** spoiler alert ** While the book started really strong and interesting explaining historical modelling , around the 30% mark it gets nasty , confusing and you don't really understand how the pieces fit together.

The author while most certainly knows alot of &$it about distributed systems and immutable architecture , he certainly didn't give much thought on how to put it all together and create some damn coherence for the reader.

Ex: we are discussing historical modelling on the first 5 chapters , then out of friggin nowhere i'm cramped in a chapter about security - assymetric keys/hashes.
Down the road another chapter is.about sql databases.
The chapters are tackled somehow relating to immutable architecture but there is no damn structure , no order and definetly no logic as to why they were pushed there and in that order , its more like reading a memo.


Really really dissapointed !
