Continuous API Management, 2nd Edition
A lot of work is required to release an API, but the effort doesn't always pay off. Overplanning before an API matures is a wasted investment, while underplanning can lead to disaster. The second edition of this book provides maturity models for individual APIs and multi-API landscapes to help you invest the right human and company resources for the right maturity level at the right time. How do you balance the desire for agility and speed with the need for robust and scalable operations? Four experts show software architects, program directors, and product owners how to maximize the value of their APIs by managing them as products through a continuous lifecycle. - Learn which API decisions you need to govern - Design, deploy, and manage APIs using an API-as-a-product (AaaP) approach - Examine 10 pillars that form the foundation of API product work - Learn how the continuous improvement model governs changes throughout an API's lifetime - Explore the five stages of a complete ...

Raku One-Liners
You are reading a book about the Raku programming language. This language has appeared as a rename of Perl 6 in October 2019. Like its parent, Perl 5, the Raku language keeps the spirit of being a powerful tool in many areas, from devops programs for configuration management through different command-line applications to concurrent web servers. In this book, you will find a number of short programs that you may want to use in your daily practice. You will also find a number of one-line snippets that can enter into your bigger programs. The goal of the book is not to give a copy-and-paste list of coding examples, but to explain the various bits of Raku that help to use the language more efficiently. ...

Scaling Python with Ray
Serverless computing enables developers to concentrate solely on their applications rather than worry about where they've been deployed. With the Ray general-purpose serverless implementation in Python, programmers and data scientists can hide servers, implement stateful applications, support direct communication between tasks, and access hardware accelerators. In this book, experienced software architecture practitioners Holden Karau and Boris Lublinsky show you how to scale existing Python applications and pipelines, allowing you to stay in the Python ecosystem while reducing single points of failure and manual scheduling. Scaling Python with Ray is ideal for software architects and developers eager to explore successful case studies and learn more about decision and measurement effectiveness. If your data processing or server application has grown beyond what a single computer can handle, this book is for you. ...
