    Abstract: The great cloud migration is picking up steam. Companies moving all or part of their IT workloads to the public cloud for backup, email hosting, productivity apps or all of the above will generate $44 billion in costs during 2018 alone. So, the question is not if but how enterprises plan to make the move. This ebook provides a practical seven-step migration plan to prepare your company for the journey. Author Steve Francis provides a prescriptive look at the best practices needed to ensure a successful transition. You'll also learn from several IT and business leaders about their recent cloud migration experiences, including pitfalls to avoid. This seven-step plan focuses on three major benefits of the cloud: operational agility, strategic focus, and cost savings: Identify desired outcomes before you get into migration specifics Classify candidates for the cloud, including applications or workloads best suited for the move Define deployment model criteria-IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, or a private cloud Devise an iterative, agile process for transformation among your teams Get buy-in to the plan from people at the top and in the trenches Start simply with a project that's relatively risk-free-one you're likely to learn from the most Rinse and repeat by applying lessons learned to the next workload or application

    Abstract: The way developers design, build, and run software has changed significantly with the evolution of microservices and containers. These modern architectures use new primitives that require a different set of practices than most developers, tech leads, and architects are accustomed to. With this focused guide, Bilgin Ibryam and Roland Huß from Red Hat provide common reusable elements, patterns, principles, and practices for designing and implementing cloud-native applications on Kubernetes. Each pattern includes a description of the problem and a proposed solution with Kubernetes specifics. Many patterns are also backed by concrete code examples. This book is ideal for developers already familiar with basic Kubernetes concepts who want to learn common cloud-native patterns. You'll learn about the following pattern categories: Foundational patterns cover the core principles and practices for building container-based cloud-native applications. Behavioral patterns explore finer-grained concepts for managing various types of container and platform interactions. Structural patterns help you organize containers within a pod, the atom of the Kubernetes platform. Configuration patterns provide insight into how application configurations can be handled in Kubernetes. Advanced patterns cover more advanced topics such as extending the platform with operators.

    Abstract: Why are so many companies embracing cloud native development? Getting new features into the hands of demanding customers requires a faster and more efficient approach than traditional development methods. The most successful organizations today use cloud native to develop innovative software products and services with speed and scalability not possible with the static waterfall development method. In this ebook, Bill Laberis explores cloud native by defining various interrelated elements of this approach. By learning terms such as DevOps, microservices, and continuous delivery, you'll understand why cloud native is much more about how applications are built and deployed than where. This ebook includes case studies of how the Financial Times, Volkswagen, ASOS, and DISH adopted cloud native. You'll examine cloud native practices and components such as: DevOps: Practices for removing barriers between development and operations Continuous delivery, continuous upgrades, and automated scalability: Practices vital to DevOps success Containers, including Docker: A method for bundling software and its dependencies into one package Kubernetes: A tool for deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications Orchestration: Automated configuration, coordination, and management of cloud systems, resources, and software Microservices: Architecture for building applications as a collection of services or protocols

    Abstract: Every decade since the 1960s, researchers at companies like IBM, Amazon, and many others have introduced major new frameworks and techniques to handle rising data management problems. This concise ebook explains how these new systems helped data science evolve quickly-from hierarchical and relational databases to big data and cloud computing to streaming and graph data. Computer scientist Paco Nathan shows members of your data science team how major companies created each of these data management systems not just to deal with new data types but also to take full advantage of the opportunities the data presented. Their efforts over the years have propelled an entire industry. This report covers the historical progression of data management topics including: Hierarchical databases -1960s mainframe batch systems are still used in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, and other industries. Relational databases -these enabled faster transactions, mathematical optimization, and budgeting guarantees for many businesses. Big data -this includes relatively cheap horizontal scale-out systems for collecting huge amounts of customer data. Cloud computing -large companies began managing reliable, scalable, cost-effective data centers; Amazon turned the concept into a business. Cluster schedulers -managing horizontal clusters was difficult before schedulers such as Apache Mesos appeared. Streaming data -data continuously generated by different sources requires responses in "real time"-generally milliseconds.

