Gain the knowledge you need to Identify and understand animal
parasites! Diagnostic Parasitology for Veterinary Technicians, 6th
Edition features clear and concise discussions of the most commonly
encountered internal and external parasites. Chapters are organized
by parasite group - including nematodes, cestodes, trematodes,
protozoans, arthropods, and leeches - and include a detailed
description of the group, with special emphasis on morphology, life
cycle, and important parasites. Then in each chapter, material is
conveniently organized by host species: dogs, cats, horses,
ruminants, swine, birds, lab animals, fish, and reptiles. Written
by educators Charles M. Hendrix and Ed Robinson, this full-color,
spiral-bound book provides the skills that veterinary technicians
need to collect samples, perform lab procedures, and communicate
with clients. More than 300 full-color photos help you learn to
recognize parasites and parasitic diseases in lab samples. Logical
organization of chapters begins with an overview of external
parasites, internal parasites, and nematodes, followed by chapters
that go into detail of the parasites by host species. Step-by-step
guidelines are provided for gathering samples and performing lab
procedures, with clear instructions about how to perform the
different laboratory techniques used in identifying parasites.
Emphasis on life cycles along with high-quality life cycle drawings
help you learn to communicate prevention and control strategies to
clients. Case studies provide the opportunity to apply what you
have learned. Review tools ensure that you master parasitology with
all-new multiple-choice questions and VTNE prep questions, as well
as matching exercises and questions for thought and discussion at
the end of each chapter. Technician's Note boxes call out important
points for vet techs to remember. Coverage of exotics includes
detailed images and discussions of the parasites that affect them.
Parasites by Host Species tables summarize the many ways of
categorizing parasites, cross referencing such categories as body
systems affected, taxonomic grouping, host species, and location in
host. NEW! Thorough updates are included throughout the book,
providing the most current coverage of the parasites most often
seen in veterinary practice. NEW! New information on hookworm and
heartworm resistance is added to this edition. NEW! How to Talk to
Clients boxes prepare you to answer vital customer questions
regarding the most common zoonotic diseases, including scabies,
hookworm, heartworm, toxoplasmosis, and more.
Learn to implement container orchestration on AWS with ease Key
Features Leverage the power of Kubernetes on AWS to deploy highly
scalable applications Provision Kubernetes clusters on Amazon EC2
environments Implement best practices to improve efficiency and
security of Kubernetes on the cloud Book DescriptionDocker
containers promise to radicalize the way developers and operations
build, deploy, and manage applications running on the cloud.
Kubernetes provides the orchestration tools you need to realize
that promise in production. Kubernetes on AWS guides you in
deploying a production-ready Kubernetes cluster on the AWS
platform. You will then discover how to utilize the power of
Kubernetes, which is one of the fastest growing platforms for
production-based container orchestration, to manage and update your
applications. Kubernetes is becoming the go-to choice for
production-grade deployments of cloud-native applications. This
book covers Kubernetes from first principles. You will start by
learning about Kubernetes' powerful abstractions - Pods and
Services - that make managing container deployments easy. This will
be followed by a guided tour through setting up a production-ready
Kubernetes cluster on AWS, while learning the techniques you need
to successfully deploy and manage your own applications. By the end
of the book, you will have gained plenty of hands-on experience
with Kubernetes on Amazon Web Services. You will also have picked
up some tips on deploying and managing applications, keeping your
cluster and applications secure, and ensuring that your whole
system is reliable and resilient to failure. What you will learn
Learn how to provision a production-ready Kubernetes cluster on AWS
Deploy your own applications to Kubernetes with Helm Discover
strategies for troubleshooting your cluster and know where to find
help with issues Explore the best ways to monitor your cluster and
the applications running on it Supercharge your cluster by
integrating it with the tools provided by the AWS platform
Architect your cluster for high availability Who this book is forIf
you're a cloud engineer, cloud solution provider, sysadmin, site
reliability engineer, or developer with an interest in DevOps and
are looking for an extensive guide to running Kubernetes in the AWS
environment, this book is for you. Though any previous knowledge of
Kubernetes is not expected, some experience with Linux and Docker
containers would be a bonus.
