Build powerful, interactive plugins to implement jQuery in the best way possible using Packt’s new book
Packt is pleased to announce 'jQuery Plugin Development Beginner's Guide', a new book which helps developers use jQuery beyond basics and deliver highly interactive content to their website viewers. Written by Giulio Bai, this book focuses on the practical aspect of design and development and also covers details of some real-life plugins.
jQuery is an open source software which enables developers to create animations, handle events, develop Ajax applications, create plugins etc. Using these facilities, developers can create powerful and dynamic web pages and strike a right balance between size, feature set and ease of use. Plugin codes are created to extend the functionality such as Ajax helpers, webservices, datagrids, dynamic lists etc.
jQuery Plugin Development Beginner's Guide will give readers a thorough knowledge towards buliding plugins as well as speeding up their processes by designing a standard development pattern. It would also providethem with a comprehensive understanding of the working and optimisation of plugins by implementing time-saving designed patterns.
Through this book, readers will learn to develop different types of add-ons, applications of jQuery effects and animations to eventually demonstrate how all of these plugins can be merged into a new, more complex and multi-purpose script. This book also covers most of the common issues encountered when working on web pages and websites.
Anyone who wants to have a better understanding of the dynamics of jQuery when plugins come into play, as well as those who are willing to push jQuery to its limits and develop awesome plugins to use in their websites will find this book an interesting and beneficial read. . This book is out now and is available with Packt. For more information please visit: - https://www.packtpub.com/jquery-plugin-development-beginners-guide/book
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.

Built-in forensics, incident response, and security with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.
Some of key questions to be discussed are:
- What is the “typical” Hadoop cluster and what should be installed on the different machine types?
- Why should you consider the typical workload patterns when making your hardware decisions?
- Are all microservers created equal for Hadoop deployments?
- How do I plan for expansion if I require more compute, memory, storage or networking?