    Abstract: Despite deploying the latest security technologies, organizations still struggle to defend cloud-based web applications against sophisticated cyberattacks. Many companies have turned to the popular defense-in-depth (DiD) technique, but this multilayered approach has its shortcomings. So where is the industry headed next? This insightful ebook demonstrates a new approach to DiD that enables current security tools to operate in concert rather than independently. Stephen Gates, edge security evangelist and SME at Oracle Dyn, shows you how companies can establish integrated lines of defense similar to the way in which modern militaries operate on the battlefield. By the end of this book, CSOs, CISOs, security managers, and other professionals will understand how to implement the recommendations in this book today using the security technologies they already have in place. With this ebook, you'll examine: Why today's security technologies alone aren't enough to protect web applications How the existing approach to DiD for cybersecurity falls short of its goals An example of how the modern military uses integrated lines of defense that work in concert Eight lines of defense-including edge routers, DDoS defenses, and WAFs-that are best for protecting cloud-based web applications Ways to use automation and supervised machine learning to integrate your security approaches

    Abstract: Today's successful businesses are increasingly digital and technologically astute, but how do they attract and manage employees in a world where two billion people work part-time? How do they develop a workforce when automation is advancing? And how do they serve customers and attract and retain employees when competition for both is high and trust is at an all-time low? In this O'Reilly Radar report, Josh Bersin, Tim O'Reilly, Roger Magoulas, and Mike Loukides address what business leaders, tech leaders, and decision makers can expect, how they can prepare, and what they should learn to shape the future of the business. These lessons affect much more than the bottom line. This report covers big-picture trends we expect to impact the future success of all firms, including: Trust in business is changing: customers seek firms whose values reflect their own. Employees want satisfaction and meaning, not just money and security. The shift to AI and machine learning is changing almost every job. Companies are becoming networked marketplaces that build on core competencies while outsourcing the rest. Many firms offer compensation beyond pay, including alternate work relationships, flexible workplaces, and training opportunities. Embracing diversity requires solving compensation problems, creating a safe workplace, and valuing an employee's opinions.

    Abstract: The ubiquity of regular expressions must mean they offer universal utility, and, surprisingly, they do not have a steep learning curve. If you frequently find yourself manually scanning documents or parsing substrings just to identify text patterns, you might want to give them a look. Especially in data science and data engineering, they can assist in a wide spectrum of tasks, from wrangling data to qualifying and categorizing it. This report covers enough regular expression features to make them useful for a great majority of tasks you may encounter.

    Abstract: The collective significance of the themes that are explored in Slavery in the Global Diaspora of Africa bridge the Atlantic and thereby provide insights into historical debates that address the ways in which parts of Africa fitted into the modern world that emerged in the Atlantic basin. The study explores the conceptual problems of studying slavery in Africa and the broader Atlantic world from a perspective that focuses on Africa and the historical context that accounts for this influence. Paul Lovejoy focuses on the parameters of the enforced migration of enslaved Africans, including the impact on civilian populations in Africa, constraints on migration, and the importance of women and children in the movement of people who were enslaved. The prevalence of slavery in Africa and the transformations of social and political formations of societies and political structures during the era of trans-Atlantic migration inform the book's research. The analysis places Africa, specifically western Africa, at the center of historical change, not on the frontier or periphery of western Europe or the Americas, and provides a global perspective that reconsiders historical reconstruction of the Atlantic world that challenges the distortions of Eurocentrism and national histories. Slavery in the Global Diaspora of Africa will be of interest to scholars and students of colonial history, African history, Diaspora Studies, the Black Atlantic and the history of slavery

    Abstract: Many industry experts consider unsupervised learning the next frontier in artificial intelligence, one that may hold the key to general artificial intelligence. Since the majority of the world's data is unlabeled, conventional supervised learning cannot be applied. Unsupervised learning, on the other hand, can be applied to unlabeled datasets to discover meaningful patterns buried deep in the data, patterns that may be near impossible for humans to uncover. Author Ankur Patel shows you how to apply unsupervised learning using two simple, production-ready Python frameworks: Scikit-learn and TensorFlow using Keras. With code and hands-on examples, data scientists will identify difficult-to-find patterns in data and gain deeper business insight, detect anomalies, perform automatic feature engineering and selection, and generate synthetic datasets. All you need is programming and some machine learning experience to get started. Compare the strengths and weaknesses of the different machine learning approaches: supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning Set up and manage machine learning projects end-to-end Build an anomaly detection system to catch credit card fraud Clusters users into distinct and homogeneous groups Perform semisupervised learning Develop movie recommender systems using restricted Boltzmann machines Generate synthetic images using generative adversarial networks

