Books

Configure Artemis shared memory, documents and local work continuity for an OpenAI Agents SDK agent on Windows.

Stop relying on abstract marketing buzzwords. Master the real technical architecture, decision trees, and production-grade ABAP Cloud patterns needed to build upgrade-stable Clean Core extensions on SAP S/4HANA and SAP BTP.

What if you could engineer a business the way you engineer software?Digital-First Business presents a systematic approach to business design based on software engineering principles. Learn how to structure operations, define business domains, integrate workflows, and build organizations that are observable, automatable, and designed to evolve.A framework for founders, executives, engineers, and anyone building the next generation of businesses.

Most books describe architecture. This one builds it. Explore Layered, Hexagonal, Modular Monolith, and Microservices architectures through the development of a single application, implemented in Java, step by step, with all their trade-offs.

AI-assisted code often looks finished while resting on a premise nobody checked. A practical, evidence-based method for developers, tech leads and architects to find system-level defects before they ship.

The model is one box. This book is about every other box: retries, contracts, evals, budgets, guardrails and agents for backend engineers shipping LLM features to production.

Retries, timeouts, webhooks and month-end reconciliation: the parts tutorials skip. A practical book for backend engineers who build or own payment systems, from cards to real-time rails like Pix, UPI and QRIS.

Understand Redis data structures, caching, persistence, replication, and reliable operations through clear visual explanations.

Understand microservices through clear diagrams of service boundaries, data ownership, communication, resilience, and operations.

Kill an AI agent mid-refund and the retry bills every model call again and refunds twice. This book crashes one agent on purpose and recovers it on DBOS, Temporal, Restate and Prefect, with the real output of every run.

Understand how identity, devices, policy, enforcement, and telemetry work together in Zero Trust. Clear diagrams trace access decisions and explain practical security architecture, migration, and operations.

Build a practical understanding of Model Context Protocol from the first local server to production operations. Visual explanations connect protocol contracts, hosts and clients, authorization, testing, reliability, observability, deployment, and recovery.

Understand how independent AI agents discover each other, exchange messages, and coordinate tasks. Clear diagrams introduce Agent2Agent architecture, interaction patterns, security, and reliable operation.

We will define the developer contract first, and we will then build the platform underneath it together, step by step, using decisions that hold up in regulated environments and in small startups alike. Along the way, we will provision clusters, wire delivery, publish a developer API, enforce policy and ship observability, and we will do all of it where you can see every command, every manifest and every failure. Nothing here stays theoretical, because platform problems only show their true shape where an abstraction meets a real cluster.

Building reliable distributed systems is harder than it looks. This book takes you from the fundamentals of message queues to the realities of distributed transactions, with working code, practical patterns and production lessons to guide you. Learn how to handle failures, maintain consistency and build systems that keep working when things go wrong.
