Spec od hurtowni danych? Zawsze będzie pilnie potrzebny! Jak stworzyć strukturę hurtowni danych i dokonać ich integracji? Jak przeprowadzić analizę danych z wykorzystaniem rozszerzenia MDX SQL? Do czego potrzebne jest raportowanie? Idea hurtowni danych ściśle wiąże się z ich kolosalnymi ilościami, gromadzonymi podczas tysięcy różnych sytuacji — przy dowolnej transakcji, w urzędzie, na lotnisku, w internecie… Nawet nasze połączenia telefoniczne są przechowywane przez operatora. Te wszystkie dane trzeba gdzieś pomieścić, sensownie posegregować i zapewnić sobie możliwość sięgnięcia do wybranego ich zakresu bez długotrwałych poszukiwań. Taką możliwość dają właśnie hurtownie danych — przemyślane, bardzo pojemne bazy, oferujące zarówno integrację wprowadzanych danych, jak i znakomite mechanizmy ich przeszukiwania. Jeśli chcesz poszerzyć swoją wiedzę na temat tworzenia i przeglądania zawartości hurtowni danych, trafiłeś pod właściwy adres! Książka "Hurtownie danych. Od przetwarzania analitycznego do raportowania" zawiera materiał przeznaczony nie tylko dla studentów wydziałów informatycznych, ale także dla pasjonatów tej tematyki oraz specjalistów zainteresowanych poszerzeniem wiedzy.

Most organizations are now either moving to the cloud through modernization or building their apps in the cloud. Hybrid cloud is one of the best approaches for cloud migration and the modernization journey for any enterprise. This is why, along with coding skills, developers need to know the big picture of cloud footprint and be aware of the integration models between apps in a hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure. This book represents an overview of your end-to-end journey to the cloud. To be future agnostic, the journey starts with a hybrid cloud.You'll gain an overall understanding of how to approach migration to the cloud using hybrid cloud technologies from IBM and Red Hat. Next, you’ll be able to explore the challenges, requirements (both functional and non-functional), and the process of app modernization for enterprises by analyzing various use cases. The book then provides you with insights into the different reference solutions for app modernization on the cloud, which will help you to learn how to design and implement patterns and best practices in your job.By the end of this book, you’ll be able to successfully modernize applications and cloud infrastructure in hyperscaler public clouds such as IBM and hybrid clouds using Red Hat technologies as well as develop secure applications for cloud environments.

Umieralność i prawidłowości z nią związane są przedmiotem dociekań od wielu stuleci. Za ojca metodologii tablic wymieralności uznaje się J. Graunta, który w roku 1662 opublikował pracę „Natural and Political Observations Made upon the Bills of Mortality”. Kontynuatorem badań Graunta był angielski astronom E. Halley. Autorem współczesnej metodologii budowy tablic wymieralności jest C. L. Chiang. Gwałtowny rozwój teorii i zastosowań modeli umieralności obserwujemy szczególnie w ostatnich czterech dekadach, czego dowodem jest też niniejsza książka. Przedstawione są w niej najnowsze modele umieralności, które umożliwiają prognozowanie procesu wymierania populacji w perspektywie średnio- i długookresowej. Autorzy omawiają kolejne modyfikacje modelu Lee-Cartera, wykorzystując teorię równań różniczkowych, algebry liczb rozmytych oraz algebry liczb zespolonych. Zastosowanie tych struktur pozwala na modelowanie umieralności, a następnie na wskazanie własności prognostycznych poszczególnych modeli. W sytuacji starzenia się społeczeństw w krajach rozwiniętych proponowane modele mogą znaleźć zastosowanie m.in. w planach emerytalnych i ubezpieczeniach na życie.
