This book covered data intensive systems very well with lots of great explanations of different approaches and guidance of when to use different otions. It delved to a very low level of detail in many areas. It is not an easy read and I would treat it more as a reference book to come back to when there is a problem I am trying to address.

It's a pretty big book - around 600 pages, but each chapter kept providing more and more information about what options to go about while architecting a solution.
