Haskell Cookbook. Build functional applications using Monads, Applicatives, and Functors

Yogesh Sajanikar

Haskell is a purely functional language that has the great ability to develop large and difficult, but easily maintainable software.Haskell Cookbook provides recipes that start by illustrating the principles of functional programming in Haskell, and then gradually build up your expertise in creating industrial-strength programs to accomplish any goal. The book covers topics such as Functors, Applicatives, Monads, and Transformers. You will learn various ways to handle state in your application and explore advanced topics such as Generalized Algebraic Data Types, higher kind types, existential types, and type families. The book will discuss the association of lenses with type classes such as Functor, Foldable, and Traversable to help you manage deep data structures.With the help of the wide selection of examples in this book, you will be able to upgrade your Haskell programming skills and develop scalable software idiomatically.

Haskell Design Patterns. Take your Haskell and functional programming skills to the next level by exploring new idioms and design patterns

Ryan Lemmer

Design patterns and idioms can widen our perspective byshowing us where to look, what to look at, and ultimatelyhow to see what we are looking at. At their best, patternsare a shorthand method of communicating better waysto code (writing less, more maintainable, and moreefficient code)This book starts with Haskell 98 and through the lens ofpatterns and idioms investigates the key advances andprogramming styles that together make modern Haskell.Your journey begins with the three pillars of Haskell.Then you'll experience the problem with Lazy I/O, togetherwith a solution. You'll also trace the hierarchy formedby Functor, Applicative, Arrow, and Monad. Next you'llexplore how Fold and Map are generalized by Foldableand Traversable, which in turn is unified in a broadercontext by functional Lenses. You'll delve more deeply intothe Type system, which will prepare you for an overviewof Generic programming. In conclusion you go to theedge of Haskell by investigating the Kind system andhow this relates to Dependently-typed programming

Haskell High Performance Programming. Write Haskell programs that are robust and fast enough to stand up to the needs of today

Samuli Thomasson

Haskell, with its power to optimize the code and its high performance, is a natural candidate for high performance programming. It is especially well suited to stacking abstractions high with a relatively low performance cost. This book addresses the challenges of writing efficient code with lazy evaluation and techniques often used to optimize the performance of Haskell programs. We open with an in-depth look at the evaluation of Haskell expressions and discuss optimization and benchmarking. You will learn to use parallelism and we'll explore the concept of streaming. We’ll demonstrate the benefits of running multithreaded and concurrent applications. Next we’ll guide you through various profiling tools that will help you identify performance issues in your program. We’ll end our journey by looking at GPGPU, Cloud and Functional Reactive Programming in Haskell. At the very end there is a catalogue of robust library recommendations with code samples.By the end of the book, you will be able to boost the performance of any app and prepare it to stand up to real-world punishment.

HBase Administration Cookbook. Master HBase configuration and administration for optimum database performance with this book and

Yifeng Jiang

As an Open Source distributed big data store, HBase scales to billions of rows, with millions of columns and sits on top of the clusters of commodity machines. If you are looking for a way to store and access a huge amount of data in real-time, then look no further than HBase.HBase Administration Cookbook provides practical examples and simple step-by-step instructions for you to administrate HBase with ease. The recipes cover a wide range of processes for managing a fully distributed, highly available HBase cluster on the cloud. Working with such a huge amount of data means that an organized and manageable process is key and this book will help you to achieve that.The recipes in this practical cookbook start from setting up a fully distributed HBase cluster and moving data into it. You will learn how to use all of the tools for day-to-day administration tasks as well as for efficiently managing and monitoring the cluster to achieve the best performance possible. Understanding the relationship between Hadoop and HBase will allow you to get the best out of HBase so the book will show you how to set up Hadoop clusters, configure Hadoop to cooperate with HBase, and tune its performance.

Hbase Essentials. A practical guide to realizing the seamless potential of storing and managing high-volume, high-velocity data quickly and painlessly with HBase

Nishant Garg

This book is intended for developers and Big Data engineers who want to know all about HBase at a hands-on level. For in-depth understanding, it would be helpful to have a bit of familiarity with HDFS and MapReduce programming concepts with no prior experience with HBase or similar technologies. This book is also for Big Data enthusiasts and database developers who have worked with other NoSQL databases and now want to explore HBase as another futuristic, scalable database solution in the Big Data space.
