I had this same question about a year ago (I have been coding asp.net since 2003) and have read various books and video courses. I feel that learning architecture is not the same as learning to code. Converting a string to an int there is a few ways to do it but essentially there is a right way to do it. Software design and Architecture is more of an art form taking into account many factors and so to learning it is somewhat of a journey, combining new narrative to your conscious reality.
For me video does not lend itself well to this sort of learning process. Reading the way you do when studying philosophy works much better. So the process of reading a chapter of a book, taking the time to think about it, hypothesizing how you would incorporate the architecture into your current project and questioning if you really need it before proceeding to the next chapter works really well.
Architetecting Applications for the Enterprice is great, they thoroughly go through the thought process involved in choosing an architecture, be it CQRS, DDD, Event Sourcing or Transaction script. It does feel a little dated and I would like to see a 3rd edition but still very good basis.
There is some good books at .NET Application Architecture page. The Microservices & Docker one is good, specifically the chapter on Tackling Business Complexity in a Microservice with DDD and CQRS Patterns. I like how they provide links for futher readying.
This book, even though it says it's specific to .NET, is a great, very recent (published months ago) book about architecting enterprise solutions and is applicable to both JEE and .NET (Two most common enterprise platforms). I read it at my work's book club over the last couple months, and it's a great modern read.
What is your programming background? Do you have any experience in other languages/frameworks?
I haven't used the book you mentioned, but these have been pretty helpful (listed in order of brain-melting complexity):
