Please add a praise page to the book in future printings, containing this quote:

In today's climate of digital transformation and "software eating the world", many businesses and even more developers and IT professionals have already begun a journey to Cloud Native. Some have already arrived, and still more are toying with the idea, whether they realize it or not. Cloud Native in some ways is just a badge for a bunch of sensible best practices for distributed systems, but naming something can be useful: it can make it tangible and give us hooks, as practitioners, architects, developers or operators, on which to hang our discussions and analyses. In this book, Josh and Kenny have described in vivid detail a substantial overview of landscape of distributed systems technology, with abundant details where needed, in a style that will enlighten and amuse. The tools we use to deliver the Cloud Native vision might change over time, but the basic principles will change less, and the practical approach in this book will stay relevant, even if the tools change. The topics range widely, and it is especially interesting to see an emphasis on events and stream processing, which are only given relatively shallow treatment elsewhere, but are rapidly becoming part of the foundations of the modern distributed architecture. The book has a wealth of practical examples and source code, and although the technology stack used in the is quite specific (Java, and also mostly Spring and Cloud Foundry), I hope that this book will find readers outside the existing user base for those tools, because the lessons are deep, general, and grounded in real practice by the authors over the course of their careers. I predict that all who are on that Cloud Native journey, no matter if just starting or already nearing the destination, will benefit from understanding and applying the distilled insight and experience in Cloud Native Java.

—Dr. Dave Syer, Spring Framework contributor and Spring Boot and Spring Cloud co-founder

The phrase "an still larger application server" uses the wrong article for a/an. It should read, "a still larger application server"

In the paragraph on attribution, the example attribution should include the book's actual title rather than the placeholder, "Book Title." The other data in the example are real: copyright year, authors, ISBN.

It seems like the book consistently makes use of the serial comma. However, in the second-to-last sentence, the serial is omitted. There should probably be one before the final conjunction in the phrase, "solutions for infrastructure, testing, middleware, continuous integration and delivery, development frameworks and cloud platforms."

"Josh Long is a Spring developer advocate" should be "Josh Long is a Spring Developer Advocate" to be consistent with a section about Kenny Bastani and About the Authors page.

The white box on the upper-left corner, says 'Environment'.

But it should be 'Dev'. See Figure 1-2.

Stout is what I order at a bar - stdout is where I write my event streams. text reads: write logs as an ordered event stream to stout.

"a SQL database" should be "an SQL database"
See, for example, ISO/IEC FDIS 9075-1 Information technology - Database languages - SQL - Part 1: Framework (SQL/Framework).

Section i. Basics
Chapter 2 Twelve Factor Applications Style
Subsection The Spring Cloud Config Server

Edition Kindle Edition (probably in every Edition)

Cite:
Example 3-9. The configuration server’s configuration, src/ main/ resources/ application.yml

Mistake
This is not a YAML file but a .properties file
(see also https://github.com/cloud-native-java/configuration/blob/master/configuration-service/src/main/resources/application.properties)

"annotatedparameters" should be "annotated parameters"

The .json file live in a directory structure in src/main/resources ...
This should be src/test/resources as displayed in Example 4-7

The Message needs to implement java.io.Serializable

should be

The MessageService needs to implement java.io.Serializable

Section IV. Production
Chapter 14 Service Brokers

Edition: Kindle Edition/Safari Online Edition

The description of the statements following to Example 14-8 is not correct. The text states that the method is "GetLastServiceOperationRequest", but the method name is "GetLastOperation"

Callbale<T> should be Callable<T>

Duplicative word used in the 2nd to last sentence of the paragraph.

"One option is to keep a dynamic white list on the edge service, filtering clients against those registered registered in the registry."

Note the mistake: "registered registered".

centerpeice -> centerpiece

Missing word in the sentence, "Technologies like the Spring Cloud Authorization Server play an important in an architecture."

Note the mistake: "play an important <likely missing noun> in an architecture".

Callbale<T> instead of Callable<T>

"a thishipment" should be "a shipment"

memorize is type memoize ('z' character is missing)

"generated" is in the wrong tense. "generate" is correct.

Consider placing an article after the verb, "send", so that it reads, "send a Reset Password email"

The below phrase uses the wrong verb at the end of the parenthetical statement. We readers are indeed reading this book, but our purpose is not to read web applications. Rather, most of us will build/design/create/... web applications.

"a web application (which we suspect will be the kind of application most readers of this book will read)"
