In the featured chapter, "Container Isolation," you'll learn how namespaces limit the set of files and directories that particular container processes can see, functionally isolating them from other operations. Learn how a container is actually a Linux process with a restricted view of the machine it's running on Explore the different namespaces typically used to create Linux containers Examine how containerized processes are isolated from the host and other containerized processes

High-performing teams don't happen by magic. You need processes that are designed in a socially intelligent way if your team is going to overcome the modern world's tough challenges with coordination. To be a star project manager, you have to communicate with people in their individual learning styles, provide accountability in ways that won't be demotivating, and run meetings and minutes that people won't tune out. Your processes must be constructed in ways that respect the complex realities of social dynamics step by step. You have to know your team before you can motivate them, and you have to motivate them before you can manage them. In this book are foolproof techniques to make sure your team connects with you, each other, and everyone they need to get the job done. After all, a team should be more than the sum of its parts-and it's up to the project manager to provide the glue that holds it all together.

    Abstract: The world's most valuable resource is data. Companies across all industry verticals are using data-driven insights as a key competitive advantage. But the time required for transforming raw data to insights can take days or weeks when you want it in minutes or hours. Data scientists spend nearly 80% of their time in data engineering, rather than developing insights. And most organizations can't scale their data science teams fast enough to keep up with growing business needs for better, faster insights. This book will help data engineers, data scientists, and data team managers address these issues by building a self-service data science platform that democratizes the ability to extract insights from the data to everyone in the organization. Data scientists, software engineers, product managers, and marketers can use it to discover, transform, and analyze data and publish automated insights in production. This book is not: A deep dive into the "shiny new" technologies, or any one specific technology A silver bullet technology for building a self-service portal. Organizations differ in their maturity, people, process, and technology and require tailored solutions This book is: A collection of must-have operational capabilities for building a self-service data portal A blueprint for achieving better and faster insights A process for democratizing data engineering expertise across an organization A practical and indispensable guide for any decision-maker, implementer, or strategist working with an organization's data science platform

    Abstract: The coauthors of the seminal book The Virtual Corporation describe how the rise of artificial intelligence and virtual environments are ushering in an epic cultural transformation-and how we can thrive in this new era. We are at the dawn of the Autonomous Revolution, a turning point in human history as decisive as the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions. More and more, AI-based machines are replacing human beings, and online environments are gathering our data and using it to manipulate us. This loss of human autonomy amounts to nothing less than a societal phase change, a fundamental paradigm shift. The same institutions will remain-schools, banks, churches, and corporations-but they will radically change form, obey new rules, and use new tools. William H. Davidow and Michael S. Malone go deeply into the enormous implications of these developments. They show why increases in productivity no longer translate into increases in the GDP and how zero cost, one-to-many communications have been turned into tools for cybercrime and propaganda. Many of the book's recommendations-such as using taxes to control irresponsible internet behavior and enabling people to put their data into what are essentially virtual personal information "safety deposit boxes"-are bold and visionary, but we must figure out how we will deal with these emerging challenges now, before the Autonomous Revolution overcomes us.

    Abstract: Discover best practices for real world data research with SAS code and examples Real world health care data is common and growing in use with sources such as observational studies, patient registries, electronic medical record databases, insurance healthcare claims databases, as well as data from pragmatic trials. This data serves as the basis for the growing use of real world evidence in medical decision-making. However, the data itself is not evidence. Analytical methods must be used to turn real world data into valid and meaningful evidence. Real World Health Care Data Analysis: Causal Methods and Implementation Using SAS brings together best practices for causal comparative effectiveness analyses based on real world data in a single location and provides SAS code and examples to make the analyses relatively easy and efficient. The book focuses on analytic methods adjusted for time-independent confounding, which are useful when comparing the effect of different potential interventions on some outcome of interest when there is no randomization. These methods include: propensity score matching, stratification methods, weighting methods, regression methods, and approaches that combine and average across these methods methods for comparing two interventions as well as comparisons between three or more interventions algorithms for personalized medicine sensitivity analyses for unmeasured confounding

    Abstract: Proven customer engagement approaches for winning in the most important moments driving profitability and growth-customer retention and expansion Industry analysts report that up 70- 80% of business growth comes from existing customers. So why are you still investing mainly in attracting new customers? And, leaving renewals and upsells to chance? Or, worse yet, using a one-size-fits all approach to acquisition as you do for expansions? The Expansion Sale provides everything you need to seize the competitive edge in the customer-success space. Authors Erik Peterson and Tim Riesterer explain how the buying psychology of existing customers differs from that of new customers, and show how to adapt your commercial engagement strategies accordingly. They provide clear, easy-to-apply messaging frameworks for creating and delivering winning conversations in the four must-win commercial moments of customer success: ensuring renewals, communicating price increases, increasing upsells, and apologizing effectively for service failures.

