Learn to use the APIs and frameworks for parallel and concurrent applications in Haskell. This book will show you how to exploit multicore processors with the help of parallelism in order to increase the performance of your applications. Practical Concurrent Haskell teaches you how concurrency enables you to write programs using threads for multiple interactions. After accomplishing this, you will be ready to make your move into application development and portability with applications in cloud computing and big data. You'll use MapReduce and other, similar big data tools as part of your Haskell big data applications development. What You'll Learn Program with Haskell Harness concurrency to Haskell Apply Haskell to big data and cloud computing applications Use Haskell concurrency design patterns in big data Accomplish iterative data processing on big data using Haskell Use MapReduce and work with Haskell on large clusters Who This Book Is For Those with at least some prior experience with Haskell and some prior experience with big data in another programming language such as Java, C#, Python, or C++.

This condensed code and syntax reference presents the essential Haskell syntax in a well-organized format that can be used as a quick and handy reference, including applications to cloud computing and data analysis. This book covers the functional programming features of Haskell as well as strong static typing, lazy evaluation, extensive parallelism, and concurrency You won't find any technical jargon, bloated samples, drawn out history lessons, or witty stories in this book. What you will find is a language reference that is concise, to the point and highly accessible. The Haskell Quick Syntax Reference is packed with useful information and is a must-have for any Haskell programmer working in big data, data science, and cloud computing. What You Will Learn Quickly and effectively use the Haskell programming language Take advantage of strong static typing Work with lazy evaluations Harness concurrency and extensive parallelism using Haskell Who This Book Is For Experienced programmers who may be new to Haskell or have experience with Haskell and who just want a quick reference guide on it.
