These include binding together existing applications and tools, for example, for automating simulation, data analysis, and visualization. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/122199/python-scripting-for-computational-science-texts-in-computational-science-and-engineering/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/122199/python-scripting-for-computational-science-texts-in-computational-science-and-engineering/ Wed, 13 Jul 2011 15:46:00 GMT James Crowley Tools used for penetration testing are often purchased or downloaded from the Internet. Each tool is based on a programming language such as Perl, Python, or Ruby. If a penetration tester wants to extend, augment, or change the functionality of a tool to perform a test differently than the default configuration, the tester must know the basics of coding for the related programming language. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/129354/coding-for-penetration-testers-building-better-tools/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/129354/coding-for-penetration-testers-building-better-tools/ Mon, 03 Oct 2011 12:19:00 GMT James Crowley Written by the Redis dream team—including its creator, key developers, and the community itself—this book provides the details you need to implement this advanced key-value data store quickly and discerningly. Database administrators, architects, and programmers will learn how to work with different data structures in Redis, how to handle memory, replication, and the cache itself, and how to implement messaging, using just the shell or programming APIs in Ruby, Python, and JavaScript. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/118424/redis-the-definitive-guide-data-modeling-caching-and-messaging/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/118424/redis-the-definitive-guide-data-modeling-caching-and-messaging/ Fri, 22 Apr 2011 23:37:00 GMT James Crowley Master the Powerful Python Standard Library through Real Code ExamplesThe Python Standard Library (PSL) contains hundreds of modules for interacting with the operating system, interpreter, and Internet–all extensively tested and ready to jump-start your application development. The Python Standard Library by Example introduces virtually every important area of the Python 2.7 PSL through concise, standalone source code/output examples, designed for easy learning and reuse. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/115345/the-python-standard-library-by-example-developers-library/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/115345/the-python-standard-library-by-example-developers-library/ Mon, 14 Mar 2011 08:03:00 GMT James Crowley If your organization is looking for a storage solution to accommodate a virtually endless amount of data, this book will show you how Apache HBase can fulfill your needs. As the open source implementation of Google's BigTable architecture, HBase scales to billions of rows and millions of columns, while ensuring that write and read performance remain constant. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/107812/hbase-the-definitive-guide/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/107812/hbase-the-definitive-guide/ Fri, 18 Feb 2011 09:09:00 GMT James Crowley Following the familiar “Design Patterns” format, expert cloud developer Chris Moyer introduces proven patterns for cloud platforms from Amazon, IBM, Microsoft, Google, and other providers. Moyer demonstrates these patterns at work through extensive example code and case study applications for Python and Amazon Web Services (AWS). As you increasingly move to the cloud, you’ll constantly encounter the challenges this book solves. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/117859/building-applications-in-the-cloud-concepts-patterns-and-projects/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/117859/building-applications-in-the-cloud-concepts-patterns-and-projects/ Fri, 15 Apr 2011 22:44:00 GMT James Crowley Popular social networks such as Facebook and Twitter generate a tremendous amount of valuable data on topics and use patterns. Who's talking to whom? What are they talking about? How often are they talking? This concise and practical book shows you how to answer these questions and more by harvesting and analyzing data using social web APIs, Python, and pragmatic storage technologies such as Redis, CouchDB, and NetworkX. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/91303/mining-the-social-web/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/91303/mining-the-social-web/ Sat, 15 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMT James Crowley THE LATEST STRATEGIES FOR UNCOVERING TODAY'S MOST DEVASTATING ATTACKSThwart malicious network intrusion by using cutting-edge techniques for finding and fixing security flaws. Fully updated and expanded with nine new chapters, Gray Hat Hacking: The Ethical Hacker's Handbook, Third Edition details the most recent vulnerabilities and remedies along with legal disclosure methods. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94194/gray-hat-hacking-the-ethical-hackers-handbook-3rd-edition/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94194/gray-hat-hacking-the-ethical-hackers-handbook-3rd-edition/ Tue, 01 Feb 2011 12:33:00 GMT James Crowley This second edition of Foundations of Python Network Programming targets Python 2.5 through Python 2.7, the most popular production versions of the language. Python has made great strides since Apress released the first edition of this book back in the days of Python 2.3. The advances required new chapters to be written from the ground up, and others to be extensively revised. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94198/foundations-of-python-network-programming-the-comprehensive-guide-to-building-network-applications-with-python/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94198/foundations-of-python-network-programming-the-comprehensive-guide-to-building-network-applications-with-python/ Tue, 01 Feb 2011 12:38:00 GMT James Crowley The rising popularity of Apache Cassandra rests on its ability to handle very large data sets that include hundreds of terabytes -- and that's why this distributed database has been chosen by organizations such as Facebook, Twitter, Digg, and Rackspace. With this hands-on guide, you'll get all the details and practical examples you need to understand Cassandra's non-relational database design and put it to work in a production environment. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/88526/cassandra-the-definitive-guide/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/88526/cassandra-the-definitive-guide/ Wed, 15 Dec 2010 00:00:00 GMT James Crowley
