Omstreeks de tijd dat de nieuwe Motoren & Toerisme je brievenbus inglijdt zijn (nagenoeg) alle nieuwigheden voor 2024 gekend en dus kunnen we daar in dit nummer niet omheen. De hoofdrol wordt echter opgeëist door de nieuwe R 1300 GS, geen wonder want BMW’s Boxer-allroad voert al jaren quasi onafgebroken de hitlijst der inschrijvingen aan en dat in quasi heel Europa. En dus serveren we onze lezers een heus dossier rond de R 1300 GS. Daarin lees je een heel uitgebreide test van hoofdredacteur Tom Vander Sande, en omdat de GS zo’n belangrijk model is peilden we ook  naar Alan Cathcarts mening. Benieuwd wat de doyen van de Britse, en bij uitbreiding mondiale motorpers van BMW’s nieuwste paradepaardje denkt. Verder gaan we in op de evolutie van de GS ten opzichte van z’n voorganger, en vertelt Peter Aansorgh je wat nu precies het verschil tussen ESA en DSA is.

 Ook een revolutie, maar dan een stille is de Ninja 7 Hybrid, de eerste productie-motorfiets ooit die zowel op benzine als op elektriciteit rijdt.  Redacteur Charly de Kinderen maakt kennis met deze nieuwe technologie. Met onze rij-indruk van de Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour voelen we Ducati’s toerwapen bij uitstek aan de tand.  Verder vergelijken we ook een oude en een nieuwe sporttoermachine van KTM, of beter gezegd de 990 SMT en de 890 SMT. Ook de liefhebbers van hoogtoerige viercilinders komen aan hun trekken en wel met onze test van de Kawasaki ZX-4RR, een heuse pocket supersport. Tot slot nemen we met een lange allroadrit door de Kempen afscheid van de Moto Morini XCape, de motorfiets de een seizoen lang de reisgezel van de redactie was.

 Pieter Pacques verkent  de Penines, het (laag)gebergte dat de waterscheiding vormt tussen de Oost- en Westkust van Noord-Engeland. En omdat de befaamde Yorkshire Dales dan toch om de hoek lagen, maakt Pieter ook nog een ommetje door het landschap dat het decor was voor de TV-reeks ‘All Creatures Great and Small’ daar. Patrick De Smet gaat het toerplezier dan weer in het noordoosten van Frankrijk zoeken, waar hij ingekneld tussen Lorraine, Franche-Comté en Bourgogne de streek van de Haute-Marne vindt. Tom en Caroline zetten hun tocht door Australië verder en trekken westwaarts, het barre en lege landschap van Western Australia in. Omdat het ook niet altijd té ver moet zijn, probeert Pieter samen met dochter Meen, Nederland te verkennen via de befaamde dijkwegen.

have some good contents but too general
Format: Paperback
The book covers some good points, but overall, it's too general.

Why Politics in a Tech Book????
Format: Kindle
Well... I'm surprised to see the book blatently calls out its dedication to Black Lives Matter, which is in all caps so I assume it's referring to the political organization. It goes on to speak of 2020 being the year of an "awakening of injustices of systematic racism"... I thought I was buying a technical book??? Had I known this political bs was included I wouldn't have purchased it! However, I bought and I'm still reading it. If the politics goes away and the TECHNICAL content is good I'll update my review.

Not good use of time
Format: Paperback
It’s not clear who this book targets - neither experts nor novice will benefit. There are expert perspectives, only few of these are helpful, rest are too generic to be of any use. For instance the last entry is one an engineer who shares how she went from zero to expert in cloud engineering in six months but fails to mention a single resource or pathway for others to follow.

