Reactive Patterns with RxJS and Angular Signals. Elevate your Angular 18 applications with RxJS Observables, subjects, operators, and Angular Signals - Second Edition

Lamis Chebbi, Aristeidis Bampakos

RxJS is a powerful reactive extension for JavaScript, specializing in asynchronous and event-driven programming, but you don’t find many books on using RxJS in Angular applications. Written by an industry expert with over a decade of experience, this book helps you navigate reactive patterns, efficient data management, and the streamlined implementation of common features with minimal code.This second edition aligns with the latest version of Angular, introducing new reactive patterns based on Angular Signals, which play a pivotal role in enabling fine-grained reactivity within Angular and enhancing change detection and user interface rendering. Throughout the book, you’ll construct a complete application that incorporates the latest Angular features, such as standalone components, new built-in control flow, deferrable views, and more. You’ll also focus on cultivating skills to handle data reactively, thus improving the application's overall quality, user experience, and developer productivity. The book covers best practices for testing asynchronous streams and optimizing app performance.By the end of this RxJS and Angular book, you’ll not only be able to develop Angular applications by implementing reactive patterns, but also grasp all the best practices, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of RxJS within the Angular framework.

Practical Deep Learning at Scale with MLflow. Bridge the gap between offline experimentation and online production

Yong Liu, Dr. Matei Zaharia

The book starts with an overview of the deep learning (DL) life cycle and the emerging Machine Learning Ops (MLOps) field, providing a clear picture of the four pillars of deep learning: data, model, code, and explainability and the role of MLflow in these areas.From there onward, it guides you step by step in understanding the concept of MLflow experiments and usage patterns, using MLflow as a unified framework to track DL data, code and pipelines, models, parameters, and metrics at scale. You’ll also tackle running DL pipelines in a distributed execution environment with reproducibility and provenance tracking, and tuning DL models through hyperparameter optimization (HPO) with Ray Tune, Optuna, and HyperBand. As you progress, you’ll learn how to build a multi-step DL inference pipeline with preprocessing and postprocessing steps, deploy a DL inference pipeline for production using Ray Serve and AWS SageMaker, and finally create a DL explanation as a service (EaaS) using the popular Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) toolbox.By the end of this book, you’ll have built the foundation and gained the hands-on experience you need to develop a DL pipeline solution from initial offline experimentation to final deployment and production, all within a reproducible and open source framework.

Getting Started with Lazarus IDE. Get to grips with the basics of programming, debugging, creating, and documenting projects with the Lazarus IDE

Roderick Person

A good integrated development environment can be the key to creating and delivering software on time and budget. Having a programming language and a development environment that runs on multiple platforms greatly eases and lessens the time taken on creating cross-platform applications. An IDE that is compatible with a legacy code base allows developers to leverage existing libraries in future applications.Getting Started with Lazarus is a practical, hands-on guide that provides you with a number of clear step-by-step exercises, which will help you take advantage of the power of the Lazarus IDE and Free Pascal to develop software that can be created for cross-platform use.Getting started with Lazarus discusses developing software with the open source cross platform integrated development environment and the Free Pascal language.We'll learn how to install Lazarus on various platforms such as Linux and Windows, as well as how to create new projects and convert existing Delphi projects to Lazarus projects by learning the differences between Delphi's Pascal syntax and Free Pascal's Object Pascal using a real world example project.We'll learn how to create custom components for use in Lazarus. We'll also learn the basics of documenting a Lazarus project using the Lazarus Documentation Editor.Finally we will learn that the IDE can be rebuilt using a different widget type, specifically GTK 2.Teach yourself the basics of programming with Lazarus and the open source IDE for the Free Pascal language.

Learning VMware vSphere. Click here to enter text

Rebecca Fitzhugh, Abhilash G B

Computer virtualization is a method to enable the running of multiple application workloads on a machine to achieve efficient utilization and reduce the number of physical machines in a data center. This has now become the foundation of many modern day data centers. What began as a technology to virtualize x86 architecture has now grown beyond the limits of a server’s hardware and into the realm of storage and network virtualization. VMware is currently the market leader in developing data center virtualization solutions. This book goes into the details of designing and implementing VMware solutions that form the foundation of a VMware infrastructure.The book begins by introducing you to the concepts of server virtualization followed by the architecture of VMware’s hypervisor – ESXi and then by its installation and configuration. You then learn what is required to manage a vSphere environment and configure advanced management capabilities of vCenter. Next you are taken through topics on vSphere Networking, Storage, ESXi Clustering, Resource Management and Virtual Machine Management. You will then be introduced to SSL Certificate Management and its use in a vSphere environment. Finally, you will learn about the lifecycle management of a vSphere environment by effectively monitoring, patching and upgrading vSphere components using Update Manager. By the end of the book, you will know how to use VMware’s vSphere suite of components to lay the foundation of a modern day virtual infrastructure.
