    Abstract: Many organizations now run applications in cloud native environments, using containers and orchestration to facilitate scalability and resilience. But how do you know whether your deployment is secure? To fully grasp the security implications of containers and their operation, you'll need an understanding of what they are and how they work. In this excerpt from her forthcoming book Container Security, author Liz Rice takes you through the mechanisms that isolate and protect your applications within each container. This book as a whole looks at the building blocks and security boundaries commonly used in container-based systems and how they're constructed in the Linux operating system. 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

    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: 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: Operators are a way of packaging, deploying, and managing Kubernetes applications. A Kubernetes application doesn’t just run on Kubernetes; it’s composed and managed in Kubernetes terms. Operators add application-specific operational knowledge to a Kubernetes cluster, making it easier to automate complex, stateful applications and to augment the platform. Operators can coordinate application upgrades seamlessly, react to failures automatically, and streamline repetitive maintenance like backups. Think of Operators as site reliability engineers in software. They work by extending the Kubernetes control plane and API, helping systems integrators, cluster administrators, and application developers reliably deploy and manage key services and components. Using real-world examples, authors Jason Dobies and Joshua Wood demonstrate how to use Operators today and how to create Operators for your applications with the Operator Framework and SDK. Learn how to establish a Kubernetes cluster and deploy an Operator Examine a range of Operators from usage to implementation Explore the three pillars of the Operator Framework: the Operator SDK, the Operator Lifecycle Manager, and Operator Metering Build Operators from the ground up using the Operator SDK Build, package, and run an Operator in development, testing, and production phases Learn how to distribute your Operator for installation on Kubernetes clusters

    Abstract: As Python continues to grow in popularity, projects are becoming larger and more complex. Many Python developers are now taking an interest in high-level software architecture patterns such as hexagonal/clean architecture, event-driven architecture, and strategic patterns prescribed by domain-driven design (DDD). But translating those patterns into Python isn’t always straightforward. With this practical guide, Harry Percival and Bob Gregory from MADE.com introduce proven architectural design patterns to help Python developers manage application complexity. Each pattern is illustrated with concrete examples in idiomatic Python that explain how to avoid some of the unnecessary verbosity of Java and C# syntax. You’ll learn how to implement each of these patterns in a Pythonic way. Architectural design patterns include: Dependency inversion, and its links to ports and adapters (hexagonal/clean architecture) Domain-driven design’s distinction between entities, value objects, and aggregates Repository and Unit of Work patterns for persistent storage Events, commands, and the message bus Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) Event-driven architecture and reactive microservices

    Abstract: Most applications today are distributed in some fashion. Monitoring the health and performance of these distributed architectures requires a new approach. Enter distributed tracing, a method of profiling and monitoring applications—especially those that use microservice architectures. There’s just one problem: distributed tracing can be hard. But it doesn’t have to be. With this practical guide, you’ll learn what distributed tracing is and how to use it to understand the performance and operation of your software. Key players at LightStep walk you through instrumenting your code for tracing, collecting the data that your instrumentation produces, and turning it into useful, operational insights. If you want to start implementing distributed tracing, this book tells you what you need to know. You’ll learn: The pieces of a distributed tracing deployment: Instrumentation, data collection, and delivering value Best practices for instrumentation (the methods for generating trace data from your service) How to deal with or avoid overhead, costs, and sampling How to work with spans (the building blocks of request-based distributed traces) and choose span characteristics that lead to valuable traces Where distributed tracing is headed in the future

    Abstract: Can a system ever truly be considered reliable if it isn't fundamentally secure? In two previous O'Reilly books, experts from Google showed how reliability is fundamental to service design. Site Reliability Engineering and The Site Reliability Workbook demonstrated how and why a commitment to the entire service lifecycle enables organizations to successfully build, deploy, monitor, and maintain software systems. Security is also crucial to the design and operation of scalable systems in production, as it plays an important part in product quality, performance, reliability, and availability. In a world where most products are connected to the internet, and with cloud technologies and machine learning becoming more prevalent, enabling security by default is increasingly important. This book shares best practices to help an organization of any size design scalable and reliable systems that are fundamentally secure. It also offers insights into how teams across an organization can collaborate on security and reliability. Specifically, you'll learn about: Design Strategies Implementation and Operations Preparing for the Worst: Detection and Response Scaling Security and the Organization

