Production-Ready Microservices

This book was born out of a production-readiness initiative I began running several months after I joined Uber Technologies as a site reliability engineer (SRE). Uber’s gigantic, monolithic API was slowly being broken into microservices, and at the time I joined, there were over a thousand microservices that had been split from the API and were running alongside it. Each of these microservices was designed, built, and maintained by an owning development team, and over 85% of these services had little to no SRE involvement, nor any access to SRE resources.

Kubernetes Secrets Handbook

Kubernetes Secrets management is a combination of practices and tools that help users to securely store and manage sensitive information, such as passwords, tokens, and certificates, within a Kubernetes cluster and keep them safe and secure. Securing Secrets such as passwords, API keys, and other sensitive information is critical for protecting applications and data from unauthorized access. Developers who understand Kubernetes Secrets management can help ensure that Secrets are managed securely and effectively, reducing the risk of security breaches. Many industries and regulatory frameworks have specific requirements for managing sensitive data. By learning Kubernetes Secrets management practices, developers can ensure that their applications comply with these requirements and avoid potential legal or financial penalties.

Visual Analytics Fundamentals

For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated by the power of a good story. Like taste buds, our taste for stories evolves over time, both in terms of format and content. Our appetite changes alongside age, experiences, and interests, yet still the desire for a good story persists. We crave stories; it’s part of our design. Humans are intrinsically hungry for a good story. They entertain us, educate us, and provide mechanisms to transmit knowledge, information, and experiences. We’re rather indiscriminate about how we receive stories, too. In fact, according to scientific evidence, we might even prefer stories that move us and touch our senses.

Information Technology and Educationalmanagement in the Knowledge Society

Developments in management information systems (MIS) have been well suited to the collation, storage and dissemination of summative assessment data and have reached a point where data can now be used for comparative purposes at national, local and individual pupil levels. Trends in assessment in English secondary schools have focused primarily on its use for purposes of monitoring and accountability.

The Scrum Anti-Patterns Guide

The primary purpose of The Scrum Anti-Patterns Guide: Challenges Every Scrum Team Faces and How to Overcome Them is to help Scrum practitioners identify, understand, and address commonly observed patterns of behavior that undermine the effectiveness of Scrum in achieving its goals. The book addresses these challenges—from the misaligned understanding of roles and practices to organizational issues—highlighting these anti-patterns and pointing to practical solutions. The guide seeks to enhance the application of Scrum, making it more effective in driving innovation, productivity, and overall value delivery. In real life, stakeholders are not usually interested in how we solve their problems as long as we ethically play by the rules of our society in alignment with our organization’s culture. Instead, they are interested in the regular delivery of valuable Increments.

The Role of an IT Manager

IT Managers need to wear a lot of hats. Different parts of the organization will have different expectations of this position, and you’ll have to address them all. Finance expects you to manage costs. Sales and Marketing will want to see IT help generate revenue. The auditors are looking over your shoulder. Your staff is looking for guidance, career development, and a work-life balance. The executive traveling to Dubai wants to know if his cell phone will work there, and how to use the hotel’s Wi-Fi. And the administrative assistant down the hall just wants her printer to stop smudging. This chapter examines the varied roles and responsibilities of an IT Manager.

The Language of SQL (Third Ed.)

A huge thanks goes out to all at Pearson who assisted with this book. I’d like to thank Kim Spencer, who encouraged me to write a third edition, and Chelsea Noack, who oversaw and guided me through the project, as well as the editors at Pearson who assisted with this project, Tracey Croom, Chris Zahn, and Sandra Schroeder. I’d also like to thank project editor and copy editor Dan Foster, who added some grace to my sentences, as well as Julien Kervizic, who did a superb job on the technical review. As with the second edition, Chuti Prasertsith provided a wonderfully vibrant cover design. Finally, I must mention the generally thankless tasks of the book’s indexer, Valerie Haynes Perry; proofreader, Scout Festa; and compositor, Danielle Foster.

The Async-First Playbook

We’ve come a long way. Pioneers like GitLab wrote the playbook for remote work over a decade ago, yet it took a global pandemic to open the world’s eyes to the possibilities of remote work. Today, many organizations embrace what we call “location independence.” This encapsulates the magic that happens when a business decouples results from physical geography. While this has transformed millions of lives and enterprises, it’s only the start of an even greater revolution. The future of remote work—or, dare I say, the future of work—is time independence. Since at least the advent of the internet, the majority of knowledge workers have remained bound to time. The way we design our lives and the dreams we allow ourselves to contemplate are constrained by a fixed reality: the rigidity of a workday. What happens when we shake off that rigidity? What design principles can humans apply to their own lives when we leverage tools, software, AI, and workflows to achieve professional goals outside the strict bounds of time? We begin to optimize for what matters most. We reprioritize our individual identity stacks—the layers that make us individually us. Businesses become stronger and more resilient to crises. They become magnets for the most talented people, those who value flexibility over all else and who generate otherworldly results as a measure of their gratitude.

Serverless as a Game Changer

The gap between the best software development teams and average software development teams is enormous. The best teams deliver delightful, scalable, stable software to users quickly and regularly. Average teams deliver acceptable software that works most of the time, with months or even years between significant improvements. Many teams even struggle to deliver anything but small, iterative changes, with even those taking surprising amounts of time. Software development and cloud services and tools make developing and deploying software increasingly cheaper, faster, and better—but very few organizations take advantage of these innovations. This book lays out the principles, strategies, and tactics that can propel your organization or teams to world-class output by harnessing a Serverless mindset. Historically, to deliver web-scale applications with wonderful customer experience, organizations have had to hire expensive, superior talent in many disciplines: networking, infrastructure, systems administration, software architecture, back-end software development, API design, and front-end application design. The demand for these talented employees has always exceeded the number of them, and most companies have simply been unable to acquire talent that would enable them to build products such as a Google or Netflix.

Second, it investigates how doing business in an international environment affects the design, implementation, and management of information systems for global enterprises.

Programming with Rust

Rust is a general-purpose language for creating safe, secure, and scalable applications. The language has features from several programming paradigms, as described shortly. Rust was originally designed as a systems programming language. However, it has emerged as a more versatile language capable of creating a variety of application types, including systems programming, web services, desktop applications, embedded systems, and more. Although it may sound cliché, what you can accomplish with Rust is only limited by your imagination. Different! That is an accurate assessment of Rust. Although the Rust syntax is based on the C and C++ languages, the similarity with other C-based languages often ends there. In addition, Rust is not different just to be different; it is a difference with a purpose. Rust’s borrow checker is an excellent example of a difference with a purpose. The borrow checker is a unique feature within Rust that promotes safe coding practices by enforcing rules related to the single ownership principal. No other language has this feature. For that reason, the borrow checker is a foreign concept to many developers but nonetheless invaluable.