    Abstract: Breathe new life into older applications by refactoring T-SQL queries and code using modern techniques. This book shows you how to significantly improve the performance of older applications by finding common anti-patterns in T-SQL code, then rewriting those anti-patterns using new functionality that is supported in current versions of SQL Server, including SQL Server 2019. The focus moves through the different types of database objects and the code used to create them, discussing the limitations and anti-patterns commonly found for each object type in your database. Legacy code isn't just found in queries and external applications. It's also found in the definitions of underlying database objects such as views and tables. This book helps you quickly find problematic code throughout the database and points out where and how modern solutions can replace older code, thereby making your legacy applications run faster and extending their lifetimes. Author Lisa Bohm explains the logic behind each anti-pattern, helping you understand why each pattern is a problem and showing how it can be avoided. Good coding habits are discussed, including guidance on topics such as readability and maintainability. What You Will Learn Find specific areas in code to target for performance gains Identify pain points quickly and understand why they are problematic Rewrite legacy T-SQL to reduce or eliminate hidden performance issues Write modern code with an awareness of readability and maintainability Recognize and correlate T-SQL anti-patterns with techniques for better solutions Make a positive impact on application user experience in your organization Who This Book Is For Database administrators or developers who maintain older code, those frustrated with complaints about slow code when there is so much of it to fix, and those who want a head start in making a positive impact on application user experience in their organization

    Abstract: Developers building apps targeting desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets have two options to use when building their apps: native apps built specifically for the target platform, or web apps, which run on most any system. Building native apps for any target platform is a time-consuming and expensive proposition, especially when your app targets multiple system types (desktop computers, smartphones, televisions, etc.). Web apps are challenging because a user experiences vary dramatically depending on which type of system the user accessed the app from. Desktop browsers are fully capable, but mobile device browsers have limitations due to reduce screen real estate, processor speed, network bandwidth, and more. Many of these limitations have disappeared, but there's still considerable disparity between native app and web app capabilities. Over the years, web browsers, especially those running on mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, exposed more native capabilities to web apps. This enables web apps to work more like native apps, but there were still limitations. Service Workers are a relatively new technology that make it easier for web apps to bridge the gap between native and web capabilities, removing many limitations from web apps. This is a book about Service Workers, focusing on how to use Service Workers to enhance the capabilities of a web app to create a Progressive Web App (PWA). This book focuses on the technologies enabling PWAs, and how to use them to enhance your web apps to deliver a more native-like experience. Learning Progressive Web Apps is the first of a new generation of PWA guides that reflect breakthrough advances such as Service Workers and Web App Manifests, helping you combine the best features of web and mobile development. One step at a time, John M. Wargo introduces techniques for building apps, highlighting Building web apps a user can easily install on their local system Building web apps that work offline or on low quality networks Implementing caching strategies that give web developers control over which app resources are cached and when Delivering background processing in a web application Implementing push notifications to enable an app to more easily engage with users or trigger action from a remote server As you work through the chapters, at different points you'll start with one of three complete, stand-alone web apps, then convert them into PWAs using service workers and other browser technolo...

    Abstract: This first comprehensive guide to helping mentors and mentees bridge gaps between and among cultures-a growing issue in today's diverse workplace-is coauthored by the founder and CEO of the Center for Mentoring Excellence. As the workplace has become more diverse, mentoring has become more challenging. Mentors and mentees may come from very different backgrounds and have limited understanding of each other's cultures and outlooks. But mentoring remains the most powerful tool for creating meaningful relationships, furthering professional development, and increasing engagement and retention. Younger workers and emerging leaders in particular are demanding it. Lisa Z. Fain and Lois J. Zachary offer a timely, evidence-based, practical guide for helping mentors develop the level of cultural competency needed to bridge differences. Firmly rooted in Zachary's well-known four-part mentoring model, the book uses three fictional scenarios featuring three pairs of diverse mentors and mentees to illustrate how key concepts can play out in real life. It offers an array of accessible tools and strategies designed to help you increase your self-awareness and prepare you to embrace and leverage differences in your mentoring relationships. But beyond tips and techniques, Fain and Zachary emphasize that authenticity is the key-the ultimate purpose of this book is to help the mentor and mentee make a genuine connection and learn from each other. That's when the magic really happens.

