Book Description:
'A must have title for the well-rounded Ruby programmer building advanced Rails applications and large systems!' OBIE FERNANDEZ, Series Editor Complete, Hands-On Guide to Building Advanced Distributed Applications with Ruby Distributed programming techniques make applications easier to scale, develop, and deploy-especially in emerging cloud computing environments. Now, one of the Ruby community's leading experts has written the first definitive guide to distributed programming with Ruby. Mark Bates begins with a simple distributed application, and then walks through an increasingly complex series of examples, demonstrating solutions to the most common distributed programming problems. Bates presents the industry's most useful coverage of Ruby's standard distributed programming libraries, DRb and Rinda. Next, he introduces powerful third-party tools, frameworks, and libraries designed to simplify Ruby distributed programming, including his own Distribunaut. If you're an experienced Ruby programmer or architect, this hands-on tutorial and practical reference will help you meet any distributed programming challenge, no matter how complex. Coverage includes Writing robust, secure, and interactive applications using DRb-and managing its drawbacks Using Rinda to build applications with improved flexibility, fault tolerance, and service discovery Simplifying DRb service management with RingyDingy Utilizing Starfish to facilitate communication between distributed programs and to write MapReduce functions for processing large data sets Using Politics to customize the processes running on individual server instances in a cloud computing environment Providing reliable distributed queuing with the low-overhead Starling messaging server Implementing comprehensive enterprise messaging with RabbitMQ and Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) Offloading heavyweight tasks with BackgrounDRb and DelayedJob
Distributed and Parallel Computing with Ruby
Learn from legendary Japanese Ruby hacker Masatoshi Seki in this first English-language book on his own Distributed Ruby library. You'll find out about distributed computing, advanced Ruby concepts and techniques, and the philosophy of the Ruby way---straight from the source. dRuby has been part of the Ruby standard library for more than a decade, yet few know the true power of the gem. Completely written in Ruby, dRuby enables you to communicate between distributed Ruby processes as if there were no boundaries between processes. This is one of the few books that covers distributed and parallel programming for Ruby developers.The dRuby Book has been completely updated and expanded from its Japanese version, with three new chapters written by Masatosh...
Advanced Techniques for Building Distributed Applications
The leading guide for Java developers who build business applications with CORBAAcknowledged experts present advanced techniques and real-world examples for building both simple and complex programs using Java with CORBA. The authors begin with a quick overview of CORBA, Java, object request brokers (ORBs), and EJB components, then quickly move on to show how to use them to build complete Java applications. This new volume features in-depth code examples, as well as expanded coverage of cutting-edge topics, including Portable Object Adaptor (POA), Remote Method Invocation (RMI) over IIOP, and EJB....
