    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.

    Abstract: Rust is a new systems programming language that combines the performance and low-level control of C and C++ with memory safety and thread safety. Rust's modern, flexible types ensure your program is free of null pointer dereferences, double frees, dangling pointers, and similar bugs, all at compile time, without runtime overhead. In multi-threaded code, Rust catches data races at compile time, making concurrency much easier to use. Written by two experienced systems programmers, this book explains how Rust manages to bridge the gap between performance and safety, and how you can take advantage of it. Topics include: How Rust represents values in memory (with diagrams) Complete explanations of ownership, moves, borrows, and lifetimes Cargo, rustdoc, unit tests, and how to publish your code on crates.io, Rust's public package repository High-level features like generic code, closures, collections, and iterators that make Rust productive and flexible Concurrency in Rust: threads, mutexes, channels, and atomics, all much safer to use than in C or C++ Unsafe code, and how to preserve the integrity of ordinary code that uses it Extended examples illustrating how pieces of the language fit together

    Abstract: Many forces affect software today: larger datasets, geographical disparities, complex company structures, and the growing need to be fast and nimble in the face of change. Proven approaches such as service-oriented and event-driven architectures are joined by newer techniques such as microservices, reactive architectures, DevOps, and stream processing. Many of these patterns are successful by themselves, but as this practical ebook demonstrates, they provide a more holistic and compelling approach when applied together. Author Ben Stopford explains how service-based architectures and stream processing tools such as Apache Kafka can help you build business-critical systems. You'll learn how to apply patterns including Event Sourcing and CQRS, and how to build multi-team systems with microservices and SOA using patterns such as "inside out databases" and "event streams as a source of truth." These approaches provide a unique foundation for how these large, autonomous service ecosystems can communicate and share data. Learn why streaming beats request-response based architectures in complex, contemporary use cases Understand why replayable logs such as Kafka provide a backbone for both service communication and shared datasets Explore how event collaboration and event sourcing patterns increase safety and recoverability with functional, event-driven approaches Build service ecosystems that blend event-driven and request-driven interfaces using a replayable log and Kafka's Streams API Scale beyond individual teams into larger, department- and company-sized architectures, using event streams as a source of truth

    Abstract: As this brief article explains, AI broadly defines many systems designed to answer questions and solve problems. Consider Amazon's recommendation system. Or the GPS navigation system that talks to you. Like plumbing or electricity, we'll soon take AI for granted as it steadily does more to help us manage our lives. In this article, O'Reilly's Mike Loukides and Ben Lorica offer a definition of AI by discussing the meaning of intelligence, and exploring whether modern AI applications operate as assistants or actors.

    Abstract: Python and R are two of the mainstream languages in data science. Fundamentally, Python is a language for programmers, whereas R is a language for statisticians. In a data science context, there is a significant degree of overlap when it comes to the capabilities of each language in the fields of regression analysis and machine learning. Your choice of language will depend highly on the environment in which you are operating. In a production environment, Python integrates with other languages much more seamlessly and is therefore the modus operandi in this context. However, R is much more common in research environments due to its more extensive selection of libraries for statistical analysis.

    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: 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: Why have stream-oriented data systems become so popular, when batch-oriented systems have served big data needs for many years? In the updated edition of this report, Dean Wampler examines the rise of streaming systems for handling time-sensitive problems-such as detecting fraudulent financial activity as it happens. You'll explore the characteristics of fast data architectures, along with several open source tools for implementing them.

    Abstract: There are many benefits to becoming a data-driven organization, including the ability to accelerate and improve business decision accuracy through the real-time processing of transactions, social media streams, and IoT data. But those benefits require significant changes to your infrastructure. You need flexible architectures that can copy data to analytics platforms at near-zero latency while maintaining 100% production uptime. Fortunately, a solution already exists. This ebook demonstrates how change data capture (CDC) can meet the scalability, efficiency, real-time, and zero-impact requirements of modern data architectures. Kevin Petrie, Itamar Ankorion, and Dan Potter-technology marketing leaders at Attunity-explain how CDC enables faster and more accurate decisions based on current data and reduces or eliminates full reloads that disrupt production and efficiency. The book examines: How CDC evolved from a niche feature of database replication software to a critical data architecture building block Architectures where data workflow and analysis take place, and their integration points with CDC How CDC identifies and captures source data updates to assist high-speed replication to one or more targets Case studies on cloud-based streaming and streaming to a data lake and related architectures Guiding principles for effectively implementing CDC in cloud, data lake, and streaming environments The Attunity Replicate platform for efficiently loading data across all major database, data warehouse, cloud, streaming, and Hadoop platforms