    Abstract: Christie Koehler (HashiCorp) takes you through the fundamentals of Terraform as she uses it to deploy cloud infrastructure live. You'll orient yourself to the current state of the infrastructure as Christie open as a cloud shell and inspects the Terraform state file, then makes some changes to the Terraform configuration, which deploys a new pod and configures a web service for that pod. Terraform plan with those changes, review the plan, and apply. Take a look with Christie at the Kubernetes dashboard to verify the changes have been made, and review and approve a pending pull request to the Terraform configuration that sets up a simple serverless app in the cloud infrastructure. As before, Terraform plan with those changes, review, and apply. Then take a look at the cloud provider dashboard to verify the serverless function or application has been deployed, and test it. If there's time, Christie will walk you through how to detect and manage drift (i.e., when infrastructure changes outside of Terraform). This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Conference in Portland, OR.

    Abstract: Organizations are shifting from centralized control and planning to adaptive approaches focusing on time to market, delegated autonomy, and freedom to experiment. In this new world of two-pizza teams organized around microservices, there are two common failure modes: the first is hierarchical command and control from ivory-tower architects with strict lists of approved tools and rigorous control gates for design reviews at various stages; at the opposite end of the spectrum is chaos with every team doing whatever they want and close to zero governance. Jonny LeRoy explores the Goldilocks zone that makes sure organizational risks and opportunities are handled while still giving teams as much autonomy as possible within those constraints. He draws on ThoughtWorks's recent client experience to delve into some of the strategies and approaches for creating the Goldilocks zone of lightweight governance: automating compliance, focusing on vision, principles and constraints, enrolling gatekeepers as collaborators, paved roads and the pit of success, tech radar as a lightweight governance tool, and ADRs for visibility. He also touches on how to help architects become comfortable with evolution, the org design implications, how to be responsive to skill levels on teams, and how to think about innovation zones.

    Abstract: Many presentations on microservices offer a high-level view of the architecture; rarely do you hear what it's like to work in such an environment. Individual services are somewhat trivial to develop, but now you suddenly have countless others to track. You'll become obsessed over how they communicate. You'll have to start referring to the whole thing as "the Platform." You'll have to take on some considerable DevOps work and start learning about deployment pipelines, metrics, and logging. Don't panic. Stephen Pember (Toast) shares what he's learned over the past six years migrating from a monolith to microservices across several companies. He examines what a development lifecycle might look like for adding a new service, developing a feature, or fixing bugs. You'll see how team communication is more important than one might realize, as coordinating on architecture designs and implementation is crucial. Most importantly, he'll show how-while an individual service is simple-the infrastructure demands are now much more more complicated: your organization will need to introduce and become increasingly dependent on various technologies, procedures, and tools ranging from the ELK stack to Grafana to Kubernetes. You'll leave understanding why your resident SREs should be the most valued members of your team.

    Abstract: DevOps and platform teams have too many projects, not enough time, and users who are an email, message, or quick walk away to tap you on the shoulder to ask if that thing is done, because "it's really holding them up from completing something for real this time." James Heimbuck (SendGrid) shares some tried-and-true product management practices that help solve the problems of never-ending projects, squeaky wheels that demand priority, and projects that flop on launch. James discusses common product practices and the experience of introducing those at SendGrid in the tech ops org, including validating problems through customer interactions, using story maps to get to first-and-fast release, launching products for adoption, getting user feedback and incorporating it into the backlog, and sunsetting a product.

    Abstract: One of the most challenging aspects of microservice architectures is selecting the right infrastructure to make your services work seamlessly and effectively. What frameworks, tools and managed services will you select to build, package and deploy your services, manage connections, monitor, and, most importantly, protect and leverage your data? Your choices include open source solutions, enterprise versions, and cloud service providers. Things only get more confusing when you realize that you might be one acquisition or business decision away from needing to architect a hybrid cloud or multicloud solution. Jeff Carpenter details specifically the use of technologies for persisting and moving data in microservice architectures. He examines the concept of "polyglot persistence" and the proper usage of different styles of databases, caches, and streaming solutions. You'll consider effective patterns for combining these technologies, using Apache Cassandra and Apache Kafka as examples. This session is sponsored by DataStax.

