What is store.carlesmateo.com?

It is the Library (Digital Book Store) from Carles Mateo. Carles is a Cloud Architect (Higher Diploma in Science in Cloud Computing with First Class Honours by MTU, in Ireland), Software Engineer, Operations Engineer, SRE and AI specialist.

Carles developed most of his career working in Ireland, US, Scotland and Barcelona.

Here you can find books written by Carles, DRM-Free. You can buy a book and download it in PDF and/or EPUB without any DRM. That means that you'll be able to copy and to read it on your tablets, phones or computers.

What is DRM-Free?

To protect the copyright many companies create the EPUB with DRM technologies. That means that you cannot copy and see your books between your devices. Many times DRM Software is intrusive and invasive, so Carles publishes only DRM-Free books. The books you can buy here have no DRM. So you can copy the PDF and EPUB books to your devices, and make private backups.

What kind of books are sold?

Mainly technical books, hands on, and some novels.

What languages are the books written in?

The books are written in English, Catalan and/or Spanish.

Does not the absence of DRM help piracy to your books?

Yes, indeed. Carles saw the decline in sales first hand, after his books were published in pirate sites.

The book sales helped Carles when he was studying at the university, so the decline of sales due to piracy discouraged him to publish for a while.

How it works?

You add the book you want to the basket, register as user, and then pay in Stripe secure website.

Afterward you see the book listed in "My Books" and you are able to download them, and the attachments from the book (like source code), and you'll get any new update that is made to the book.

Some books come with additional material that you can download after you buy the book. This is indicated in the card of the book. After you purchase a book you'll be able to rate it and to make a review, if you want.
