Asynchronous programming is one of the most effective but often misunderstood techniques for building fast, scalable, and responsive systems in Python. While it can significantly improve performance, efficiency, and sustainability, using async without a clear understanding of its trade-offs can lead to fragile designs and hard-to-debug issues.This book offers a structured approach to applying asynchronous programming in Python. It begins with a conceptual framework to help you distinguish between synchronous and asynchronous execution models, and shows how async relates to other concurrency strategies such as multithreading and multiprocessing. From there, you will explore the core tools available for building async applications in Python.You will also learn how to measure the impact of async programming in practical scenarios, profile and debug asynchronous code, and evaluate performance improvements using real-world metrics. The final chapters focus on applying async techniques to common cloud-based systems, such as web frameworks, database interactions, and data-pipelines tools.Designed for developers looking to apply async programming with confidence, this book blends real-world examples with core concepts to help you write efficient, maintainable Python code.

As hardware advancements continue to accelerate, bringing greater memory capacity and more CPU cores, software must evolve to adapt to efficiently use all available resources and reduce idle CPU cycles. In this book, two seasoned software engineers with about five decades of combined experience will teach you how to implement concurrent and asynchronous solutions in C++.You’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of parallel programming paradigms—covering concurrent, asynchronous, parallel, multithreading, reactive, and event-driven programming, as well as dataflows—and see how threads, processes, and services are related. Moving into the heart of concurrency, the authors will guide you in creating and managing threads and exploring C++’s thread-safety mechanisms, including mutual exclusion, atomic operations, semaphores, condition variables, latches, and barriers. With this solid foundation, you’ll focus on pure asynchronous programming, discovering futures, promises, the async function, and coroutines. The book takes you step by step through using Boost.Asio and Boost.Cobalt to develop network and low-level I/O solutions, proven performance and optimization techniques, and testing and debugging asynchronous software.By the end of this C++ book, you’ll be able to implement high-performance software using modern asynchronous C++ techniques.

By szybciej, sprawniej i skuteczniej zarządzać projektami Znalezienie odpowiedzi na zaprzątające umysł pytania z zakresu automatyzacji zwykle wiąże się ze spędzeniem długich godzin na wertowaniu niespójnej dokumentacji lub przeszukiwaniu forum Atlassian Community, gdzie swoimi problemami (a także autorskimi pomysłami na ich rozwiązanie) dzielą się inni użytkownicy Jiry. To jednak często bezproduktywne działanie, a jedynym skutecznym ― albo i nieskutecznym ― sposobem, by pokonać przeszkodę, jest metoda prób i błędów. W szczególności dotyczy to klas, metod i interfejsów, o których możemy jedynie powiedzieć, że istnieją i przyjmują określone typy parametrów. Książka Jakuba Kalinowskiego ma w zamyśle oszczędzić czytelnikom żmudnego procesu pozyskiwania wiedzy i dać wskazówki, jak rozwiązać konkretne problemy, z którymi mogą się oni zetknąć podczas pracy z Atlassian Jira Server. Znalazło się tu omówienie takich kwestii jak custom fields, workflows, integracje z API, funkcjonalności dostarczane przez pluginy, a także tego, co niesłusznie jest uznawane za terra incognita, czyli tworzenia własnych pluginów. Autor uzupełnił treść o kilka zagadnień związanych z integracją Jiry i Confluence, jak również z bazami Insight - Asset Management, ponieważ obie aplikacje często są obecne w projektach biznesowych, a ich automatyzacja zazwyczaj przysparza wielu problemów. To książka adresowana przede wszystkim do czytelników, którzy mają już doświadczenie w zarządzaniu projektami i instancjami Jira, jednak do tej pory nie zdecydowali się na pisanie skryptów automatyzujących.
