Learn to build powerful and scalable applications with Flux, the architecture that serves billions of Facebook users every dayAbout This Book·This the first resource dedicated to the new architectural pattern that powers Facebook·You'll learn all the tips and tricks you need to get the most out of Flux·Filled with practical, hands-on samples, you'll not only understand how Flux works, but will be able to start building Flux-powered applications straight away·Written by Adam Boduch, software architect at Virtustream (EMC), and author of JavaScript at Scale, JavaScript Concurrency, and jQuery UI Cookbook for Packt PublishingWho This Book Is ForAre you trying to use React, but are struggling to get your head around Flux? Maybe you're tired of MV* spaghetti code at scale? Do you find yourself asking what the Flux?!Flux Architecture will guide you through everything you need to understand the Flux pattern, and design and build powerful web applications that rely on the Flux architecture.You don't need to know what Flux is or how it works to read along with the book. No knowledge of Flux's partner technology, ReactJS, is necessary to follow along, but it is recommended that you have a good working knowledge of JavaScript.What You Will Learn·Understand the Flux pattern and how it will impact your React applications·Build real-world applications that rely on Flux·Handle asynchronous actions in your application·Implement immutable stores with Immutable.js·Replace React.js with alternate View components such as jQuery and Handlebars·Test and benchmark your Flux architecture using Jest—Facebook's enhancement of the Jasmine libraryIn DetailWhilst React has become Facebook's poster-child for clean, complex, and modern web development, it has quietly been underpinned by its simplicity. It's just a view. The real beauty in React is actually the architectural pattern that handles data in and out of React applications: Flux. With Flux, you're able to build data-rich applications that engage your users, and scale to meet every demand. It is a key part of the Facebook technology stack that serves billions of users every day.This book will start by introducing the Flux pattern and help you get an understanding of what it is and how it works. After this, we'll build real-world React applications that highlight the power and simplicity of Flux in action. Finally, we look at the landscape of Flux and explore the Alt and Redux libraries that make React and Flux developments easier.Filled with fully-worked examples and code-first explanations, by the end of the book, you'll not only have a rock solid understanding of the architecture, but will be ready to implement Flux architecture in anger.Style and approachThis book is filled with practical, hands-on examples. You'll not only understand how Flux works, but will be able to start building Flux-powered applications straight away.

Design and implement efficient RESTful solutions with this practical hands-on guideAbout This Book·Create a fully featured RESTful API solution from scratch.·Learn how to leverage Node.JS, Express, MongoDB and NoSQL datastores to give an extra edge to your REST API design.·Use this practical guide to integrate MongoDB in your Node.js application.Who This Book Is ForThe ideal target audience for this book is web developers who have some experience with RESTful services. Familiarity with basic JavaScript programming techniques is required. No prior experience with Node.JS or Express.js is required.What You Will Learn·Install, develop, and test your own Node.js user modules·Comprehend the differences between an HTTP and a RESTful application·Optimize RESTful service URI routing with best practices·Eliminate third-party dependencies in your tests with mocking·Learn about NoSQL data stores and integrate MongoDB in your Node.js application with Mongoose·Secure your services with NoSQL database integration within Node.js applications·Enrich your development skills to create scalable, server-side, RESTful applications based on the Node.js platformIn DetailIn this era of cloud computing, every data provisioning solution is built in a scalable and fail-safe way. Thus, when building RESTful services, the right choice for the underlying platform is vital. Node.js, with its asynchronous, event-driven architecture, is exactly the right choice to build RESTful APIs.This book will help you enrich your development skills to create scalable, server-side, RESTful applications based on the Node.js platform.Starting with the fundamentals of REST, you will understand why RESTful web services are better data provisioning solution than other technologies. You will start setting up a development environment by installing Node.js, Express.js, and other modules. Next, you will write a simple HTTP request handler and create and test Node.js modules using automated tests and mock objects. You will then have to choose the most appropriate data storage type, having options between a key/value or document data store, and also you will implement automated tests for it. This module will evolve chapter by chapter until it turns into a full-fledged and secure Restful service.Style and approachCreate state of the art RESTful API solutions leveraging Node.JS 4.x.

A practical guide to rapidly and efficiently mastering Docker containers, along with tips and tricks learned in the field.About This Book·Use Docker containers, horizontal node scaling, modern orchestration tools (Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, and Mesos) and Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery to manage your infrastructure.·Increase service density by turning often-idle machines into hosts for numerous Docker services.·Learn what it takes to build a true container infrastructure that is scalable, reliable, and resilient in the face of increased complexities from using container infrastructures.·Find out how to identify, debug, and mitigate most real-world, undocumented issues when deploying your own Docker infrastructure.·Learn tips and tricks of the trade from existing Docker infrastructures running in production environments.Who This Book Is ForThis book is aimed at system administrators, developers, DevOps engineers, and software engineers who want to get concrete, hands-on experience deploying multi-tier web applications and containerized microservices using Docker. This book is also for anyone who has worked on deploying services in some fashion and wants to take their small-scale setups to the next level (or simply to learn more about the process).What You Will Learn·Set up a working development environment and create a simple web service to demonstrate the basics·Learn how to make your service more usable by adding a database and an app server to process logic·Add resilience to your services by learning how to horizontally scale with a few containers on a single node·Master layering isolation and messaging to simplify and harden the connectivity between containers·Learn about numerous issues encountered at scale and their workarounds, from the kernel up to code versioning·Automate the most important parts of your infrastructure with continuous integrationIn DetailDeploying Docker into production is considered to be one of the major pain points in developing large-scale infrastructures, and the documentation available online leaves a lot to be desired. With this book, you will learn everything you wanted to know to effectively scale your deployments globally and build a resilient, scalable, and containerized cloud platform for your own use.The book starts by introducing you to the containerization ecosystem with some concrete and easy-to-digest examples; after that, you will delve into examples of launching multiple instances of the same container. From there, you will cover orchestration, multi-node setups, volumes, and almost every relevant component of this new approach to deploying services. Using intertwined approaches, the book will cover battle-tested tooling, or issues likely to be encountered in real-world scenarios, in detail. You will also learn about the other supporting components required for a true PaaS deployment and discover common options to tie the whole infrastructure together.At the end of the book, you learn to build a small, but functional, PaaS (to appreciate the power of the containerized service approach) and continue to explore real-world approaches to implementing even larger global-scale services.Style and approachThis in-depth learning guide shows you how to deploy your applications in production using Docker (from the basic steps to advanced concepts) and how to overcome challenges in Docker-based infrastructures. The book also covers practical use-cases in real-world examples, and provides tips and tricks on the various topics.
