Pro TypeScriptApplication-scale JavaScript Development

JavaScript is everywhere on the web, both as a pure language and in popular libraries like jQuery, but users of modern object-oriented languages like Java and C# often find JavaScript frustrating to use and extend to large-scale applications. TypeScript is an innovative open source language from Mi-crosoft that combines powerful language features and enhanced tooling support with the key attrac-tions of JavaScript as a flexible language that can run in any browser and on any operating system. Pro TypeScript tells you everything you need to know about this exciting new language and how to use it in your applications. Starting with an intro-duction to the language and its features, the book takes you through some of the major features of TypeScript in depth, from working with the type system through object-orientation to understand-ing the runtime and the TypeScript compiler.

Features 7 First pro-level guide to TypeScript devel-opment, with truly cross-platform appeal for Microsoft and non-Microsoft programmers (as of this summer, over half of TypeScript downloads were from non-Microsoft platforms, which is very impressive for a Microsoft technology, especially pre v 1.0). 7 Important innovative program-ming topic for Apress brand 7 Potential for broad appeal as the language grows in popular-ity. JavaScript is traditionally looked down on by programmers using modern OOP languages, but TypeScript adds many of the language feature and tooling advantages that have been missing up till now, combining JavaScript’s existing strengths with those of C# or Java

SQL Server In-Memory OLTPSQL Server In-Memory OLTP is your one-stop resource for learning all about the new support in SQL Server 2014 for in-memory online transac-tion processing. You are now able to create tables and other objects such as indexes that exist only in memory, and never on disk. This is a game-chang-ing feature with ripple effects that extend across the domains of transaction management, perfor-mance optimization and scalability, and mainte-nance and troubleshooting, and and application development. Formerly known under the code name of “Project Hekaton”, in-memory support is the defining new feature of the 2014 release. Database administrators and application designers must become familiar with the feature in order to know when it is best used, and when it is best avoided. Use of in-memory tables and indexes can bring tremendous performance benefits, but then you must know how to manage those objects and how to write applications against them in an opti-mal manner. SQL Server In-Memory OLTP pro-vides several reference architectures to help you see how in-memory objects can be implemented in different situations. You’ll learn how to monitor and troubleshoot in-memory objects, and how to optimize their performance. You’ll learn about programming caveats and transaction manage-ment. Support for in-memory objects is a game changer, and their use must at least be considered in all new database and application design work, and when attacking problems of performance and scalability.

Feature 7 In-Memory OLTP support is the single, defin-ing new feature in SQL 7 Server 2014 DBAs can-not afford to remain uneducated about this new feature 7 There is notable impact across the areas of application design, database design, transaction design, and performance optimization

Pro Single Page Application DevelopmentUsing Backbone.js and ASP.NET

One of the most important and exciting trends in web development in recent years is the move towards single page applications, or SPAs. Instead of clicking through hyperlinks and waiting for each page to load, the user loads a site once and all the interactivity is handled fluidly by a rich JavaScript front end. If you come from a back-ground in ASP.NET development, you’ll be used to handling most interactions on the server side. Pro Single Page Application Development will guide you through your transition to this powerful new application type. The book starts in Part I by laying the groundwork for SPA development. You’ll master some JavaScript techniques that will come in useful later on, and get to know the build-ing blocks of a single page application, including modules, routing and MV* frameworks. In Part II, you’ll build the client for your application. This is where the magic happens, as the authors take you through the process step by step. Backbone.

Feature 7 Single page applications are a hot topic in web development at the moment, and set to stay there because they represent what users expect from modern sites (content at your fingertips, fast and fluid interactivity) 7 This book specifically tar-gets developers with a .NET background, playing to Apress' strong NET readerbase and providing something tailored to their level of experience of HTML and JavaScript 7 Teaches the concepts and architecture behind good SPA development, not just how to implement it in a specific framework

The Agile ConsultantBest Practices in Guiding and Coaching Developers, Managers, and Executives on the Transition to Agile

Since the release of the “Agile Manifesto” in 2001, Forrester Research reports that a majority of IT shops have now adopted some agile practices. This rapid adoption proves a simple truth: agile works – especially compared with the documentation – heavy, slow project management methods of the past. Why? The agile philosophy of innovation, incremental development, deep client participa-tion, decentralized authority, and just-in-time development brings speed, time-saving creativity, and increased productivity to product develop-ment. But the widespread adoption of agile methods doesn’t mean organizations are getting all the benefits agile can provide. As with any rapid migration, agile has brought resistance and challenges that can be difficult to overcome. The Agile Consultant, by former Intel worldwide project management director and agile expert Rick Freedman, shows how to overcome challenges and roadblocks so organizations realize all the benefits agile methods can provide.

Features 7 First book for agile consultants 7 Author a former global project director for Intel 7 Author travels the world doing agile seminars Real need for the book--companies adopt agile and fail or don't get all the benefits 7 Great primer not just for consultants but senior execs, project and program managers, etc. 7 First book to help companies change their culture to embrace agile Concentrates on overcoming the barriers to suc-cess with agile 7 Author writes for TechRepublic, a CBS-owned Website

It is intended mainly for be-ginners to the field of information security, written in a way that makes it easy for them to under-stand the detailed content of the book. The book offers a practical and simple view of the security practices while still offering somewhat techni-cal and detailed information relating to security. It helps the reader build a strong foundation of information, allowing them to move forward from the book with a larger knowledge base. Security is a constantly growing concern that everyone must deal with. Whether it’s an average computer user or a highly skilled computer user, they are always confronted with different security risks. These risks range in danger and should always be dealt with accordingly. Unfortunately, not everyone is aware of the dangers or how to prevent them and this is where most of the issues arise in informa-tion technology (IT). When computer users do not take security into account many issues can arise from that like system compromises or loss of data and information. This is an obvious issue that is present with all computer users.

4G: Deployment Strategies and Operational ImplicationsManaging Critical Decisions in Deployment of 4G/LTE Networks and their Effects on Network Operations and Business

Specific operational requirements drive early network architectural and design decisions for 4G networks. This book evaluates the specific design and deployment options and strategies for LTE network business development. LTE is a robust and flexible standard for 4G communica-tions, with many deployment options. Opera-tors developing 4G deployment strategies must consider these options and their tradeoffs in order to maximize return on investment for LTE networks. Operators must develop detailed but flexible deployment roadmaps to comprehend their business requirements while allowing the agility that unexpected network evolution will re-quire in order to avoid costly redeployment while leveraging profitable traffic. Network upgrade and architectural evolution roadmaps (with options) must be clearly understood and communicated. The book will examine various architectural op-tions provided by the flexibility of LTE and their effect on the general current and future capability of the designed network. Specific features will be examined, and specific example architectural deployment strategies examined for their implica-tions on near term and out year operations and evolutionary paths. The book will outline specific overall network strategies, what network features and deployment strategies support those network strategies, and the tradeoffs in business models implied by these strategies. A process for proactive management of network roadmap evolution will be proposed.
