedom to experiment without accidentally burning through all your credits by spinning up Exadata servers or 500 node Kubernetes clusters.

We might even have some time to write more about APIs and integration.
