Exploring Data with Python
Python has become a required skill for data science, and it's easy to see why. It's powerful, easy to learn, and includes the libraries like Pandas, Numpy, and Scikit that help you slice, scrub, munge, and wrangle your data. Even with a great language and fantastic tools though, there's plenty to learn! Exploring Data with Python is a collection of chapters from three Manning books, hand-picked by Naomi Ceder, the chair of the Python Software Foundation. This free eBook starts building your foundation in data science processes with practical Python tips and techniques for working and aspiring data scientists. In it, you'll get a clear introduction to the data science process. Then, you'll practice using Python for processing, cleaning, and exploring interesting datasets. Finally, you'll get a practical demonstration of modelling and prediction with classification and regression. When you finish, you'll have a good overview of Python in data science and a well-lit path to continue yo ...

Agile Development for Serverless Platforms
You need more than great dev tools to release great software; you need an efficient pipeline that takes advantage of modern Agile development practices. Serverless platforms like AWS offer the basic building blocks you need to run code, store data, or process streaming information so you can focus on the features you want to provide, not get bogged down with the infrastructure. Combined with an agile process, serverless architectures help create a quick feedback loop between developers, end users, and businesses, allowing for the quick prototyping and easy production roll-out you need to innovate and react on the fly. Agile Development for Serverless Platforms helps you start thinking about how to apply Agile practices in fully serverless architectures. This book brings together excerpts from four Manning books selected by Danilo Poccia, the author of AWS Lambda in Action. These chapters are a fantastic way to lay the foundations for understanding the world of agile development on s ...
