Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book covers the inexorable exhaustion of the IPv4 address space, the interim fix to this based on Network Address Translation (NAT) and Private Addresses, and the differences between IPv4 and IPv6. It will help you understand the limitations and problems introduced by the use of NAT and introduce you to the far simpler network and software designs possible, using a larger, unified address space.IPv6, a mature and viable replacement for IPv4, is currently used by more than 36% of all global Internet traffic. Wireless telephone service providers in many countries have migrated their networks to IPv6 with great success. The elimination of NAT and Private Addresses has vastly simplified network design and implementation. Further, there are now enough public addresses allocated to accommodate all anticipated uses for the foreseeable future.Most networking products and software, especially open-source software, are already fully IPv6 compliant. Today, no business should purchase obsolete products that support only IPv4. The global IPv6 Forum estimates that there are millions of networking professionals still needing to learn the fundamentals of IPv6 technologies to move forward. This book is for them. With plans in place for a shutdown of IPv4 on global networks ('Sunset IPv4') the time to learn is now. If you want a job in IT, especially network hardware or software, and you don't know IPv6,you are already obsolete.What You Will Learn This book serves as a guide to all relevant Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards Request for Comments (RFCs), organized by topic and discussed in plain language Understand how IPv6 makes viable technologies such as multicast (for efficient global audio/video streaming), IPsec VPNs (for better security), and simpler VoIP Take 'edge computing' to the limit by eliminating intermediary servers made necessary by IPv4 NAT-for example, making connections directly from my node to yours Discover how organizations can introduce IPv6 into existing IPv4 networks ('Dual Stack'), and then eliminate the legacy IPv4 aspects going forward ('Pure IPv6') for the mandates going into place now (for example, US DoD requirements to move all networks to Pure IPv6)Recognize that 5G networking (the Grand Convergence of conventional networks and wireless service) depends heavily on the advanced features IPv6Who This Book Is ForNetworking professionals. Readers should have at least some familiarity with the precursor protocol (IPv4) and legacy TCP/IP based networks. Some knowledge of network models, such as DoD four-layer model or OSI 7-layer model, is helpful to understand where the Internet Protocol fits into the larger picture. For network software developers using the Sockets API (in UNIX, Windows, etc.), this book will help you to understand the extensions to that API needed to work with IPv6. 411 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -So, you want to learn C# and Visual Studio 2022, but are a bit intimidated Don't be. Programming is within your grasp!Programmers at any level have to fully understand, and more importantly, be able to code the core constructs. It is impossible to use complex programming concepts such as classes before understanding what methods and variables and their data types are. Once there is a foundation built on the basics, then all other topics can fall in line.While it is a forgone conclusion that languages change with the introduction of new features, the core concepts do not. Even large enterprises do not always update to the latest versions of languages and frameworks; their 'backbone' applications have been developed to work, regardless. More than ever, enterprises need developers who can master and apply the core programming concepts and then be 'up-skilled' with newer language levels and features as they integrate into the company.This book builds from the ground up.You will begin with an introduction to programming, learning the foundational concepts needed to become a C# programmer. You will then put to practice a wide range of programming concepts, including data types, selection, iteration, arrays, methods, classes and objects, serialization, file handling, and string handling. You will learn enough to develop applications that emulate commercial application code. Once you've got the foundational concepts, get ready to dive into common programming routines, including linear search, binary search, bubble sort and insertion sort, and use C# to code them. Code example annotations supplement the learning and are designed to enhance learning while also explaining why the code does what it does.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book offers comprehensive coverage of the various technologies and techniques used to build technical products. You will learn how technical product development is collaboratively done across multiple technical teams, primarily those in software engineering, data engineering, and AI/ML engineering. You will also be introduced to the technologies these teams use to develop features and products.Many roles in the organization work alongside these technical product development teams and act as liaisons between them, the stakeholders, the customers, and the leadership team. The people in these roles must understand technical aspects ranging from system design to artificial intelligence, and be able to engage in technical discussions with the engineering teams to determine the pros, cons, and risks associated with the development of a technology product or feature.Technical Building Blocks will help you master these technical skills. The book has just the right level of technical details to neither overwhelm with unnecessary technical depth, nor be superficial.From concepts to code snippets, authors Gaurav Sagar and Vitalii Syrovatskyi cover it all to give you an understanding of the engineer's mind and their work. Special emphasis on figures and charts will help you grasp complex ideas more quickly. After reading this book, you'll be able to effectively communicate with engineering teams, provide valuable inputs in the system design review meetings of upcoming features and products, synthesize and simplify technical updates for cross-functional teams and stakeholders, and pass those dreaded technical interviews at your dream companies.What You Will LearnIntrinsic details of the teams and techniques used for product developmentConcepts of cloud computing and its deployment modelsSystem design fundamentals required to architect features and productsEvolution of data pipelines and data storage solutions to support big dataML and deep learning algorithms to build intelligence into productsSecuring products through identity and access management using cryptographyRole and working of blockchains, smart contracts, NFTs, and dApps in Web3Who This Book is ForProfessionals in roles who work with software engineering teams and want to build their technical muscle, such as product managers, program managers, business analysts, project managers and product owners.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book covers the inexorable exhaustion of the IPv4 address space, the interim fix to this based on Network Address Translation (NAT) and Private Addresses, and the differences between IPv4 and IPv6. It will help you understand the limitations and problems introduced by the use of NAT and introduce you to the far simpler network and software designs possible, using a larger, unified address space.IPv6, a mature and viable replacement for IPv4, is currently used by more than 36% of all global Internet traffic. Wireless telephone service providers in many countries have migrated their networks to IPv6 with great success. The elimination of NAT and Private Addresses has vastly simplified network design and implementation. Further, there are now enough public addresses allocated to accommodate all anticipated uses for the foreseeable future.Most networking products and software, especially open-source software, are already fully IPv6 compliant. Today, no businessshould purchase obsolete products that support only IPv4. The global IPv6 Forum estimates that there are millions of networking professionals still needing to learn the fundamentals of IPv6 technologies to move forward. This book is for them. With plans in place for a shutdown of IPv4 on global networks ('Sunset IPv4') the time to learn is now. If you want a job in IT, especially network hardware or software, and you don't know IPv6, you are already obsolete.What You Will LearnThis book serves as a guide to all relevant Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards Request for Comments (RFCs), organized by topic and discussed in plain languageUnderstand how IPv6 makes viable technologies such as multicast (for efficient global audio/video streaming), IPsec VPNs (for better security), and simpler VoIPTake 'edge computing' to the limit by eliminating intermediary servers made necessary by IPv4 NAT-for example, making connections directly from my node to yoursDiscover how organizations can introduce IPv6 into existing IPv4 networks ('Dual Stack'), and then eliminate the legacy IPv4 aspects going forward ('Pure IPv6') for the mandates going into place now (for example, US DoD requirements to move all networks to Pure IPv6)Recognize that 5G networking (the Grand Convergence of conventional networks and wireless service) depends heavily on the advanced features IPv6Who This Book Is ForNetworking professionals. Readers should have at least some familiarity with the precursor protocol (IPv4) and legacy TCP/IP based networks. Some knowledge of network models, such as DoD four-layer model or OSI 7-layer model, is helpful to understand where the Internet Protocol fits into the larger picture. For network software developers using the Sockets API (in UNIX, Windows, etc.), this book will help you to understand the extensions to that API needed to work with IPv6.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 440 pp. Englisch.…