    Abstract: Having spent an estimated $1.2 trillion in 2017 alone, industries today are investing heavily in digital transformation technologies. Cloud providers are a key part of the investment, but many companies are finding that no single provider can meet the specific needs of every business. In this article, author Maliha Balala explains how a growing number of companies are covering all the bases by engaging more than one cloud provider. By choosing a multi-cloud approach, you can mix and match technologies and services from different providers to create the best possible solution for your company. Whether you want to spread workloads and data across multiple cloud platforms, mitigate risk, or enable specific business units to choose their ideal cloud service, this article shows you how this approach can help you migrate from your old model of customer engagement to a newer, digital-based strategy.

    Abstract: Ethernet VPN (EVPN) has recently been gaining support among companies looking to solve problems in the design of data center networks. This mature technology has been a part of service provider networks for years, but data center network architects and operators have to contend with complex concepts and terminology spread across multiple standards documents to piece together the relevant model for their data center. This practical ebook cuts through the fog to explain how you can deploy this technology in the core of your data center. By guiding you through EVPN concepts and practicalities, author Dinesh Dutt (BGP in the Data Center) illustrates why this technology is the piece you need to successfully adopt VXLAN in your Clos-based network. You'll also discover why EVPN can be simpler to use in data centers than in service provider networks. Understand network virtualization overlays (NVO) and network tunneling Learn the constructs that Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) provides to support NVOs Understand how bridging works in EVPN networks, including the behavior with dual-attached hosts Examine different routing models with EVPN Inspect the most common deployment scenarios in EVPN configuration and put them to use in other situations

    Abstract: In this book, you'll find 54 hands-on descriptions that help you DO the key methods used in service design. These methods include instructions, guidelines, and tips-and-tricks for activities within research, ideation, prototyping, and facilitation. This is the print version of the method companion to the book This Is Service Design Doing (#TiSDD). It includes the same content that you can find free on the book website, tisdd.com, but nicely revisualized and presented in a professional bound format. Caveat: While methods are the building blocks of a service design process, owning a pile of bricks does not make you an architect or even a bricklayer. Success in doing service design certainly requires a mastery of these methods. However, you must also be able to combine them into a process that fits the context and needs of your organization and guide people through this new way of working. This book only contains the building blocks-the methods. It doesn't detail how to assemble them into a cohesive design process or how to plan or manage it. Neither does it describe why people should invest in service design nor explain how to bring service design to life in your organization. For all of this (and more), please read This Is Service Design Doing .

    Abstract: Agile transformation has become a big deal among enterprise organizations, even if the deal has proved difficult to close. Agile software development has long thrived among independent developers, but recently large organizations across all industries have begun agile programs-only to watch those initiatives run into obstacles and lose steam. In this concise report, author Matt LeMay discusses why agile transformations in the enterprise fail, and then examines a business-goals-first approach that can help your company move forward with agile. You'll learn best practices for taking the goals-first approach, including two methods for implementing and scaling your agile process-using top-down scaled agile frameworks, or bottom-up localized experiments. After presenting case studies from Coca Cola and Adobe, LeMay also addresses additional steps that your organization can take to "future-proof" your agile transformation efforts.

    Abstract: As a key part of the nascent fourth industrial revolution, the Internet of Things enables machine-to-machine and machine-to-person use cases on a massive scale. How do you connect and manage billions of distributed devices-in home appliances, manufacturing devices, or vehicles-and then transfer, store, and process all of the data these devices produce? That requires an efficient IoT platform. This report examines the key attributes of scalable IoT platforms, and provides criteria for evaluating various industrial platforms now available. Developers and architects will also get an overview of the IoT, including a look at the architecture of a data-driven solution, and a case study that examines the differences between a traditional power grid and an IoT-enabled smart grid. Authors Dejan Mijic, Draško Draškovic, and Ervin Varga help you evaluate four industrial IoT platforms, including two commercial products-Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT and Microsoft Azure IoT Suite-and two open source products-Mainflux and EdgeX Foundry. Each IoT platform chapter provides: An overview of the platform architecture How to set up the ecosystem Event management and system dashboards The application integration layer Security considerations Building end-to-end example

