The need for every professional to have a solid presence on the
Internet is more important than ever before. Having a presence
beyond an email account, such as a custom web page or web
application, usually requires a clumsy assortment of outside
services or hiring a dedicated administrator. Thus it is more
sensible for the average professional to become adept at managing
their own private server. In Set Up and Manage Your Virtual Private
Server, author Jon Westfall expertly designs interesting,
understandable lessons for professionals such as teachers, doctors,
lawyers, and more to deploy their own virtual private server. He
walks you through choosing the right service and customizing it for
your specific business or personal needs, and does this with great
ease while instilling invaluable knowledge. Basics such as setting
up users, managing security and firewalls, installing and updating
software, and troubleshooting by reviewing log files, backing up
data, and so much more. Set Up and Manage Your Virtual Private
Server equips you with the power of knowledge to set your web
presence apart from the rest. You now have complete control over
your virtual brand that is your own-separate from any employer or
affiliate. Your career mobility is in your hands with the ability
to run your own private server at your fingertips. The digital era
centers this technical literacy and independence as a critical
skillset. What You Will Learn Understand basic server terminology
and the way servers operate and are networked together See how
software is used on a server and its role (for example, Linux,
Apache, MySQL, PHP, and so on) Get comfortable with the basic
command-line operation of a virtual private server to set up users,
manage security and firewalls, install software, update software,
and troubleshoot by reviewing log files Store and back up important
information Identify, analyze, and deploy open-source software
products that can enhance productivity Who This Book Is For
Non-tech professionals, individuals who have an established
professional career, looking to understand more about how to set up
and manage a private server.
Get started with an accelerated introduction to the R ecosystem,
programming language, and tools including R script and RStudio.
Utilizing many examples and projects, this book teaches you how to
get data into R and how to work with that data using R. Once
grounded in the fundamentals, the rest of Practical R 4 dives into
specific projects and examples starting with running and analyzing
a survey using R and LimeSurvey. Next, you'll carry out advanced
statistical analysis using R and MouselabWeb. Then, you'll see how
R can work for you without statistics, including how R can be used
to automate data formatting, manipulation, reporting, and custom
functions. The final part of this book discusses using R on a
server; you'll build a script with R that can run an RStudio Server
and monitor a report source for changes to alert the user when
something has changed. This project includes both regular email
alerting and push notification. And, finally, you'll use R to
create a customized daily rundown report of a person's most
important information such as a weather report, daily calendar,
to-do's and more. This demonstrates how to automate such a process
so that every morning, the user navigates to the same web page and
gets the updated report. What You Will Learn Set up and run an R
script, including installation on a new machine and downloading and
configuring R Turn any machine into a powerful data analytics
platform accessible from anywhere with RStudio Server Write basic R
scripts and modify existing scripts to suit your own needs Create
basic HTML reports in R, inserting information as needed Build a
basic R package and distribute it Who This Book Is For Some prior
exposure to statistics, programming, and maybe SAS is recommended
but not required.

Use R 4, RStudio, Tidyverse, and Shiny to interrogate and analyze
your data, and then use the D3 JavaScript library to format and
display that data in an elegant, informative, and interactive way.
You will learn how to gather data effectively, and also how to
understand the philosophy and implementation of each type of chart,
so as to be able to represent the results visually. With the
popularity of the R language, the art and practice of creating data
visualizations is no longer the preserve of mathematicians,
statisticians, or cartographers. As technology leaders, we can
gather metrics around what we do and use data visualizations to
communicate that information. Pro Data Visualization Using R and
JavaScript combines the power of the R language with the simplicity
and familiarity of JavaScript to display clear and informative data
visualizations. Gathering and analyzing empirical data is the key
to truly understanding anything. We can track operational metrics
to quantify the health of our products in production. We can track
quality metrics of our projects, and even use our data to identify
bad code. Visualizing this data allows anyone to read our analysis
and easily get a deep understanding of the story the data tells.
This book makes the R language approachable, and promotes the idea
of data gathering and analysis mostly using web interfaces. What
You Will Learn Carry out data visualization using R and JavaScript
Use RStudio for data visualization Harness Tidyverse data pipelines
Apply D3 and R Notebooks towards your data Work with the R Plumber
API generator, Shiny, and more Who This Book Is For Programmers and
data scientists/analysts who have some prior experience with R and
JavaScript.
