    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: 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: If your organization is planning a move to the cloud this year, choosing a provider from among hundreds available can be the most difficult part. How do you narrow down the field? In this article, Jesse Anderson, managing director of the Big Data Institute, provides guidelines to help you find a cloud provider that meets your company's specific needs. Understanding your use case is key. Providers employ different technologies, and if your organization is tackling big data problems at scale, those differences can be critical. There are also logistical concerns: How difficult will it be to train your staff on the provider's technologies? Who in your company will be responsible for the many moving parts? How do you deal with vendor lock-in? With the guidelines in this article, you'll learn how to distinguish among the capabilities of various cloud providers and then fine-tune your decision process by homing in on questions related to your particular use case.

    Abstract: Positions in product management are in high demand today for job seekers and companies alike, and yet there is much confusion in the market about what, exactly, this role is and does. Many conflate product management with project management, a much more familiar role. This ebook explains the distinction between product and project management for executives and hiring managers, including how these two roles often overlap and complement one another. Bruce McCarthy, CEO of UpUp Labs and President of the Boston Product Management Association, explains that while project managers are responsible for marshalling resources to deliver products on time and on budget, product managers are responsible for the entire lifecycle, from initial research to final product-including market analysis after the product is released. This ebook examines the responsibilities, skills, and expertise that define and differentiate product management and project management, and provides guidelines to help you determine which position best fits your needs.

    Abstract: Docker's catchphrase for its containers is compelling: "Build, Ship and Run Any App, Anywhere." Go already has some of those attributes built in, including cross-compilation and the production of single executable files without dependencies. Are there any reasons, then, for Go programmers to use containers to deploy code? In this lesson, veteran developer Liz Rice outlines several advantages that containers can provide for Go programmers-such as how they help you restrict the resources that your code can access, and how you can use them to run and test your software locally with other components. You'll then look at some cases where containers wouldn't add any benefit at all. As always, it's important to use the right tool for the job, and containers can offer advantages for Go programmers in the right circumstances. This lesson provides some helpful guidelines.

    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: 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: Use of redundant servers has long been a solution for meeting sudden spikes in demand, machine failures, and outages. Cloud services greatly reduce the cost and hassle of provisioning redundant equipment and load balancers and give you the ability to deal with separate network, application, and client-side loads. But today there are many options to consider, and you have to determine which cloud service (or services) will meet your company's unique needs. With this ebook, author Derek DeJonghe from RightBrain Networks delivers a practical guide to load balancing services in the cloud. In this dynamic environment, where machines are frequently provisioned and decommissioned to meet user demand, you need a load balancer that can intelligently distribute traffic. This ebook walks you through the several options, including the use of the NGINX software load balancer. Learn how load balancing capabilities have evolved in just the past few years Explore the features, portability, and scaling capacity of the NGINX software load balancer Learn solutions for automating load balancing over autoscaling applications Understand the advantages of using AWS's Network Load Balancer with NGINX Learn ways to monitor the AWS Network Load Balancer as well as NGINX and NGINX Plus deployments Use common practices for scaling and securing your application through infrastructure management practices and the NGINX Controller
