THE COMMANDANT'S PROFESSIONAL READING LIST

This is my recommended reading list. My recommendations are just that, I am not a commandant. It is only based on books I have read, so obviously biased and quite limited. I have named it based on one of the books in my reading list. Parts are .NET centered because that is mostly what I know. A lot is focused on the web. This is not a generic reading list for any software developer, I am mostly focused on web and API focused work stuff in .NET and so is this list. It leans towards the software developer wanting to be a tech-lead, architect or CTO.

A lot of links goes to Amazon, because I have those books in kindle for the most part and it is easy for me, but get them from anywhere.

THE COMMANDANT'S PROFESSIONAL READING LIST

If USMC Grunts can read five books a year, then so can software developers. https://www.marines.mil/News/Marines-TV/videoid/747008/

Modified version of the bundled Windows Azure deployment process used by Octopus 2.0. This version will do a deploy to Staging, VIP swap to Production and then delete the Staging slot
## --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
##
## This script is used to control how we deploy packages to Windows Azure.
## Orignial script (https://gist.github.com/PaulStovell/5234255) customized for
## Staging-To-Production with VIP swap deployment.
##
## NOTE: the script will only do Staging+VIP swap if $OctopusAzureSlot == "Staging".
## If $OctopusAzureSlot == anything else, the script will deploy directly to that slot
## without any further swapping.
