Download or read book Speed Data and Ecosystems written by Jan Bosch and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-01-06 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As software R&D investment increases, the benefits from short feedback cycles using technologies such as continuous deployment, experimentation-based development, and multidisciplinary teams require a fundamentally different strategy and process. This book will cover the three overall challenges that companies are grappling with: speed, data and ecosystems. Speed deals with shortening the cycle time in R&D. Data deals with increasing the use of and benefit from the massive amounts of data that companies collect. Ecosystems address the transition of companies from being internally focused to being ecosystem oriented by analyzing what the company is uniquely good at and where it adds value.

The term data analytics is often used interchangeably with intelligence, statistics, reasoning, data mining, knowledge discovery, and others. The goal of this book is to introduce some of the definitions, methods, tools, frameworks, and solutions for big data processing, starting from the process of information extraction and knowledge representation, via knowledge processing and analytics to visualization, sense-making, and practical applications. Each chapter in this book addresses some pertinent aspect of the data processing chain, with a specific focus on understanding Enterprise Knowledge Graphs, Semantic Big Data Architectures, and Smart Data Analytics solutions. This book is addressed to graduate students from technical disciplines, to professional audiences following continuous education short courses, and to researchers from diverse areas following self-study courses.

Download or read book Designing and Building Solid Microservice Ecosystems written by Guillermo Leo Wrba and published by Guillermo Leo Wrba. This book was released on 2023-05-12 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's not new to us that microservices are changing the way we conceive digital transformation, as organizations embrace digital transformation. Every day, more and more companies are betting on microservice adoption, and there is a strong reason for this: business needs to evolve and change at a fast pace, in order to adapt itself to satisfy a demanding 2.0 digital customer's experience in terms of overall service quality. Ensuring that such a change occurs seamlessly and progressively is one of the goals for microservices, and designing and building a solid microservice architecture is the way to guarantee that this happens from inception, by observing principles, best practices, design patterns, and reference models. This book provides a comprehensive walkthrough across the different concepts, frameworks, methodologies, and architecture building blocks that make up a microservice ecosystem and constitute a reference architecture from which you can get to multiple sub-architectures and implementations. Being an architect, you'll learn how to better design microservice-led and event-centric architectures in the right way from the early beginning, by showcasing learned lessons, best-practices do's, and don'ts. If you are starting your architecture career, it's the right place to get introduced to concepts and methodologies that you will then grow over time, as you acquire more experience. If you are a developer, but willing to jump into the exciting architecture world, this can also be good reading, however, be warned that some basic architectural understandings and concepts need to be first incorporated before walking through the advanced concepts presented throughout this book. This book requires you to have some minimal background around Docker and Microservices to better understand the more advanced concepts that are being explained.