    Abstract: If you're rolling out a large-scale infrastructure change, you know it can be like swapping out a jet engine while flying. Staying aloft takes coordination and communication with many teams, good processes and documentation, risk identification and management, monitoring, and tracking of the change progress-not to mention dealing with the catastrophic challenges that crop up midflight. In this report, technical program managers in Google SRE take you through case studies that demonstrate how infrastructure change projects are managed at Google. Authors Wendy Look and Mark Dallman offer an overview of two long-term projects at Google: one to migrate all of Google's systems from Google File System (GFS) to its successor, Colossus, and the other to move from local disk storage to diskless compute nodes for all jobs. You'll dive into the tools and processes used to manage the changes, see what worked (and what didn't), and discover lessons learned along the way. Best of all, you'll get a preflight checklist drawn from these experiences that will help you keep your own projects on course.

    Abstract: Microservices and containers have taken the software industry by storm. Transitioning from a monolith to microservices enables you to deploy your application more frequently, independently, and reliably. However, microservice architecture has its own challenges, and it has to deal with the same problems encountered while designing distributed systems. Enter service mesh technology to the rescue. A service mesh reduces the complexity associated with microservices and provides functionality like load balancing, service discovery, traffic management, circuit breaking, telemetry, fault injection, and more. Istio is one of the best implementations of a service mesh at this point, while Kubernetes provides a platform for running microservices and automating deployment of containerized applications. Join Samir Behara (EBSCO) to go beyond the buzz and understand microservices and service mesh technologies. This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference in San Jose.

    Abstract: Avoid data blunders and create truly useful visualizations Avoiding Data Pitfalls is a reputation-saving handbook for those who work with data, designed to help you avoid the all-too-common blunders that occur in data analysis, visualization, and presentation. Plenty of data tools exist, along with plenty of books that tell you how to use them-but unless you truly understand how to work with data, each of these tools can ultimately mislead and cause costly mistakes. This book walks you step by step through the full data visualization process, from calculation and analysis through accurate, useful presentation. Common blunders are explored in depth to show you how they arise, how they have become so common, and how you can avoid them from the outset.

    Abstract: The idea that architecture can support change was described by Neal Ford, Rebecca Parsons, and Pat Kua in 2017 as evolutionary architecture. How do we enable this kind of evolution? Architectural goals and constraints change independently of functional expectations. Fitness functions describe how close an architecture is to achieving an objective goal. During test-driven development, we write tests to verify that features conform to desired business outcomes; we can also write fitness functions that measure and monitor a system's alignment to architectural goals as they evolve. In order for technology to deliver lasting business value, it must be adaptable. Prose enterprise architecture standards or rigid architecture frameworks often don't have the flexibility to support constant change. Regardless of application architectures (monolith, microservices, microkernel, etc.) or business architecture, fitness function-driven development can introduce continuous feedback for architectural conformance and inform the development process as it happens rather than after the fact. Architecture can be expressed and tested as code, in a pipeline, in the same way we express and test business capability and infrastructure as code. The concept of architecture as code is a tremendous leap for most traditional architecture and development teams, challenging long-standing perceptions and mindsets. Paula Paul and Cassandra Shum (ThoughtWorks) share adventures in the enterprise as they take architects and engineers on a journey toward fitness function-driven development, with real-world hurdles and unexpected insights, as they rethink the connection between architecture and business value in a digital world.

