Call me old fashioned, but even on this era of blogs, social media, info
scattered through the net, it's always amazing to see a book covering
our technology. Just feels like it's more real when you can actually
physically pick something up.
And, once again I may be the only one thinking this, but I see it as a
great milestone in a project's lifecycle; it's not a pet project anymore
- it's the real deal.
And a latest addition that is particularly close for obvious reasons:
Miguel Gaspar, one of our consultants, went ahead and
published a book covering Pentaho Ctools
Amazing
stuff Miguel. Thanks for doing this, I would never be able to write a
book (hum... well, technically I actually wrote one but.... meh, ignore)
Other Pentaho literature
We've been lucky enough to have already a couple of books covering several aspects of pentaho - The
platform, a
couple
covering PDI, and... well, more than I can link. And I see this as a
huge advantage. I'm sure any prospect / customer will feel much more
confident by seeing this huge amount of resources available.
Just take a look at this screenshot with the search results from
https://www.packtpub.com/all/?search=pentaho.
Mind blowing, and from one editor alone (there's more on Wiley and
others). It's just what you get when you can work with a great community :)
Cheers!
