Before containers, service meshes, and modern security platforms, qmail showed how much could be achieved with Unix processes, file permissions, queues, and discipline.

Software and infrastructure only create value when they pull in the same direction as the business. This book shows IT leaders how to get there: from shaping IT strategy and the architecture roadmap to the daily discipline of IT and architecture governance, all built on a pattern-based approach that adapts to your organization rather than forcing it into a template.Grounded in established frameworks such as TOGAF, COBIT, and ITIL, it pairs solid fundamentals with numerous real-world examples — and gives growing weight to compliance and IT security, now central concerns of any IT management agenda.This English edition is based on the German standard work on the subject, fully revised in its 4th edition (late 2024). It is current with TOGAF 10 and reflects recent developments in business-oriented enterprise architecture — including the open-source tool EDGY and patterns for digital strategy — alongside the latest trends in IT risk management and cybersecurity architecture.

Go from monolithic frontend pain to a fully deployed micro frontend architecture. A hands-on, production-focused guide to Webpack 5 Module Federation, ending with a complete multi-team app you build and ship yourself.

Your first AI integration is usually simple: one provider, one SDK, one model. Then production happens. Costs rise. Rate limits appear. Teams need access control. Security wants API keys centralized. Product wants to test better models. Finance wants to know who is spending what. Suddenly, the real problem is not calling an LLM. The real problem is operating AI as shared infrastructure. The End of AI Vendor Lock-In shows how LiteLLM helps teams build provider-agnostic, resilient, cost-aware AI systems that can route across models, manage fallbacks, track spend, enforce budgets, and reduce dependency on any single provider. If you are building AI products that need to survive real-world production pressure, this book is for you.

Una crónica del Domain-Driven Design desde el modelo anémico de los noventa hasta la práctica contemporánea, con manual y catálogo de cuarenta fichas. Para programadores que quieren aplicar DDD con criterio, no por inercia.

AI writes code faster than you can review it. This book gives you the gates: automated guardrails that catch bugs, enforce standards, and verify behavior before bad code reaches production. Stop being the last line of defense. Build the gates that catch the slop first, so you design and verify instead of proofread.

This book is not just another introduction to Domain-Driven Design (DDD). It explores real-world design problems, challenges conventional approaches, introduces new ideas by providing practical guidelines on three levels of abstraction, which the author calls "Clean Bounded Contexts", "Clean Aggregates" and "Clean Domain-Driven Code". These terms together form a specialized, systematic approach to professional software engineering for backend applications. The book is packed with detailed diagrams and code examples. Along the way, readers gain practical guidelines and design insights that help them confidently apply these concepts in their own software projects.

How to put AI agents in production without ending up in the news. A field guide to bounded AI autonomy, MCP security, and AgentSecOps.

The chapter that grew into its own book: existential and universal restrictions, the correct VegetarianPizza pattern, and how OWL restrictions become EKA governance.

Denne bog er skrevet til dig der vil bygge professionel C#-software — ikke bare kode der kompilerer, men kode der kan vedligeholdes, testes, skaleres, og forklares for andre.

Most data modelling books teach you the craft. This one teaches you the reality. Seven chapters of honest, practical guidance from real project experience — covering conceptual modelling, governance, enterprise challenges, and the human side of data work that nobody else writes about.

Stop being a 'Syntax Coder' and start becoming a 'Diagnostic Architect' by mastering the hidden mental models of software failure. This book teaches you how to own every logical branch of your system and eliminate bugs before they even happen. Stop guessing and start diagnosing.

If you've ever wondered what the quantum computing stack actually looks like from top to bottom, this is the book.

Exploring Java Libraries: A Developer’s Guide, Volume II is a hands-on guide to Java’s text-processing, desktop GUI, and accessibility libraries. Through practical examples, structured explanations, and real-world coding scenarios, it helps developers move beyond theory and master Java’s AWT, Swing, and java.text ecosystem.