Uneven compendium of tips and insights, but still very useful
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
“In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not" is why such bottom-up insights and lessons from the field are the fastest way to learn real life stuff. This series had a GREAT start with "Engineering Management" - I guess because it is way more subjective than Cloud Engineering and offered a variety of non-overlapping POVs. This one is a mixed bag, perhaps because "Cloud Engineering" was perceived amorphously by the authors. The scope was broad - from cloud-native (architecture), to cloud-ready (topology), to cloud-operations, to choosing tech (e.g., Lambda/serverless), to -ilities and economics -- it is like celebrating Halloween, Christmas and Labor Day together in a single long weekend. I would give it 4/+ stars if at least 25% of such a book was "superb", giving 3 because about 10% of the book is. That still leaves 10 solid insights or learning that would otherwise take many failures to learn. And failures, especially in this emerging domain of complexity, is VERY expensive. Would love to see more books like this. Let's summarize some key insights - -- Real-time visibility across the entire DevOps lifecycle is key to winning in cloud. -- Operations, especially operations at scale, is extremely hard. So, wherever possible, use Managed Services. -- Distinguish between "availability" and "uptime" and measure each separately, and concretely. -- In FaaS/Serverless, calling a function synchronously increases debugging complexity. -- Good code is like good joke - it needs no explanation. -- "Building your app or platform on top of the abstractions that a cloud provider gives you does not make the underlying layers stop existing. In many cases, it makes them even more important." That makes the failure modes LESS obvious than we were used to. Therefore having "extreme visibility" into your systems will help "separate the issues at the layer you're focused on from the fundamental system issues". i.e., just because what was under the hood is now even less visible, don't forget them. Many recent "cloud failures" have been in networking fault domains. -- Cloud is not optimized for replacing static infrastructures. -- Containers, service meshes and serverless jumpstart dev productivity but they also change the attack surface of apps and infra. -- "Number of containers that are alive for 10 sec or less has doubled to 22%". 73% of all containers live for 30 minutes or less. -- Adopt an "assume breach" stance for everything. Have a break-glass account. -- Ensure you have a thorough understanding of where and how secrets are secured. -- Grey failures (transient degradation of services) are often worse than complete crashes, since the latter have a short feedback loop. -- Resilience engineering has existed as a sub-discipline within safety sciences. We just recently started applying its concepts in technology. Resilience can be thought of as a "socio-technical system" with Robustness ("system X has property Y that is robust in sense Z to perturbation W"); Reliability (consistent operations or service levels); Rebound (ability to deal with a chaotic situation using structures developed AND deployed BEFORE the chaos). In other words, robustness protects systems against a SPECIFIC type of failure mode. When a system is robust in many dimensions, it approaches good resilience to failure. -- Resilience is something you "do", not something you "have". Resilience is a verb. -- Moving from one class of nines to the next is 10 times more expensive. -- Production System really means "system that someone else, anyone else, can hold you accountable for". -- Most common theme across incidents is that something, somewhere was surprising. -- Incidents are unplanned investments...your challenge is to maximize ROI. -- We used to think of scale in two dimensions - horizontal (more) and vertical (bigger). In cloud, think of "scale out" (when demands increase) and "scale in" (when demand decreases). -- Architecture diagram is also a map of failure modes. -- Async communication is a friend of Cloud Reliability. -- Test in production is a competitive advantage. The complexity of traffic patterns going through high-scale production systems is increasingly harder to reproduce in a controlled env. -- Hundreds of open issues is fine, but if the repo has gone months (or, years!) without a release, THAT is a warning sign. -- It is hard to write good tests for bad code. -- Platforms come and go. But first principles and patterns will always exist, because they are the ones and zeros.

Shallow, biased and significantly overpriced
Format: Paperback
Well, this purchase was a disappointment. 20% of the pages are dedicated to just highlighting the bios and backgrounds of the many different authors that contributed this great wisdom. And let me be clear, the authors are solid. They are professionals with credible backgrounds and experience. But it's the format and constraints of this book that makes it virtually impossible for that to shine through. Because the rest of the book (80%) is dedicated to the so called "97 things every cloud engineer should know". And unfortunately the average length of one of these "things" is about 1.5 pages long, and as such extremely shallow and in about 30% of the cases straight up promotions for specific company services. You will find Google cloud advocates telling you to use managed services, of Google of course. AWS engineers telling you to avoid them and use IaaS. LaunchDarkly employees telling you to use feature flags. The list goes on. The TL;DR: here is that if you have built anything on the cloud in the last 2 years, this book is going to be a waste of your time and money. You are better of googling: "cloud best practices" and dedicating 2h to reading the first 10 non-ad related search results.
