Errata

"sometimes referred to ass DevOps", I believe it was meant to be, "sometimes referred to as DevOps".

"Kubernates" misspelled. Project is Kubernetes.

applcition

"No longer is the Linux system administrator an island until himself (or herself)! ". It shouldn't be "until" but "unto".

At "Site reliability engineers (SREs), backend engineers and distributed applcition developers...": "applcition" should be "application"

Also, at the end of paragraph 3, "My goal is to show you want you need to know...": "want" should be "what"

Title displays in Kindle as "atlas ebook skeleton"

xiv, first paragraph. Sentence beginning 'My goal is to show you want you...' "Want" should be 'what'.

First sentence: "referred to ass DevOps" should be 'as'.

First sentence: "In order to be able to write a book such as this, with its wide-ranged and ambitious scope". I cannot make up my mind but it seems either wide-range or wide-ranging should be used instead. Either sounds better.

"quick and through" -- you mean 'thorough'

First sentence: "provide you a through introduction...". Should be 'thorough'

The first sentence: "PROD: Please reach out to author to find" should be something like 'reach out to the authors to find...'

"Sysadmins have always worked with devops, through legend has it that the relationship was somewhat acrimonious," should be "though" not "through".

There doesn't appear to be an earlier mention of Google developing CGroups.

Possibly related: the previous paragraph mentions LXC and CGroups without first introducing the concepts. Note also: "cgroups" (uncapitalised) there, versus "CGroups" below..

Docker misspelt ("Docket").

"Apache Mesos" (p36) and "Swarm" (p37) headings match the capitalisation used in the paragraphs.

Perhaps "along" should be "alongside"?

Wording of second sentence is poor. Perhaps ", four course, use tools" should be replaced with a descriptive term for the tools used to monitor systems, complementing "configuration tools" later in the sentence.

Capitalisation of "Mcollective" in bullet point is inconsistent with the paragraph below.
The preferred captialisation seems to be "MCollective" (https://docs.puppet.com/mcollective/).