    Abstract: If your past attempts at learning flash have all ended in failure (not to mention tears and/or blind rage), then The Off-Camera Flash Handbook is about to change everything for you. For years, photographer Vanessa Joy has been using off-camera flash to create gorgeous portraits that look like they were shot in the most beautiful natural light at the perfect time of day. Well, guess what? That consistent look was not created thanks to the most amazing luck with the weather. No. It was created by a pro photographer who mastered her use of off-camera flash. And with her down-to-earth and practical explanations, that's exactly what Vanessa teaches you in this book. Vanessa breaks down off-camera flash into an easy-to-understand approach, and instead of focusing on the gear and the settings (which are also included, of course), she focuses on the kinds of shots you want to make. This book is about learning to use off-camera flash easily and quickly so that you can create beautiful, natural-looking light in any situation, at any time you need it...regardless of the weather or time of day. The book is divided into three parts. Part One covers the fundamentals of off-camera flash, and it does so without blasting you with a firehose of information. Instead, Vanessa gives you the basics you need so that you can start shooting right away without becoming overwhelmed with technical jargon. Once you're set up and ready to go, Vanessa jumps right into Part Two with specific photo scenarios and real-world situations where you'll learn key techniques for using your flash to create consistent, beautiful photographs. For each scenario, Vanessa provides the goal for the shoot, a gear list, the step-by-step shooting instructions, and images that show both the progress of the shoot and the behind-the-scenes shots or lighting diagrams of the setup. She also discusses problems you may encounter, variations on the shot, and additional practical scenarios for each situation. Just a few examples include: • Recreating the golden hour at any time • Shooting groups • Making indoors look like outdoors • Enhancing natural light • Using flash at events • Working in harsh sunlight • Creating silhouettes • Shooting at sunset • Fixing an ugly-light room • And much more Finally, Part Three tackles the questions you'll likely have once you've got the basics under your belt and you're already creating great photos with your off-camera flash-things like high-speed sync, sync speed, a...

    Abstract: "The ultimate all-in-one guide to becoming a great leader." -Daniel Pink From the creator and host of The Learning Leader Show , "the most dynamic leadership podcast out there" ( Forbes ) that will "help you lead smarter" ( Inc .), comes an essential tactical guide for newly promoted managers. Every year, millions of top performers are promoted to management-level jobs-only to discover that the tactics that got them promoted are not the tactics that will make them effective in their new role. In Welcome to Management , Ryan Hawk provides practical, actionable advice and tools designed to ensure that transition is a successful one. He presents a new actionable three-part framework distilled from best practices drawn from in-depth interviews with over 300 of the most forward-thinking leaders around the world, as well as his own professional experience going from exceptional individual producer to new leader. Learn how to: • lead yourself : build skills and earn credibility. Compliance can be commanded, but commitment cannot. People reserve their full capacity for emotional commitment for leaders they find credible, and credibility must be earned. • build your team : develop a healthy and sustainable culture of mutual trust and respect that creates cohesion. This includes effective hiring and firing practices. • lead your team: set a clear strategy and vision for your team, communicate effectively, and ultimately drive the results the organization is counting on your team to deliver. Through case studies, hundreds of interviews, and personal stories, the book will help high performers make the leap from individual contributor to manager with greater ease, grace, courage, and effectiveness. Welcome to management!

    Abstract: The Mac user's guide to mass storage Updated December 10, 2019 As the amount of data we store continues to grow, figuring out where to put it and how to access it becomes more complicated. It's not just that we need to find space for our increasingly large collections of photos, videos, music, and apps-we want it to be available whenever we need it, and be sure that it's safe from hackers and thieves. Every Mac includes internal storage in the form of a hard drive, SSD, or Fusion drive. But you may also have one or more external devices (such as hard drives, flash drives, SD cards, or RAID devices), not to mention network-attached storage (NAS) devices or cloud storage (like Dropbox or iCloud Drive). Making sense of all your options, managing your stored data, choosing new devices or services when you're running out of space, or even just figuring out what's where can drive anyone to distraction. Fortunately, Jeff Carlson has a book with all the answers! After decades of working with Macs and accumulating massive collections of photos and videos, Jeff has pulled together a wide-ranging book about Mac storage that contains just the help you're looking for. Among many other topics, this book covers: How to choose a new (internal or external) hard drive, SSD, or hybrid drive Determining how much storage space you need What you need to know about APFS, Apple's new filesystem Formatting and partitioning disks using Disk Utility How to repair a misbehaving disk RAIDs: what they are and how different types compare What to do with a hard drive when it has outlived its usefulness When to use a flash drive or SD card How to create and use disk images Deciding among local, network, and cloud storage for various types of files What a personal cloud is and why you might consider using one Strategies for freeing up extra disk space NAS devices get special coverage, including: How to choose a NAS-and when it's a better idea than an external hard drive Using a NAS with your Mac for a wide variety of purposes Special considerations when using a NAS for digital photos Jeff also digs into details about numerous storage-related technologies: How to tell if your third-party SSD needs to have TRIM enabled (and what to do if the answer is yes) How to create a software RAID using Disk Utility or SoftRAID What you need to know about filesystems-and how to choose among APFS, Mac OS Extended, FAT, and ExFAT Why and how to encrypt a disk using FileVault or the Finder Usi...

