Although we do have some good books about open source software licensing, most of these books are written by (and to) lawyers, which hinder the understanding of busy developers. This book also has a practical orientation. After covering the concepts of open source licensing, we highlight real examples of good and bad licensing usage.

This book is for those who want to practically experience how OpenStack works, how its services connect, and how to manage them with confidence in real-world deployments.

We'll build an agent step-by-step, starting with a small loop that accepts input and produces structured output. As we go, we'll add tools, validation, model switching, runtime adapters, and packaging techniques that'll let the agent move from a simple script to a reusable application.

Most organizations do not suffer from a lack of data. They suffer from late data.Mobile and no-code platforms have changed how quickly truth enters enterprise systems—but many experienced IT leaders still feel something important has shifted.This book explains what actually changed, what did not, and how to extend enterprise discipline safely into modern mobile workflows.

Digitale Transformation war das Hype-Thema vor KI. Es gibt allerdings einen nicht geringen Anteil an Fach- und Führungskräften, deren Wissen darüber weiter ausbaufähig ist. Dieses Buch ist eine Einführung für alle diejenigen, die keine "digitalen Pioniere" sind, sondern wissen wollen, was aus dem Thema Digitalisierung auf sie zukommen kann und aus dem Thema KI zusätzlich auf sie zukommen wird.

Stop Reading 3,000-Page Manuals. Start Seeing the Architecture.

Tired of god factories and 200-parameter constructors? In one intense week, I turned a payment provider monolith into modular, self-registering NestJS heaven. This book shows you how without losing your mind (mostly).

In this book, you'll see that the book is designed with one main idea. It aims to give you the skills, confidence and understanding you need to build and deliver real Backend systems. Each chapter is designed to teach you everything you need to know to get hands-on with writing, configuring, deploying and troubleshooting your own projects. Right at the start, we got stuck into designing APIs and building backend systems. We didn't just stick to the basics, though. We went beyond that pretty quickly and started using modern protocols like gRPC and the key contract-first methods that are now the norm for scalable backend systems.

This book opens the door for developers, project managers, product managers, and business analysts who want to understand how trading systems really work — from trade booking and lifecycle processing to data flow and integration. It provides the knowledge and perspective needed to gain a true edge in one of the most technically sophisticated domains in finance.

Your API deserves more than just working, it deserves to be exceptional.

How Software Fails: A Field Guide to Understanding Complex System DisastersSoftware failures aren’t accidents, they’re inevitable. From cosmic rays flipping bits to tiny files crashing millions of machines, our most critical systems collapse in ways no one foresaw. Through gripping cases, the $460M Knight Capital meltdown, the lethal Therac-25, a file grounding global air travel, this book uncovers the hidden rules of complex disasters. Drawing on Richard Cook’s principles, it shows why testing can’t guarantee safety, how “reasonable” choices spawn chaos, and why scale makes the impossible certain. But it’s also about resilience: NASA’s Mars rovers, Netflix’s chaos engineering, and the ethics of life-critical systems. For engineers, managers, or curious readers, this guide reshapes how you see the fragile systems running our world.
