There is a lot of challenging material in this book but I am hoping to save my readers some setup effort because they can use a pre-configured Amazon machine image (AMI) that I created with the book examples and required infrastructure software. Of course, you can also build the examples on your laptop or servers.
I am setting up a book support web page with errata information. I plan on making entries for most questions from my readers that I answer via email.

I am trying the download myself right now. The download is 28 megabytes, so using a download manager that can be restarted might be a good idea. Also, check out Appendix A: directions for using the pre-configured AMI.
BTW, I have a slow internet connection (broadband up in the mountains where I live is slow) and I still just downloaded the ZIP file in a couple of minutes.
Please try the download again.
