DESCRIPTION Angular 2 is a JavaScript-based development platform for building dynamic, interactive web applications, SPAs, and mobile apps. Angular applications can be built with JavaScript or TypeScript. TypeScript offers great IDE support and the TypeScript compiler helps coders quickly find and fix errors. TypeScript feels familiar, much like using ES6 with the same standard and third-party libraries, idioms, and tools. TypeScript supports classes, modules, annotations, and lazy loading and minimizes the amount of code for supporting the framework’s life cycle, letting developers focus on writing the application code. Angular 2 Development with Typescript teaches the reader Angular 2, while it also teaches TypeScript and how to take advantage of its benefits.

Services like social networks, web analytics, and intelligent e-commerce often need to manage data at a scale too big for a traditional database. As scale and demand increase, so does Complexity. Fortunately, scalability and simplicity are not mutually exclusive— rather than using some trendy technology, a different approach is needed. Big data systems use many machines working in parallel to store and process data, which introduces fundamental challenges unfamiliar to most developers. Big Data shows how to build these systems using an architecture that takes advantage of clustered hardware along with new tools designed specifically to capture and analyze web-scale data. It describes a scalable, easy to understand approach to big data systems that can be built and
DESCRIPTION To be competitive, an organization needs to reach modern standards of scalability and high availability. While Linux is an option, it’s painful to deal with the frequent operating system updates and complex configuration management. Docker, a popular container system, can reduce these manual system administration tasks. While plenty of Linux distributions support Docker, they do not handle large scale production. This is where CoreOS can help. CoreOS is an operating system designed from the ground up to facilitate container use at any scale. CoreOS in Action begins by introducing the core components, how services run in CoreOS, and the big picture of how the parts fits together. Next, readers learn how to fire up their own CoreOS cluster. Readers learn
It’s tedious and time-consuming to create OS-specific versions of every desktop application, especially with different set of tools for each platform. NW.js radically simplifies desktop development, providing a true cross-platform development stack built on HTML, CSS and JavaScript, Node.js modules, and the Chrome Blink engine. NW.js applications interact with the host operating system just like any other platform-native project, so developers have full access to all local files and resources. The performance is great, and best of all, it saves developers time because they only have to write one version of their application. Cross-Platform Desktop Applications guides readers step-by-step as they learn to develop NW.js desktop applications that run
DESCRIPTION One day it happens—a big promotion to manager, technical team leader, architect, or scrum master puts an inexperienced leader in charge of a team that is looking for guidance. Personality clashes need to be worked out. Heated debates need to be mediated, and the team is constantly putting out fires instead of doing the right things, the right way. Everyone wants to do the right thing, but nobody seems to know how. This is where leaders can get stuck and need the guidance that elastic leadership offers. This framework and philosophy of leadership can help as they strive to manage day-to-day and long term challenges, and create the elusive self-organizing team by coming to understand that their leadership needs to change based on the needs and goals of
  DESCRIPTION A great suite of tools is needed to minimize the time spent on tedious non-coding tasks. Gulp is a build system that lets developers run a multitude of file transforming processes with a single click. And with so many libraries working together, a dependency manager such as Bower can keep track of versions, notify of conflicts, and in some cases even fix them. Finally, a scaffolding tool like Yeoman lets developers create applications and modules with just a single command. These tools allow for an efficient workflow that speeds up the time it takes to get applications running and deployed. Front� End Tooling with Gulp, Bower, and Yeoman shows how to use and combine these popular tools to set up a customized development workflow from start to

Written for readers who are curious about Linux or have to get up and running for a job. This book concentrates on the tasks Linux users need to know how to do. In
Microservices are responsible for very tightly focused capabilities that are part of a more complex server-side software system. Microservices, when done well, are malleable, scalable, resilient, and allow a short lead time from start of implementation to deployment to production. When using microservices, the need for the technology to be lightweight and low ceremony grows, because creating new microservices needs to be quick and easy. OWIN is great for reuse of plumbing code and a lightweight web framework, like Nancy, is ideal. Microservices in .NET teaches readers how to build and deploy secure and operations-friendly microservices using Nancy. The book starts with an introduction to the microservices architectural style.

  DESCRIPTION Users expect search to be simple: They enter a few terms and expect perfectly-organized, relevant results instantly. But behind this simple user experience, complex machinery is at work. Whether using Elasticsearch, Solr, or another search technology, the solution is never one size fits all. Returning the right search results requires conveying domain knowledge and business rules in the search engine's data structures, text analytics, and results ranking capabilities. Relevant Search demystifies relevance work. Using Elasticsearch, it tells how to return engaging search results to users, helping readers understand and leverage the internals of Lucene-based search engines. The book walks through several real-world problems using a cohesive philosophy

While graphs are often the most natural way to represent the connections among data, the complexity of large graphs makes them conceptually difficult and computationally expensive to explore, query, and analyze. GraphX, a powerful graph processing API for the Apache Spark analytics engine, makes it possible to efficiently explore and interpret large-scale graph data at near-realtime speeds. GraphX works with Spark's in-memory distributed framework to offer unprecedented speed and capacity for analyzing social media data, performing complex textual analysis, handling important machine learning algorithms, and much more. Spark GraphX in Action starts out with an overview of Apache Spark and the GraphX graph processing API. This example-based tutorial explains how
Working with big data can be complex and challenging, in part because of the multiple analysis frameworks and tools required. Apache Spark is a big data processing framework perfect for analyzing near-real-time streams and discovering historical patterns in batched data sets. But Spark goes much further than other frameworks. By including machine learning and graph processing capabilities, it makes many specialized data processing platforms obsolete. Spark's unified framework and programming model significantly lowers the initial infrastructure investment, and Spark's core abstractions are intuitive for most Scala, Java, and Python developers. Spark in Action teaches readers to use Spark for stream and batch data processing. It starts with an introduction to

DESCRIPTION Types are often seen as a tool for checking errors, with the programmer writing a complete program first and using the type checker to detect errors. And while tests are used to show presence of errors, they can only find errors that you explicitly test for. In typedriven development, types become your tools for constructing programs and, used appropriately, can show the absence of errors. And you can express precise relationships between data, your assumptions are explicit and checkable, and you can precisely state and verify properties. Type-driven development lets users write extensible code, create simple specifications very early in development, and easily create mock implementation for testing. Type-Driven Development with Idris, written by the
