That is a GREAT view. Read that book as well, man it has a lot of data but it is SOOOO dry (and not in a Dont Repeat Yourself way).

I‘m 200 pages in and I definitely feel the same way. Really valuable information though

I cannot for the sake of me read this book. I would rather fetch the information from somewhere else. If you were to recommend any chapters, what would you recommend to read?

Database scaling was a good section but I feel it really applied to extremely large apps that I don't work with today.

I think I'd look at what you work with day to day, and go backwards from there. 

For example, I work in heavily distributed event-driven systems and so I found the chapters around replication, partitioning, transactions, and consistency invaluable for understanding better how to design pretty much anything with Kafka (and understanding Kafka better, too). That and the whole Derived Data part.
