About this listen

Cloud Native Patterns is your guide to developing strong applications that thrive in the dynamic, distributed, virtual world of the cloud. This audiobook presents a mental model for cloud-native applications, along with the patterns, practices, and tooling that set them apart.

About the technology

Cloud platforms promise the holy grail: Near-zero downtime, infinite scalability, short feedback cycles, fault-tolerance, and cost control. But how do you get there? By applying cloud native designs, developers can build resilient, easily adaptable, web-scale distributed applications that handle massive user traffic and data loads. Learn these fundamental patterns and practices, and you’ll be ready to thrive in the dynamic, distributed, virtual world of the cloud.

About the audiobook

With 25 years of experience under her belt, Cornelia Davis teaches you the practices and patterns that set cloud-native applications apart. With realistic examples and expert advice for working with apps, data, services, routing, and more, she shows you how to design and build software that functions beautifully on modern cloud platforms. As you listen, you will start to appreciate that cloud-native computing is more about the how and why rather than the where.

Narrated by a Computer Generated Vocie

This book is narrated by a computer generated female voice, and *not* by the advertised 'Mark Thomas'.
It is disturbingly robot like to listen to, with weird pauses mid sentence (not an issue of lag, I downloaded it to my device).
The author is brilliant - I herd her on a podcast and so bought this book.
Despite my intense interest in the subject, it was impossible to listen to this title's awful text-to-speech.
Very disappointing.

Couldn't listen for even 15 minutes.

After deciding I would return this very quickly, I did skip ahead to listen to various snippets. My quick impression is this, I think the content may deserve a purchase but the narration (as mentioned by another review) was unbearable. I don't know that it's computer-generated audio as assumed by the other reviewer as the inflections sounded authentic but regardless, their comment on the pauses was spot on. I counted as many as 5 unnecessary pauses in one sentence. It's not just the odd pause here and there, it's every single sentence multiple times.

Like, if I wanted, to punctuate, a word or two, I would add, a bunch of comma's, to emphasize, those select words, or phrases. But as you can see, from this example, having too many comma's, is verry jarring, and hard, to listen to.

I am really sorry to the author who has obviously put a lot of time into the content, but the recording really needs to be redone or just stick to text copies. I did read the other review prior to buying, but listening to the sample I thought it was fine and maybe the review was exaggerated. Alas I had the same experience and couldn't listen effectively so gave up and returned the book shortly after starting it.