It teaches you: how to look at data in a new way, to recognize the most common issues that hinder analytics, and how to mitigate those factors one by one. Tableau can change the course of business, but the old adage of "garbage in, garbage out" is the hard truth that hides behind every Tableau sales pitch. That amazing sales demo does not work as well with bad data. The unfortunate reality is that almost all data starts out in a less-than-perfect state. Data prep is hard. Traditionally, we were forced into the world of the database where complex ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) operations created by the data team did all the heavy lifting for us. Fortunately, we have moved past those days. With the introduction of the Tableau Data Prep tool you can now handle most of the common Data Prep and cleanup tasks on your own, at your desk, and without the help of the data team. This essential book will guide you through: The layout and important parts of the Tableau Data Prep tool Connecting to data Data quality and consistency The shape of the data. Is the data oriented in columns or rows? How to decide? Why does it matter? What is the level of detail in the source data? Why is that important? Combining source data to bring in more fields and rows Saving the data flow and the results of our data prep work Common cleanup and setup tasks in Tableau Desktop What You Will Learn Recognize data sources that are good candidates for analytics in Tableau Connect to local, server, and cloud-based data sources Profile data to better understand its content and structure Rename fields, adjust data types, group data points, and aggregate numeric data Pivot data Join data from local, server, and cloud-based sources for unified analytics Review the steps and results of each phase of the Data Prep process Output new data sources that can be reviewed in Tableau or any other analytics tool Who This Book Is For Tableau Desktop users who want to: connect to data, profile the data to identify common issues, clean up those issues, join to additional data sources, and save the newly cleaned, joined data so that it can be used more effectively in Tableau

The author - a successful, long-time practicing engineering project manager - describes the techniques and strategies for creating a successful engineering project. The book introduces engineering projects and their management, and then proceeds stage-by-stage through the engineering life-cycle project, from requirements, implementation, to phase-out. The book offers information for understanding the needs of the end user of a product and other stakeholders associated with a project, and is full of techniques based on real, hands-on management of engineering projects. The book starts by explaining how we perform the actual engineering on projects; the techniques for project management contained in the rest of the book use those engineering methods to create superior management techniques. Every topic - from developing a work-breakdown structure and an effective project plan, to creating credible predictions for schedules and costs, through monitoring the progress of your engineering project - is infused with actual engineering techniques, thereby vastly increasing the effectivity and credibility of those management techniques. The book also teaches you how to draw the right conclusions from numeric data and calculations, avoiding the mistakes that often cause managers to make incorrect decisions. The book also provides valuable insight about what the author calls the social aspects of engineering project management: aligning and motivating people, interacting successfully with your stakeholders, and many other important people-oriented topics. The book ends with a section on ethics in engineering. This important book: Offers a hands-on guide for developing and implementing a project management plan Includes background information, strategies, and techniques on project management designed for engineers Takes an easy-to-understand, step-by-step approach to project management Contains ideas for launching a project, managing large amount of software, and tips for ending a project Structured to support both undergraduate and graduate courses in engineering project management, Engineering Project Management is an essential guide for managing a successful project from the idea phase to the completion of the project.

    Keywords: Electronic books ; local ; Electronic books
    Abstract: Create database designs that scale, meet business requirements, and inherently work toward keeping your data structured and usable in the face of changing business models and software systems. This book is about database design theory. Design theory is the scientific foundation for database design, just as the relational model is the scientific foundation for database technology in general. Databases lie at the heart of so much of what we do in the computing world that negative impacts of poor design can be extraordinarily widespread. This second edition includes greatly expanded coverage of exotic and little understood normal forms such as: essential tuple normal form (ETNF), redundancy free normal form (RFNF), superkey normal form (SKNF), sixth normal form (6NF), and domain key normal form (DKNF). Also included are new appendixes, including one that provides an in-depth look into the crucial notion of data consistency. Sequencing of topics has been improved, and many explanations and examples have been rewritten and clarified based upon the author's teaching of the content in instructor-led courses. This book aims to be different from other books on design by bridging the gap between the theory of design and the practice of design. The book explains theory in a way that practitioners should be able to understand, and it explains why that theory is of considerable practical importance. Reading this book provides you with an important theoretical grounding on which to do the practical work of database design. Reading the book also helps you in going to and understanding the more academic texts as you build your base of knowledge and expertise. Anyone with a professional interest in database design can benefit from using this book as a stepping-stone toward a more rigorous design approach and more lasting database models. What You Will Learn Understand what design theory is and is not Be aware of the two different goals of normalization Know which normal forms are truly significant Apply design theory in practice Be familiar with techniques for dealing with redundancy Understand what consistency is and why it is crucially important Who This Book Is For Those having a professional interest in database design, including data and database administrators; educators and students specializing in database matters; information modelers and database designers; DBMS designers, implementers, and other database vendor personnel; and database consultants.

