‧Implement over 40 practical activities and exercises across 24 topics to reinforce your learning

Book Description

As the cloud version of SQL Server, Azure SQL Database differs in key ways when it comes to management, maintenance, and administration. It’s important to know how to administer SQL Database to fully benefit from all of the features and functionality that it provides. This book addresses important aspects of an Azure SQL Database instance such as migration, backup restorations, pricing policies, security, scalability, monitoring, performance optimization, high availability, and disaster recovery. It is a complete guide for database administrators, and ideal for those who are planning to migrate from on premise SQL Server database to an Azure SQL Server database.

What you will learn
‧Learn how to provision a new database or migrate an existing on-premise solution
‧Understand how to backup, restore, secure, and scale your own Azure SQL Database
‧Optimize the performance by monitoring and tuning your cloud-based SQL instance
‧Implement high availability and disaster recovery procedures with SQL Database
‧Develop a roadmap for your own scalable cloud solution with Azure SQL Database

Who this book is for

This book is ideal for database administrators, database developers, or application developers who are interested in developing or migrating existing applications with Azure SQL Database. Prior experience of working with an on-premise SQL Server deployment and brief knowledge of PowerShell and C# are recommended prerequisites.

If your application source code is overly verbose, it can be a nightmare to maintain. Write concise and expressive, type-safe code in an environment that lets you build for the JVM, browser, and more.

Key Features
‧Expert guidance that shows you to efficiently use both object-oriented and functional programming techniques
‧Understand functional programming libraries, such as Cats and Scalaz, and use them to augment your Scala development
‧Perfectly balances theory and hands-on exercises, assessments, and activities

Book Description

This book teaches you how to build and contribute to Scala programs, recognizing common patterns and techniques used with the language. You’ll learn how to write concise, functional code with Scala. After an introduction to core concepts, syntax, and writing example applications with scalac, you’ll learn about the Scala Collections API and how the language handles type safety via static types out-of-the-box. You’ll then learn about advanced functional programming patterns, and how you can write your own Domain Specific Languages (DSLs). By the end of the book, you’ll be equipped with the skills you need to successfully build smart, efficient applications in Scala that can be compiled to the JVM.

What you will learn
‧Understand the key language syntax and core concepts for application development
‧Master the type system to create scalable type-safe applications while cutting down your time spent debugging
‧Understand how you can work with advanced data structures via built-in features such as the Collections library
‧Use classes, objects, and traits to transform a trivial chatbot program into a useful assistant
‧Understand what are pure functions, immutability, and higher-order functions
‧Recognize and implement popular functional programming design patterns

Who this book is for

This is an ideal book for developers who are looking to learn Scala, and is particularly well suited for Java developers looking to migrate across to Scala for application development on the JVM.
