Acknowledgments
We would like to thank the O’Reilly team—including Acquisition Editor Courtney Allen, Developmental Editor Virginia Wilson, Production Editor Nick Adams, and the many others working behind the scenes—for giving us the opportunity to write this book and for the help provided along the way.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation for our technical reviewers Nick Payton, J. R. Mayberry, and Allan Liska for providing valuable feedback during the writing process. The book would not be the same without their input.
Finally, we would like to say a special thank you to Lee Chen, CEO of A10 Networks, for his confidence and support of this project.

I’d like to thank my wife, Laura, and my daughters, Morgan and Raewyn, for their patience and love during the writing of this book. Thanks also go to my employer, A10 Networks, and my boss, Raj, for being supportive and giving me the guidance to help me improve, and the room to do so.
