Key Features * Build reliable and secure applications using Docker containers. * Create a highly available environment to scale a Docker servers using Kubernetes * Implement advance continuous delivery process by parallelizing the pipeline tasks Book Description Continuous Delivery with Docker and Jenkins, Second Edition will explain the advantages of combining Jenkins and Docker to improve the continuous integration and delivery process of an app development. It will start with setting up a Docker server and configuring Jenkins on it. It will then provide steps to build applications on Docker files and integrate them with Jenkins using continuous delivery processes such as continuous integration, automated acceptance testing, and configuration management. Moving on, you will learn how to ensure quick application deployment with Docker containers along with scaling Jenkins using Kubernetes. Next, you will get to know how to deploy applications using Docker images and testing them with Jenkins. Towards the end, the book will touch base with missing parts of the CD pipeline, which are the environments and infrastructure, application versioning, and nonfunctional testing. By the end of the book, you will be enhancing the DevOps workflow by integrating the functionalities of Docker and Jenkins. What you will learn * Get to grips with docker fundamentals and how to dockerize an application for the CD process * Learn how to use Jenkins on the Cloud environments * Scale a pool of Docker servers using Kubernetes * Create multi-container applications using Docker Compose * Write acceptance tests using Cucumber and run them in the Docker ecosystem using Jenkins * Publish a built Docker image to a Docker Registry and deploy cycles of Jenkins pipelines using community best practices Who this book is for The book targets DevOps engineers, system administrators, docker professionals or any stakeholders who would like to explore the power of working with Docker and Jenkins together. No prior knowledge of DevOps is required for this book.
Linux Device Driver Development Cookbook
￥70.84
Over 30 recipes to develop custom drivers for your embedded Linux applications. Key Features * Use Kernel facilities to develop powerful drivers * Via a practical approach, learn core concepts of developing device drivers * Program a custom character device to get access to kernel internals Book Description Linux is a unified kernel that is widely used to develop embedded systems. As Linux has turned out to be one of the most popular operating systems used, the interest in developing proprietary device drivers has also increased. Device drivers play a critical role in how the system performs and ensures that the device works in the manner intended. By offering several examples on the development of character devices and how to use other kernel internals, such as interrupts, kernel timers, and wait queue, as well as how to manage a device tree, you will be able to add proper management for custom peripherals to your embedded system. You will begin by installing the Linux kernel and then configuring it. Once you have installed the system, you will learn to use the different kernel features and the character drivers. You will also cover interrupts in-depth and how you can manage them. Later, you will get into the kernel internals required for developing applications. Next, you will implement advanced character drivers and also become an expert in writing important Linux device drivers. By the end of the book, you will be able to easily write a custom character driver and kernel code as per your requirements. What you will learn * Become familiar with the latest kernel releases (4.19+/5.x) running on the ESPRESSObin devkit, an ARM 64-bit machine * Download, configure, modify, and build kernel sources * Add and remove a device driver or a module from the kernel * Master kernel programming * Understand how to implement character drivers to manage different kinds of computer peripherals * Become well versed with kernel helper functions and objects that can be used to build kernel applications * Acquire a knowledge of in-depth concepts to manage custom hardware with Linux from both the kernel and user space Who this book is for This book will help anyone who wants to develop their own Linux device drivers for embedded systems. Having basic hand-on with Linux operating system and embedded concepts is necessary.