    Abstract: For nearly a decade, Apache Kafka has been the go-to publish-subscribe (pub-sub) messaging system-and for good reason. It offers functionality for a wide range of enterprise use cases, along with a large ecosystem of tools and a dedicated community. But lately, upstart Apache Pulsar has been gaining ground. This detailed report explains why. Apache Pulsar takes the best parts of Kafka and expands on them to solve problems that were out of scope of Kafka's original design. Author Chris Bartholomew shows you how Kafka and Pulsar compare and where they differ. Engineers and other technical decision makers will learn the advantages that make Pulsar a compelling alternative to Kafka. Explore the architecture and major components of Kafka and Pulsar Discover the benefits of Pulsar's subscription model for messaging Understand how Pulsar simplifies the messaging system for organizations that need high performance pub-sub messaging, delivery guarantees, and traditional messaging patterns Learn how Pulsar's separation of serving and storing makes it natural to run in cloud native environments like Kubernetes See how Kafka and Pulsar perform on the OpenMessage Project benchmark

    Abstract: The number of microservices running in enterprises increases daily. As a result, service composition, governance, security, and observability are becoming a challenge to implement and incorporate. A cell-based architecture is an approach that can be applied to current or desired development and technologies to address these issues. This technology-neutral approach helps cloud-native dev teams become more efficient, act in a more self-organized manner, and speed up overall release times. Asanka Abeysinghe offers an overview of a cell-based reference architecture that is API-centric, cloud native, and microservices friendly. You'll learn the role of APIs in the cell-based approach and examine how real applications are built as cells. Along the way, Asanka explores metrics and approaches that can be used to measure the effectiveness of the architecture and demonstrates how organizations can implement the cell approach. This session is sponsored by WSO2.

    Abstract: So you want to test your complex application that involves large-scale distributed systems. But how do you feel about testing it effectively just using your test environment? Today, automated testing of Netflix client and server applications runs at scale in production. Within a few years, the company's testing has gone from a low-volume manual mode to one where it is continuous, voluminous, and fully automated. Collectively, Netflix teams create hundreds of thousands of tester accounts every day, each being used in thousands of test scenarios, to the point where service providers are more wary of getting paged for causing instability to internal testers than for causing an external outage. Vasanth Asokan offers a study of the evolution and anatomy of production testing at scale at Netflix, explaining why there was a desire to test in production, what Netflix did to try to keep testing out of production, and where testing belongs, anyway. Along the way, Vasanth shares a few case studies to demonstrate both the benefits and the less tangible diffused impacts of concentrated, uncoordinated testing against customer-facing infrastructure. Vasanth also looks at other forms of testing, such as load, failure, and simulation testing, and explains the role they play in ensuring a fully functioning customer experience. Join in to learn whether the benefits outweigh the risks of executing untested code in production or whether it's better to focus on creating a production mirror. If you run large-scale distributed systems, this talk will better inform your overall testing strategy, illustrate specific techniques that work at scale, and provide trade-offs to consider.

    Abstract: Provides a smooth and pleasant transition from first-year calculus to upper-level mathematics courses in real analysis, abstract algebra and number theory Most universities require students majoring in mathematics to take a "transition to higher math" course that introduces mathematical proofs and more rigorous thinking. Such courses help students be prepared for higher-level mathematics course from their onset. Advanced Mathematics: A Transitional Reference provides a "crash course" in beginning pure mathematics, offering instruction on a blendof inductive and deductive reasoning. By avoiding outdated methods and countless pages of theorems and proofs, this innovative textbook prompts students to think about the ideas presented in an enjoyable, constructive setting. Clear and concise chapters cover all the essential topics students need to transition from the "rote-orientated" courses of calculus to the more rigorous "proof-orientated" advanced mathematics courses. Topics include sentential and predicate calculus, mathematical induction, sets and counting, complex numbers, point-set topology, and symmetries, abstract groups, rings, and fields. Each section contains numerous problems for students of various interests and abilities. Ideally suited for a one-semester course, this book: Introduces students to mathematical proofs and rigorous thinking Provides thoroughly class-tested material from the authors own course in transitioning to higher math Strengthens the mathematical thought process of the reader Includes informative sidebars, historical notes, and plentiful graphics Offers a companion website to access a supplemental solutions manual for instructors Advanced Mathematics: A Transitional Reference is a valuable guide for undergraduate students who have taken courses in calculus, differential equations, or linear algebra, but may not be prepared for the more advanced courses of real analysis, abstract algebra, and number theory that await them. This text is also useful for scientists, engineers, and others seeking to refresh their skills in advanced math.