    Abstract: Feature engineering is a crucial step in the machine-learning pipeline, yet this topic is rarely examined on its own. With this practical book, you'll learn techniques for extracting and transforming features-the numeric representations of raw data-into formats for machine-learning models. Each chapter guides you through a single data problem, such as how to represent text or image data. Together, these examples illustrate the main principles of feature engineering. Rather than simply teach these principles, authors Alice Zheng and Amanda Casari focus on practical application with exercises throughout the book. The closing chapter brings everything together by tackling a real-world, structured dataset with several feature-engineering techniques. Python packages including numpy, Pandas, Scikit-learn, and Matplotlib are used in code examples. You'll examine: Feature engineering for numeric data: filtering, binning, scaling, log transforms, and power transforms Natural text techniques: bag-of-words, n-grams, and phrase detection Frequency-based filtering and feature scaling for eliminating uninformative features Encoding techniques of categorical variables, including feature hashing and bin-counting Model-based feature engineering with principal component analysis The concept of model stacking, using k-means as a featurization technique Image feature extraction with manual and deep-learning techniques

    Abstract: Most organizations realize that their future depends on the ability to quickly adapt to constant changes brought on by variable and complex environments. It's become increasingly clear that the core source behind these innovative solutions is data. Polyglot persistence refers to systems that provide many different types of data storage technologies to deal with this vast variability of data. Applications that need to access data from more than one store have to navigate an array of databases in a complex-and ultimately unsustainable-maze. One solution to this problem is readily available. In this ebook, consultant Joel Ruisi explains how a multi-model database enables you to take advantage of many different types of data models (and multiple schemas) in a single backend. With a multi-model database, companies can easily centralize, manage, and search all the data the IT system collects. The result is data agility : the ability to adapt to changing environments and serve users what they need when they need it. Through several detailed use cases, this ebook explains how multi-model databases enable you to: Store and manage multiple heterogeneous data sources Consolidate your data by bringing everything in "as is" Invisibly extend model features from one model to another Take a hybrid approach to analytical and operational data Enhance user search experience, including big data search Conduct queries across data models Offer SQL without relational constraints

    Abstract: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have existed for almost as long as the commercial web itself, and they remain one of the most effective ways to disrupt online services. But, since many of these attacks go undisclosed, industry collaboration on ways to combat them has been slow to emerge. This ebook provides engineers and IT managers with techniques for detecting and mitigating ongoing and potential DDoS events. Authors Rich Groves and Eric Chou explain how DDoS can disrupt services by flooding your network with traffic from many different sources, often by using a botnet. You'll learn about the people behind these attacks and their motivations-such as criminals seeking financial gain, thrill and status seekers, and angry and disgruntled users-and ways that you can thwart them. The techniques in this ebook enable small to mid-sized organizations to implement DDoS prevention measures on a budget-before the size of your infrastructure requires the services of a commercial DDoS vendor. Get an overview of DDoS, including common attacks, botnet-driven attacks, and those that take advantage of IoT devices Explore the pros and cons of current DDoS detection methods and mechanisms Study the approach to DDoS mitigation at the network and application level, including ways to combat SYN Flood and Classic Flood attacks Evaluate cloud-based DDoS detection and mitigation vendors to determine the best fit for your organization Learn how to leverage community-based systems to construct a DDoS-focused Threat Intelligence system

    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: From the moment your organization starts collecting data, it's crucial to make key decisions about governance. What data should you gather? How do you ensure it's accurate and current? Where do you store it, and for how long? Today, many policies for gathering and sharing data are determined in business suites, rather than by the nature of the data itself. In order to meet strategic business requirements, you must understand and define the rules that manage your organization's data assets. In this report, you'll examine the many aspects of data-driven governance, particularly how this approach makes automation, enforcement, and security tasks easier. Author Federico Castanedo of Vodafone Group describes the practices and frameworks for regulatory compliance, including technology that can marry your policies to data you collect and provide fine-grained access controls. Many businesses collect large volumes of structured, unstructured, geospatial, and other data types that often require NoSQL databases alongside relational platforms. This detailed report explores how multi-model databases support a wide range of data models against a single integrated backend, enabling your organization to easily define data-driven governance policies at scale-and ultimately to help you reduce compliance costs. Discover a new approach that establishes governance at the data level versus the system level in order to reduce risk, facilitate operational decisions, and improve integrity.
