With Deno Web Development, you'll learn all about Deno's primitives, its principles, and how you can use them to build real-world applications. The book is divided into three main sections: an introduction to Deno, building an API from scratch, and testing and deploying a Deno application. The book starts by getting you up to speed with Deno's runtime and the reason why it was developed. You'll explore some of the concepts introduced by Node, why many of them transitioned into Deno, and why new features were introduced. After understanding Deno and why it was created, you will start to experiment with Deno, exploring the toolchain and writing simple scripts and CLI applications. As you progress to the second section, you will create a simple web application and then add more features to it. This application will evolve from a simple 'hello world' API to a web application connected to the database, with users, authentication, and a JavaScript client. In the third section, the book will take you through topics such as dependency management, configuration and testing, finishing with an application deployed in a cloud environment. By the end of this web development book, you will become comfortable with using Deno to create, maintain, and deploy secure and reliable web applications. What you will learn Understand why you should use Deno Get to grips with tooling and the Deno ecosystem Build Deno web applications using existing Node.js knowledge and the newest ECMA Script 6 features Explore the standard library and the benefits of Deno's security model Discover common practices and web frameworks to build a REST API in Deno Structure a web application using common architecture practices Test and deploy a Deno application in the cloud using Docker Who this book is for This book is for developers who want to leverage their JavaScript and TypeScript skills in a secure, simple, and modern runtime, using Deno for web app development.

    Abstract: A guide to successfully operating in a lean-agile organization for solutions architects and enterprise architects Key Features Develop the right combination of processes and technical excellence to address architectural challenges Explore a range of architectural techniques to modernize legacy systems Discover how to design and continuously improve well-architected sustainable software Book Description Many organizations have embraced Agile methodologies to transform their ability to rapidly respond to constantly changing customer demands. However, in this melee, many enterprises often neglect to invest in architects by presuming architecture is not an intrinsic element of Agile software development. Since the role of an architect is not pre-defined in Agile, many organizations struggle to position architects, often resulting in friction with other roles or a failure to provide a clear learning path for architects to be productive.

Learn how to use neurons, layers, and activation functions and structure an artificial neural network. Tune TPOT models to ensure optimum performance on previously unseen data. Book Description The automation of machine learning tasks allows developers more time to focus on the usability and reactivity of the software powered by machine learning models. TPOT is a Python automated machine learning tool used for optimizing machine learning pipelines using genetic programming. Automating machine learning with TPOT enables individuals and companies to develop production-ready machine learning models cheaper and faster than with traditional methods. With this practical guide to AutoML, developers working with Python on machine learning tasks will be able to put their knowledge to work and become productive quickly. You'll adopt a hands-on approach to learning the implementation of AutoML and associated methodologies. Complete with step-by-step explanations of essential concepts, practical examples, and self-assessment questions, this book will show you how to build automated classification and regression models and compare their performance to custom-built models. As you advance, you'll also develop state-of-the-art models using only a couple of lines of code and see how those models outperform all of your previous models on the same datasets. By the end of this book, you'll have gained the confidence to implement AutoML techniques in your organization on a production level. What you will learn Get to grips with building automated machine learning models Build classification and regression models with impressive accuracy in a short time Develop neural network classifiers with AutoML techniques Compare AutoML models with traditional, manually developed models on the same datasets Create robust, production-ready models Evaluate automated classification models based on metrics such as accuracy, recall, precision, and f1-score Get hands-on with deployment using Flask-RESTful on localhost Who this book is for Data scientists, data analysts, and software developers who are new to machine learning and want to use it in their applications will find this book useful. This book is also for business users looking to automate business tasks with machine learni...
