Abstract

This book is a concise guide to getting started with Hadoop and getting the most out of your Hadoop clusters. My early experiences with Hadoop were wonderful and stressful. While Hadoop supplied the tools to scale applications, it lacked documentation on how to use the framework effectively. This book provides that information. It enables you to rapidly and pa- lessly get up to speed with Hadoop. This is the book I wish was available to me when I started using Hadoop. Who This Book Is For This book has three primary audiences: developers who are relatively new to Hadoop or MapReduce and must scale their applications using Hadoop; system administrators who must deploy and manage the Hadoop clusters; and application designers looking for a detailed understanding of what Hadoop will do for them. Hadoop experts will learn some new details and gain insights to add to their expertise. How This Book Is Structured This book provides step-by-step instructions and examples that will take you from just beg- ning to use Hadoop to running complex applications on large clusters of machines. Here's a brief rundown of the book's contents: Chapter 1, Getting Started with Hadoop Core: This chapter introduces Hadoop Core and MapReduce applications. It then walks you through getting the software, installing it on your computer, and running the basic examples.

Abstract

The best way to improve what you do is to find someone who will do it for you better than you could have done yourself. I've seen this principle in action over and over again. For example, it was fine designing the NetBeans IDE and NetBeans Platform on my own. Now, however, it is much better, since there are far more talented developers designing the various individual parts together. Similarly, I was OK writing documentation for the NetBeans Platform, but it is much better to have a group of enthusiastic people who produce tons of interesting tutorials and blogs on topics that I would never have thought up myself. Along the same lines, it was entertaining to contribute to a book about the NetBeans Platform. However, it is an order of magnitude better to see this one by Heiko! It is richer and more interesting. Plus, it covers topics that I never dreamed of covering myself. My first encounter with this book dates back to 2007 when Heiko finished his German version. I was asked to review the book's content. However, as my German reading abilities are close to zero, my goal was more to read the sample Java code and ensure that correct patterns were used and described. It quickly became easy to see that everything was more than OK. Not only that, I could immediately see that the topics were extraordinary and that they brought new ideas into the NetBeans Platform world.

Abstract

Microsoft Silverlight 2 is a new development platform designed to make the development of rich Internet applications (RIAs) far easier than has previously been possible. Pro Silverlight for the Enterprise addresses the question of how you can bring Silverlight 2 to your company to provide rich Internet experiences that will interface cleanly with your existing application architecture. The book begins with a clear discussion of why Silverlight is such a good choice for developing RIAs and the implications that this has for your development decisions. The options available will be demonstrated by constructing a simple web-based training portal for a fictional enterprise, which will be extended and altered to demonstrate the techniques and methods that you have available to you. This includes accessing data using WCF and LINQ, and considering how best to deploy your finished Silverlight application when it is complete. The book also discusses the future of Silverlight for mobile and how to plan for its release. This book is unique in that it focuses on how Silverlight can be applied in today's business environment rather than simply delving into the product's syntax and grammar in isolation. Silverlight is discussed in context with consideration given to security, scalability, and deployment. As such this book makes an excellent addition to any Silverlight library and extends your knowledge into practical areas that are rarely discussed.

Abstract

It was a dark autumn night when private investigator AJ was sitting in his office, looking f- ward to the next day's bottle of bourbon. He wasn't much looking forward to anything; rather, it would be more correct to say he hated his life a little bit less when he got a few shots of bo- bon. Today's bottle was empty, and reality had started to crawl up his spine. You may very well wonder what this has to do with SharePoint. The answer is absolutely nothing! However, it has something to do with what you are about to read. You are about to embark on a journey into the deepest secrets of SharePoint, a journey that will not only teach you about the architecture and user experience of SharePoint but also take you along a journey of exploration and of building an empire. The first part of this book will deal with basics what you need in order to get the most out of the remaining parts of the book. The second part will deal with exploration. Think of it as a guided tour through Share- Point Land where I will explain and show you the sights to see. Beware, though, because there will be dangers aplenty. In the third part of this book, you will start building an empire that will stand the test of time. You will construct your own SharePoint solution and put some of your newly acquired knowledge into practical use.

The investor wants to understand the assumptions, structure, and relationships within the modeling of a startup. If the investor is satiated, the entrepreneur has successfully demonstrated a complete understanding of the business side of the enterprise. Pro Excel Financial Modeling provides the keys necessary to learn this thinking and to build the models that will illustrate it.

Abstract

Eclipse and the Rich Client Platform (RCP) together form a leading development platform. It provides a lightweight software component framework based on plug-ins. In addition to allowing Eclipse to be extended using other programming languages, it provides the key to the seamless integration of tools with Eclipse. The RCP gives Eclipse its modularity: Eclipse employs plug-ins in order to provide all of its functionality on top of (and including) the RCP, in contrast to some other applications where functionality is typically hard-coded. RCP apps are platform independent: they can be built for all major operating systems such as Windows, Linux, and Mac from a single code base. And the RCP provides a professional look and feel for applications. Practical Eclipse Rich Client Platform Projects is a clear and technical guide for Eclipse developers to help them enhance their knowledge and achieve their goals quickly. The book explains the technical concepts easily and in an engaging way. The text provides plenty of source code and images as learning aids. Several practical projects and case studies are included.
