In response to this thread, let's start a S.A. IT book club! Some suggestions from that thread: The original suggestions:  Information Storage and Management: Storing, Managing, and Protecting Digital Information in Classic, Virtualized, and Cloud Environments by EMC Education Services Link: http://amzn.com/1118094832 I've heard this described as "The Bible of Enterprise Storage." 15 chapters, 400 pages. Difficulty: Looks like a good introduction to storage. the first chapter can be previewed on Amazon. I don't think you need much outside knowledge to keep up.  Learn Windows PowerShell 3 in a Month of Lunches by Don Jones et al. Link: http://amzn.com/1617291080 A great introduction to an important tool in Windows Administration. I never bothered to finish but the first half was great. 28 chapters, about 300 pages. Difficulty: You probably want to be familiar with windows and for some of the exercises you'll need to be able to remotely manage other computers.  Time Management for System Administrators by Thomas A. Limoncelli Link: http://amzn.com/0596007833 13 chapters, 220 pages Difficulty: It's not a technical book, I haven't even cracked open my copy. I just haven't been able to find the time. And a few more: It seems like there was a lot of support for http://itrevolution.com/the-phoenix-project-excerpt/ Maybe we should start with that? The Linux programming interface Applied Cryptogrophy Field Guide to Understanding Human Error. Not strictly a tech book but very relevant to reliably operating large systems. Debug It! Antifragile: Things That Gain From Disorder Someone in the LinkedIn group suggested Systems Performance. There were a bunch more suggestions, these were just the few I grabbed. If there's interest, I'll create a poll and a google group, and we can really get this going!
