Managing Kubernetes Traffic with F5 Nginx
Microservices architectures introduce several benefits to the application development and delivery process. Microservices-based apps are easier to build, test, maintain, and scale. They also reduce downtime through better fault isolation. While container-based microservices apps have profoundly changed the way DevOps teams deploy applications, they have also introduced challenges. Kubernetes - the de facto container orchestration platform - is designed to simplify management of containerized apps, but it has its own complexities and a steep learning curve. This is because responsibility for many functions that traditionally run inside an app (security, logging, scaling, and so on) are shifted to the Kubernetes networking fabric. To manage this complexity, DevOps teams need a data plane that gives them control of Kubernetes networking. The data plane is the key component that connects microservices to end users and each other, and managing it effectively is critical to achieving s ...

Modern Full-Stack Development, 2nd Edition
Explore what React, Node, Python, Django, TypeScript, Webpack, and Docker have to offer individually, and how they all fit together in modern app development. This updated version will show you how to build apps with React, Node.js or Django, and TypeScript, and how Webpack can be used to optimize and organize your code for deployment. You'll begin by building a solid foundation of knowledge and quickly expand it by constructing three different real-world apps. These aren't just simple, contrived examples but real apps that you can choose to install on your servers and use for real. You'll also understand how Docker can be used to run the apps you build in a clear and well-defined way, all of which will be able to springboard you into creating more advanced apps on your own. You'll see why React is one of the most popular web development tools available today, and why Node.js is also frequently used for server-side development. The fact that both utilize JavaScript is a big selli ...

Modern Concurrency on Apple Platforms
Build solid software with modern and safe concurrency features. Concurrency is one of the hardest problems in computer science. For years, computer scientists and engineers have developed different strategies for dealing with concurrency. However, the original concurrency primitives are complicated and difficult to understand, and even harder to implement. Using the new async/await APIs in Swift, this book will explain how your code can abstract a lot of the complexity with a simpler interface so you never have to deal with concurrency primitives such as semaphores, locks, and threads yourself. This will allow you to write concurrent code that is easier to read, easier to write, and easier to maintain. These new APIs are deeply ingrained into Swift, offering compile-level features that will keep you from writing dangerous concurrent code. You'll start by exploring why concurrency is hard to implement in a traditional system. Explaining the definition of concurrency and what its pri ...

Intermediate Microeconomics with Microsoft Excel
This book is based on the idea that there is a particular framework used by economists to interpret observed reality. This framework has been called the economic way of thinking, the economic approach, and the method of economics. This book is different from the many other books that attempt to teach microeconomics in three ways: - It explicitly applies the recipe of the economic approach in every example. - It uses concrete examples via Microsoft Excel in every application, which enables the reader to manipulate live graphs and learn numerical methods of optimization. - The majority of the content is in the Excel workbooks which the reader uses to create meaning. You learn by doing, not by reading. ...
