Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I have never before seen so many typos in a book. These aren’t just simple misspellings, but also incorrect word use that leave you wondering about a sentence’s intent – a real problem when you’re trying to understand a new concept. There are enough typos to be an annoyance, and I’ve completed just 15% of the book.

⭐I tried to read this book, but gave up. It was mistitled – it appears to really be targeting a highly qualified IT audience. I am a Mac user but couldn’t find ANY references to iCloud or related uses. Definitely not for DUMMIES! All I want is help backing up files somewhere other than on a hard drive or on my computer.1 star is generous but that is as low I can select.

⭐Example: What is the difference between three 9’s and four 9’s? Apparently you get less uptime (significantly) with 4…Given this is a revision of the first book, I would think things like this would be fixed. But I guess not…

⭐Bought this book as a gift. From what I have heard they really enjoy it, great quality.

⭐Comprehensive book with overview. Not for dummies.

⭐The book is deliberately written so that it can be read as self contained topics rather than sequentially. While this might be time saving for some, it means that each chapter repeats basic information rather than there being any sense of progressive build up of knowledge. The level is more geared to a business reader trying to get an overview than to someone with pre-cloud IT knowledge aiming to get up to date. Some concepts are sketchily covered – for example containerisation is glossed in terms of what it achieves but not how it achieves it, or at what level it applies. Other terms, for example block storage, are used with no explanation at all. There are very, very few diagrams to explain concepts; I suspect with a few choice diagrams they could have saved about 80 pages of waffle. The editing is extremely poor – it clearly has never been proof read as there are many mistakes in the text. Not up to the standard of some other technology Dummies books.

⭐Very poorly written. Lots of errors throughout the book. Consultant speak and completely useless in real world application.

⭐Half of the book not printed properly. It is difficult to read the book. Please let me know where to return the book in Tokyo
