I would like to ask for an example of application for which this book would be useful.
The book is based on a typical banking application example, something we believe is easy to follow so that the concepts relate to lots of other generic business applications.
It is applicable to any scalable transaction-oriented business application, so high-volume eCommerce, order management systems, or applications that require intensive processing for multiple users (one example we looked at was a sophisticated documentation processing system, where lots of documents had to be generated "on the fly" for users from base content).
Is there just theory & concepts or some use case is explained along with the tools and configuration?
The theory is well covered, but the intent of the book is to make Software Pipelines practical for use. So there are lots of examples, including a reference framework and code that you can take advantage of.