    Abstract: Blockchain-based protocols like Bitcoin and Ethereum have made sending digital values in the form of tokens as cheap and easy as sending an email. But while cryptographic tokens (sometimes called "cryptocurrencies") may be as important to the next-generation internet as the World Wide Web was to Web 1.0, people aren't yet sure how to best design tokens or even what to do with them. In this report, Shermin Voshmgir, director of the Research Institute for Crypto Economics at the Vienna University of Economics, walks you through the different types of tokens, along with their properties and both operational and conceptual use cases. You'll get a concise overview of the current state of tokenization in our economy and explore the potential effects and dynamics of a future "token economy." You'll learn: What a token is A framework for determining the properties of a token Common use cases for different token types The relationship between tokens and money (including the functions of money that most current tokens don't fulfill) Where the token economy is headed

    Abstract: Microservices have become an increasingly popular architecture choice over the past five years. With the ability to deliver software faster and support newer technologies, these independently releasable services give software architects, programmers, and developers more freedom to react, make different decisions, and respond faster to change. In this report, you'll explore the benefits of microservices and their limitations. You'll learn what microservices are, how they work, and why this approach is different than other ways of decomposing your architecture. Author Sam Newman ( Building Microservices , Monolith to Microservices ) explains that while many companies have shown how effective microservices can be, this architecture also adds a lot of complexity to your system. This report helps you determine if microservices are right for your organization. Learn the key concepts of a microservices architecture Examine microservice advantages, including robustness, scaling, and ease of deployment Contrast microservices with single-process, modular, and distributed monoliths Explore enabling technologies such as containers and Kubernetes, streaming, public cloud, and serverless Understand microservice pain points: technology overhead, monitoring and troubleshooting, security, and data consistency Learn situations where microservices work well-and situations where they don't

    The Photoshop Elements 2020 Book for Digital Photographers (2019)

    Abstract: ARE YOU READY FOR AN ELEMENTS BOOK THAT BREAKS ALL THE RULES? This book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that's never been done before-it cuts through the bull and shows you exactly "how to do it." It's not a bunch of theory; it doesn't challenge you to come up with your own settings or figure things out on your own. Instead, it does something that virtually no other Elements book has ever done-it tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why. If you're looking for one of those "tell-me-everything-about-the-Unsharp-Mask-filter" books, this isn't it. You can grab any other Elements book on the shelf, because they all do that. Instead, this book gives you the inside tips and tricks of the trade for organizing, correcting, editing, sharpening, retouching, and printing your photos like a pro. You'll be absolutely amazed at how easy and effective these techniques are-once you know the secrets. LEARN HOW THE PROS DO IT Each year Scott trains thousands of digital photographers and, almost without exception, they have the same questions and face the same problems-that's exactly what he covers in this book. You'll learn: How to unlock the power of layers (you'll be amazed at how easy it is!) How to use Camera Raw for processing not only RAW photos, but JPEGs, TIFFs, and PSDs too! (And you'll learn why so many pros like it best-because it's faster and easier) The sharpening techniques the pros really use (there's an entire chapter just on this!) How to deal with common digital camera image problems, including brightening people in dark shadows and getting the best color possible The most requested photographic special effects, and much more! THE BOOK'S SECRET WEAPON Although Elements 2020 offers some digital photography features that Photoshop doesn't offer, there are plenty of features that Photoshop has that Elements 2020 doesn't (like channels, HDR, etc.). But in this book, you'll learn some slick workarounds, cheats, and fairly ingenious ways to replicate many of those Photoshop features right within Elements. Plus, you can download many of the images used in the book, so you can follow right along with the techniques. Since this book is designed for photographers, it doesn't waste your time talking about what a pixel is, how to frame a shot or set your exposure, etc., and there's no talk about which camera or printer to buy. It's all Elements, step by step, cover to cover, in the only book o...
