Deus Ex: Icarus Effect

by James Swallow

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. BUT YOU CAN SEE IT FROM HERE. In the near future, with physical augmentation gaining ground and nano-cybernetics only years away, the dawn of limitless human evolution is just beyond the horizon, and a secret corporate cabal of ruthless men intends to make sure that humankind stays under its control. But two people on opposite sides of the world are starting to ask questions that could get them killed. Secret Service agent Anna Kelso has been suspended for investigating the shooting that claimed her partner's life. Anna suspects that the head of a bio-augmentation firm was the real target, and against orders she's turned up a few leads concerning a covert paramilitary force and a cadre of underground hackers. But the cover-up runs deep, and now there's a target on her back. Meanwhile, Ben Saxon, former SAS officer turned mercenary, joins a shadowy special ops outfit. They say they're a force for good, but Saxon quickly learns that the truth is not so clear-cut. So begins a dangerous quest to uncover a deadly secret that will take him from Moscow to London, D. C. to Geneva, and to the dark truth--if he lives that long. The year is 2027; in a world consumed by chaos and conspiracy, two people are set on a collision course with the most powerful and dangerous organization in history--and the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.

DevOps for Airborne Software: Exploring Modern Approaches (SpringerBriefs in Computer Science)

by Umut Durak Wanja Zaeske

This Springer Brief presents a selection of tools and techniques which either enable or improve the use of DevOps for airborne software engineering. They are evaluated against the unique challenges of the aviation industry such as safety and airworthiness, and exercised using a demonstrator in order to gather first experience. The book is structured as follows: after a short introduction to the main topics of the work in chapter 1, chapter 2 provides more information on the tools, techniques, software and standards required to implement the subsequently presented ideas. In particular, the development practice BDD, the relation between DevOps, CI & CD and both the Rust & the Nix programming language are introduced. In chapter 3 the authors explain and justify their ideas towards advancing the state of the art, mapping the aforementioned tools and techniques to the DevOps Cycle while considering aspects of Do-178C. Next, in chapter 4 the experiences gathered while implementing a demonstrator using the tools and techniques are described. Eventually, chapter 5 briefly summarizes the findings and presents a compilation of open points and missing pieces which are yet to be resolved. The book targets three different reader groups. The first one are development managers from the aerospace industry who need to see examples and experience reports for the application of DevOps for airborne software. The second group are investigators in the safety-critical embedded systems domain who look for benchmarks at various application domains. And the third group are lecturers who offer graduate level software engineering courses for safety-critical software engineering.

DevOps for Data Science (Chapman & Hall/CRC Data Science Series)

by Alex Gold

Data Scientists are experts at analyzing, modelling and visualizing data but, at one point or another, have all encountered difficulties in collaborating with or delivering their work to the people and systems that matter. Born out of the agile software movement, DevOps is a set of practices, principles and tools that help software engineers reliably deploy work to production. This book takes the lessons of DevOps and aplies them to creating and delivering production-grade data science projects in Python and R.This book’s first section explores how to build data science projects that deploy to production with no frills or fuss. Its second section covers the rudiments of administering a server, including Linux, application, and network administration before concluding with a demystification of the concerns of enterprise IT/Administration in its final section, making it possible for data scientists to communicate and collaborate with their organization’s security, networking, and administration teams.Key Features:• Start-to-finish labs take readers through creating projects that meet DevOps best practices and creating a server-based environment to work on and deploy them.• Provides an appendix of cheatsheets so that readers will never be without the reference they need to remember a Git, Docker, or Command Line command.• Distills what a data scientist needs to know about Docker, APIs, CI/CD, Linux, DNS, SSL, HTTP, Auth, and more.• Written specifically to address the concern of a data scientist who wants to take their Python or R work to production.There are countless books on creating data science work that is correct. This book, on the otherhand, aims to go beyond this, targeted at data scientists who want their work to be than merely accurate and deliver work that matters.

DevOps for the Desperate is a hands-on, no-nonsense guide for those who land in a DevOps environment and need to get up and running quickly.This book introduces fundamental concepts software developers need to know to flourish in a modern DevOps environment including infrastructure as code, configuration management, security, containerization and orchestration, monitoring and alerting, and troubleshooting. Readers will follow along with hands-on examples to learn how to tackle common DevOps tasks. The book begins with an exploration of DevOps concepts using Vagrant and Ansible to build systems with repeatable and predictable states, including configuring a host with user-based security. Next up is a crash course on containerization, orchestration, and delivery using Docker, Kubernetes, and a CI/CDpipeline. The book concludes with a primer in monitoring and alerting with tips for troubleshootingcommon host and application issues. You'll learn how to:Use Ansible to manage users and groups, and enforce complex passwordsCreate a security policy for administrative permissions, and automate a host-based firewallGet started with Docker to containerize applications, use Kubernetes for orchestration, and deploycode using a CI/CD pipelineBuild a monitoring stack, investigate common metric patterns, and trigger alertsTroubleshoot and analyze common issues and errors found on hosts

DevOps for the Modern Enterprise: Winning Practices to Transform Legacy IT Organizations

by Mirco Hering

Many organizations are facing the uphill battle of modernizing their legacy IT infrastructure. Most have evolved over the years by taking lessons from traditional or legacy manufacturing: creating a production process that puts the emphasis on the process instead of the people performing the tasks, allowing the organization to treat people like resources to try to achieve high-quality outcomes. But those practices and ideas are failing modern IT, where collaboration and creativeness are required to achieve high-performing, high-quality success.Mirco Hering, a thought leader in managing IT within legacy organizations, lays out a roadmap to success for IT managers, showing them how to create the right ecosystem, how to empower people to bring their best to work every day, and how to put the right technology in the driver's seat to propel their organization to success.But just having the right methods and tools will not magically transform an organization; the cultural change that is the hardest is also the most impactful. Using principles from Agile, Lean, and DevOps as well as first-hand examples from the enterprise world, Hering addresses the different challenges that legacy organizations face as they transform into modern IT departments.

DevOps in Python: Infrastructure as Python

by Moshe Zadka

Explore and apply best practices for efficient application deployment. This book draws upon author Moshe Zadka's years of Dev Ops experience and focuses on the parts of Python, and the Python ecosystem, that are relevant for DevOps engineers. You'll start by writing command-line scripts and automating simple DevOps-style tasks. You'll then move on to more advanced cases, like using Jupyter as an auditable remote-control panel, and writing Ansible and Salt extensions. This work also covers how to use the AWS API to manage cloud infrastructure, and how to manage Python programs and environments on remote machines.Python was invented as a systems management language for distributed operating systems, which makes it an ideal tool for DevOps. ​Assuming a basic understanding of Python concepts, this book is perfect for engineers who want to move from operations/system administration into coding.
