of date -- ten years is a geologically long at technology's pace! For example, the development environment chapter describes how to use CVS and RCS. These were excellent tools for their time, but today there are new alternatives with substantially more power and flexibility. It's also not going to have anything to say about Cloud Foundry -- the book is ten years old (2006) and CF was released five years ago (2011). The book is more like a list of things you should consider when building websites, and less about the specific tools to use when building them. When read in this way, it has definitely stood the test of time. As for other books I'm afraid I don't have any specific recommendations - it depends a lot on what, specifically, you're interested in. If you want to learn about deploying on CF, I think the documentation is a great place to start: https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/index.html ~ jf -- John Feminella Advisory Platform Architect ✉ · jxf(a)pivotal.io t · @jxxf