    Abstract: When creating a continuous delivery pipeline, many strive only to automate what they're already building instead of taking another look at old assumptions. When your goal is to deploy once a quarter, you may choose an architecture with tightly coupled services or components. If your goal is to be able to deploy on demand, this same architecture may be getting in your way. Join Ken Mugrage (ThoughtWorks) to discover how changing the architecture of your system to enable faster delivery can be more beneficial and stable than trying to automate deployment for systems that weren't designed for it. Closely related to the ability to deploy the application on demand is the ability to make sure it's doing what we expect it to every time. Acceptance tests, especially when browser based, are often considered so fragile that many organizations have simply stopped doing them. Ken shows you how to make architectural decisions that will make it easier to write and maintain quality-acceptance tests.

    Abstract: As our industry matures, there's been an evolution in attitude toward design. From Google to startups, there's a burgeoning belief that the competitive advantage lies in user experience. That said, most of us don't work with trained user experience designers. On small or dev-focused teams, we need to be scrappy, and often it's developers and engineers who make crucial user experience decisions-from workflows to errors to labels. Regardless of your team composition, having some rock-solid user experience principles will help improve the products you build and make your users' wildest dreams come true. Okay, maybe that's a stretch, but they'll definitely be glad you're willing to give them some love. Josh Clark and Mike Biglan (Twenty Ideas) give you some tools to use so that you, as a developer, can be a UX beast. They explore how to nurture curiosity as a means of understanding the user; how to leverage psychology, including decision science, in the process of developing workflows; how to communicate and argue well; and how to become a UX developer unicorn-winning friends and influencing people (including your boss) to become a more valuable and critical member of any team. Prerequisite knowledge Experience developing products What you'll learn Understand what UX is, why it's important, and how to think about UX front and center and work with experienced UX designers This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Software conference in Portland.

    Abstract: Technical debt is a funny thing. While the term attempts to make an analogy with financial debt, technical debt and financial debt have nothing in common. Instead, it's the name we give engineering decisions we disagree with. Robert "r0ml" Lefkowitz (Retired) offers an overview of technical debt, explaining how to recognize it, how to prevent or reduce it, and how come we see so much of it. Many so-called best practices today, are, in fact, technical debt factories. The reason we have so much of it is that we eagerly create it at earlier stages of an organization and fail to alter our approaches soon enough when the organization matures, and these early practices which were "investment" become "debt." Robert discusses many of these practices. One of these is microservices-often undertaken as a technique for increasing agility, at the cost of manufacturing tech debt. Robert details common methods for avoiding increasing the tech debt burden by deploying microservices. Robert explores two primary themes that apply to multiple software methods. The first is the principle of parsimony, which dates back to the ancient Greeks but was popularized more recently by the 12th century theologian William of Ockham. The second theme is the doctrine of immutability. This idea, too, flowered during the Middle Ages and is enjoying a renaissance today with the rise of functional programming languages. Robert dives into both of these ideas as they apply to data types, programming languages, network protocols, software dependencies, configuration management, and more. This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference in New York.

    Abstract: The new edition of the bestselling guide on creating and using key performance indicators-offers significant new and revised content Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) help define and measure the organizational goals which are fundamental to an organization's current and future success. Having solid KPIs is crucial for companies that are implementing performance management systems, such as balanced scorecards, six sigma, or activity-based management. In many organizations, KPIs are often too numerous, randomly assembled, and overly complex-essentially rendering them ineffectual, or at worse, counterproductive. Key Performance Indicators provides a model for simplifying the complex areas of KPIs while helping organizations avoid common mistakes and hazards.

    Abstract: A RESTful approach to microservices can improve the stability and resilience of services, reduce the need for extensive changes and redeployment when the domain model changes, and greatly increase the flexibility of individual services, including the ability to automatically work with other newly discovered services. Mike Amundsen walks you through building adaptable microservices that take advantage of the features of REST, including statelessness, self-description, and using hypermedia to discover and modify application state. You'll learn how to design services that advertise themselves to the network, discover their own "partner" services, and can adapt to subtle changes to existing services without relying only on recode-and-redeploy patterns for maintaining overall system operation.