    Abstract: With more than 500 new Node.js packages arriving each day, npm is the world's largest reusable package registry and the Node ecosystem's greatest strength. But as the number of detected vulnerabilities continues to rise significantly, the packages themselves are becoming a liability. This ebook shows application developers and penetration testers practical strategies for evaluating and working with today's npm packages. Author Chetan Karande ( Securing Node Applications ) analyzes package vulnerabilities found by security researchers and the Node community, including common coding mistakes behind the most severe and frequently found problems. While the database is by no means comprehensive due to the flood of new packages, these known vulnerabilities still provide a valuable guide to help you conduct a manual code review of npm packages. You'll examine the top Node package vulnerabilities, including: Insecure access to the filesystem that leads to directory traversal and symlink attacks Pitfalls that often cause Node developers to inadvertently expose sensitive data Denial-of-service attacks that can prevent legitimate users from accessing your service Cross-site scripting (XSS), a prevalent web application security flaw and frequently occurring vulnerability in Node packages Injection vulnerabilities that enable attackers to obtain, corrupt, or destroy server contents

    Abstract: From startups to established market leaders, many companies today are taking advantage of disruptive forces to produce new products, become more efficient, or demolish barriers to entry. The web is a good example of a disruptive force, but subtler forms of disruption such as new tools or a fresh take on old ideas can also give your business a much needed boost. In this ebook, Q. McCallum and Ken Gleason take you through several disruption examples and provide a framework to help you spot a disruption opportunity in the wild. Whether it's applying an existing technology in a new way, creating a new business model or market segment, or launching a value network that invites other companies to provide resources or consume your service, this ebook will guide you through the discovery process. Look at two major disruptions from the 1990s that businesses now take for granted Explore how successful businesses such as Uber created market niches by mixing several technologies in clever ways Learn eight ways to spot disruption opportunities, including underserved markets, sources of waste, and artificial barriers to entry Dive into detailed examples of disruption today: the cloud, predictive analytics and machine learning, multi-sided markets, and self-publishing

    Abstract: Organizations big and small have started to realize just how crucial system and application reliability is to their business. They've also learned just how difficult it is to maintain that reliability while iterating at the speed demanded by the marketplace. Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is a proven approach to this challenge. SRE is a large and rich topic to discuss. Google led the way with Site Reliability Engineering , the wildly successful O'Reilly book that described Google's creation of the discipline and the implementation that's allowed them to operate at a planetary scale. Inspired by that earlier work, this book explores a very different part of the SRE space. The more than two dozen chapters in Seeking SRE bring you into some of the important conversations going on in the SRE world right now. Listen as engineers and other leaders in the field discuss: Different ways of implementing SRE and SRE principles in a wide variety of settings How SRE relates to other approaches such as DevOps Specialties on the cutting edge that will soon be commonplace in SRE Best practices and technologies that make practicing SRE easier The important but rarely explored human side of SRE David N. Blank-Edelman is the book's curator and editor.

    Abstract: Automated traffic is a major factor in the modern internet, especially for website owners. Bots, spiders, and scrapers now exceed the amount of traffic from human users, and this trend is expected to continue in the number and sophistication of bot types. With this handbook, Intechnica co-founder Andy Still provides guidelines to help public-facing sites identify and manage various types of automated traffic. Some bots are beneficial, such as automated traffic triggered by direct human action, but many of them are highly profitable ventures run by organized criminal groups. Bots can negatively impact your site and your business by: Fraudulently taking advertising revenue without displaying ads to potential customers Stealing website content for competitors to use on their own sites Publishing offensive content on your comments or forum pages Accessing your users' personal data for use elsewhere Creating fake accounts to take unfair advantage of special offers Skewing analytics that would lead you to make invalid business decisions Managing and Mitigating Bots helps you determine which traffic is non-human and requires action, and then guides you through the process of defining a bot-handling policy tailored to the type of bot traffic you identify.
