Book Description

How can event streams help make your application more scalable, reliable, and maintainable? In this report, O'Reilly author Martin Kleppmann shows you how stream processing can make your data storage and processing systems more flexible and less complex. Structuring data as a stream of events isn't new, but with the advent of open source projects such as Apache Kafka and Apache Samza, stream processing is finally coming of age.

Using several case studies, Kleppmann explains how these projects can help you reorient your database architecture around streams and materialized views. The benefits of this approach include better data quality, faster queries through precomputed caches, and real-time user interfaces. Learn how to open up your data for richer analysis and make your applications more scalable and robust in the face of failures.

- Understand stream processing fundamentals and their similarities to event sourcing, CQRS, and complex event processing
- Learn how logs can make search indexes and caches easier to maintain
- Explore the integration of databases with event streams, using the new Bottled Water open source tool
- Turn your database architecture inside out by orienting it around streams and materialized views

Kafka: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition

Kafka

Every enterprise application creates data, whether it consists of log messages, metrics, user activity, or outgoing messages. Moving all this data is just as important as the data itself. With this updated edition, application architects, developers, and production engineers new to the Kafka streaming platform will learn how to handle data in motio

The Computers That Made Britain

The home computer boom of the 1980s brought with it now iconic machines such as the ZX Spectrum, BBC Micro, and Commodore 64. Those machines would inspire a generation. Written by Tim Danton. The Computers That Made Britain (300 pages, hardback) tells the story of 19 of those computers - and what happened behind the scenes. With dozens of new inter

The SysAdmin Handbook

Server

Over the past two years, Simple-Talk has published articles on a variety of SysAdmin topics, from Exchange to Virtualization, and including everything from Powershell to Unified Messaging. We have brought the best of these articles together to form The SysAdmin Handbook. With over fifty articles packed into this book, it will be an essential refere

Image Processing for Engineers

This is an image processing textbook with a difference. Instead of just a picture gallery of before-and-after images, we provide (on the accompanying website) MATLAB programs (.m files) and images (.mat files) for each of the examples. These allow the reader to experiment with various parameters, such as noise strength, and see their effect on the
