Max Brand
A power more than human, a will to absolute evil such was he. All who had tried to save her from him perished... Must her true love also die? Max Brand, the pen name of Frederick Faust, was an incredibly proficient author who wrote many books, stories, and even poetry. Brand is generally regarded as the author of superior Westerns like his Destry Rides Again, but Brand also wrote the Dr. Kildare series, numerous detective stories and fantastic novels as well. His Westerns were always different, with complex plots and characters, and uncertain endings but his fantastic novels rank among the best stories he ever wrote. Devil Ritter is a tale of horror that demands your attention!
William Le Queux
Let me gaze down the vista of the tristful past. Ah! there are things that cannot be uttered; there are scenes that still entrance me, and incidents so unexpected and terrible that they cause me even now to hold my breath in horror. The prologue of this extraordinary drama of London life was enacted three years ago; its astounding dénouement occurred quite recently.

Po trzech latach nieobecności Charlie Devine wraca do Silverstones jako bohater i patriota. Dla mieszkańców to powód do dumy. Dla niego - szansa, by odzyskać dawną miłość. Maxine nauczyła się żyć bez niego. Gniew zastąpił uczucia, a przeszłość przestała mieć nad nią władzę. Gdy Charlie wraca, emocje odżywają - ale tym razem Max potrafi je kontrolować. Może zaoferować mu tylko jedno: przyjaźń. Czy spotkanie dawnych kochanków obudzi to, co miało już nie wrócić? I czy przyjaźń wystarczy, gdy uczucia znów zaczną wymykać się spod kontroli?

This book helps you to understand the fundamentals needed to get started with DevOps, and prepares you to start deploying technical tools confidently.You will start by learning the key steps for implementing successful DevOps transformations. The book will help you to understand how aspects of culture, people, and process are all connected, and that without any one of these elements DevOps is unlikely to be successful. As you make progress, you will discover how to measure and quantify the success of DevOps in your organization, along with exploring the pros and cons of the main tooling involved in DevOps. In the concluding chapters, you will learn about the latest trends in DevOps and find out how the tooling changes when you work with these specialties.By the end of this DevOps book, you will have gained a clear understanding of the connection between culture, people, and processes within DevOps, and learned why all three are critically important.
DevOps Bootcamp. The fastest way to learn DevOps
Mitesh Soni
DevOps Bootcamp delivers practical learning modules in manageable chunks. Each chunk is delivered in a day, and each day is a productive one. Each day builds your competency in DevOps. You will be able to take the task you learn every day and apply it to cultivate the DevOps culture.Each chapter presents core concepts and key takeaways about a topic in DevOps and provides a series of hands-on exercises. You will not only learn the importance of basic concepts or practices of DevOps but also how to use different tools to automate application lifecycle management. We will start off by building the foundation of the DevOps concepts. On day two, we will perform Continuous Integration using Jenkins and VSTS both by configuring Maven-based JEE Web Application?. We will also integrate Jenkins and Sonar qube for Static Code Analysis. Further, on day three, we will focus on Docker containers where we will install and configure Docker and also create a Tomcat Container to deploy our Java based web application. On day four, we will create and configure the environment for application deployment in AWS and Microsoft Azure Cloud for which we will use Infrastructure as a Service and Open Source Configuration Management tool Chef. For day five, our focus would be on Continuous Delivery. We will automate application deployment in Docker container using Jenkins Plugin, AWS EC2 using Script, AWS Elastic Beanstalk using Jenkins Plugin, Microsoft Azure VM using script, and Microsoft Azure App Services Using Jenkins. We will also configure Continuous Delivery using VSTS. We will then learn the concept of Automated Testing on day six using Apache JMeter and URL-based tests in VSTS. Further, on day seven, we will explore various ways to automate application lifecycle management using orchestration. We will see how Pipeline can be created in Jenkins and VSTS, so the moment Continuous? Integration is completed successfully, Continuous Delivery will start and application will be deployed. On the final day, our focus would be on Security access to Jenkins and Monitoring of CI resources, and cloud-based resources in AWS and Microsoft Azure Platform as a Service.
