Companies everywhere are moving everyday business processes over to
the cloud, and AI is increasingly being given the reins in these
tasks. As this massive digital transformation continues, the
combination of serverless computing and AI promises to become the
de facto standard for business-to-consumer platform development-and
developers who can design, develop, implement, and maintain these
systems will be in high demand! AI as a Service is a practical
handbook to building and implementing serverless AI applications,
without bogging you down with a lot of theory. Instead, you'll find
easy-to-digest instruction and two complete hands-on serverless AI
builds in this must-have guide! Key features Cloud AI from
development to production Applying cloud AI services to your
existing platform Understanding orchestration patterns for cloud AI
systems How to architect and build scalable, resilient data
pipelines Audience For software developers with intermediate skills
in at least one programming language and a basic understanding of
IP networking and HTTP protocol. About the technology Artificial
Intelligence (AI), a machine's ability to learn and make
predictions based on patterns it identifies, is already being
leveraged by businesses around the world in areas like targeted
product recommendations, financial forecasting and resource
planning, customer service chatbots, healthcare diagnostics, data
security, and more. Peter Elger is the founder and CEO of
fourTheorem, a software solutions company providing expertise on
architecture, development, DevOps, and machine learning. He is also
the cofounder and CTO of two other companies: nearForm, a Node.js
consultancy, and StitcherAds, a digital advertising platform. He is
a regular conference speaker and coauthor of The Node Cookbook as
well as several academic papers. Eoin Shanaghy is the cofounder and
CTO fourTheorem and the founder of Showpiper, a machine
learning-driven video content marketing startup. He previously
created real-time trading applications for Fortis Bank and
developed Hewlett-Packard's enterprise application server as well
as 3G network management systems for Ericsson and Arantech (now
Netscout). Johannes Ahlmann is the founder and CEO of Sensatus.io,
a Machine Learning company specialized in large-scale Web Crawling,
Market Intelligence and On-Premise AI solutions. He previously
created Information Extraction solutions as Head of Data Science at
ScrapingHub, and created responsive mobile solutions at Dell EMC.
Over 60 high-quality recipes covering debugging, security,
performance, microservices, web frameworks, databases, deployment
and more; rewritten for Node.js 8, Node.js 6, and Node.js 4 About
This Book * Actionable recipes across the full spectrum of Node.js
development * Cutting edge techniques and tools for measuring and
improving performance * Best practices for creating
readily-scalable production systems Who This Book Is For If you
have good knowledge of JavaScript and want to build fast,
efficient, scalable client-server solutions, then this book is for
you. Some experience with Node.js is assumed to get the most out of
this book. If working from a beginner level Node Cookbook 2nd
Edition is recommended as a primer for Node Cookbook 3rd Edition.
What You Will Learn * Debug Node.js programs * Write and publish
your own Node.js modules * Detailed coverage of Node.js core API's
* Use web frameworks such as Express, Hapi and Koa for accelerated
web application development * Apply Node.js streams for
low-footprint data processing * Fast-track performance knowledge
and optimization abilities * Persistence strategies, including
database integrations with MongoDB, MySQL/MariaDB, Postgres, Redis,
and LevelDB * Apply critical, essential security concepts * Use
Node with best-of-breed deployment technologies: Docker, Kubernetes
and AWS In Detail Today's web demands efficient real-time
applications and scalability. Asynchronous event-driven programming
is ideal for this, and this is where Node.js comes in. Server-side
JavaScript has been here since the 90s, but Node got it right. With
Node for tooling and server-side logic, and a browser-based
client-side UI, everything is JavaScript. This leads to rapid,
fluid development cycles. The full-stack, single language
experience means less context-switching between languages for
developers, architects and whole teams. This book shows you how to
build fast, efficient, and scalable client-server solutions using
the latest versions of Node. The book begins with debugging tips
and tricks of the trade, and how to write your own modules. Then
you'll learn the fundamentals of streams in Node.js, discover I/O
control, and how to implement the different web protocols. You'll
find recipes for integrating databases such as MongoDB,
MySQL/MariaDB, Postgres, Redis, and LevelDB. We also cover the
options for building web application with Express, Hapi and Koa.
You will then learn about security essentials in Node.js and
advanced optimization tools and techniques. By the end of the book
you will have acquired the level of expertise to build
production-ready and scalable Node.js systems. The techniques and
skills you will learn in this book are based on the best practices
developed by nearForm, one of the leaders in Node implementations,
who supported the work of the authors on this book. Style and
approach This recipe-based practical guide presents each topic with
step-by-step instructions on how you can create fast and efficient
server side applications using the latest features and capabilities
in Node 8 whilst also supporting usage with Node 4 and 6.
