Sinopsis

Before exploring FileMaker Pro 8, you must understand what a database is. A database is an organized collection of information, usually with one central topic. In a computer database (as opposed to a paper database), the program that you use to enter and manipulate the data is either a database program or a database management system (DBMS).
 

The word organized is a key part of this definition. Otherwise, a shoebox stuffed with business receipts might be considered a database. In general, if you must look at every scrap of data until you find the one for which you’re searching, you don’t have a database. You just have a shoebox full of stuff.

Download PDF MySQL®/PHP Database Applications, Second Edition by Brad Bulger, Jay Greenspan, and David Wall

Sinopsis

Soon we will head off on a fabulous journey, a journey on which we will explore the ins and outs of MySQL and PHP database applications in great detail. It’s goingto be a fun trip; we just know it.
 

Okay, maybe we’re being a bit optimistic. If you’re anything like us, points of this particular journey will be a lot more tedious than they are exciting. Let’s face facts: Application development isn’t always the most exciting thing in the world. And as with any other venture that involves programming, some very frustrating times are sure to be ahead, whether because of a syntax error you can’t find or a piece of code that won’t do what you think it ought to do. But despite all that, here you are, and we think there is a very good reason for that.
 

Web applications are the present and the future. No matter your background, whether you have a history with Visual Basic or COBOL, or maybe just some HTML and JavaScript, your résumé is only going to improve with some Web application development experience. We don’t think there’s a better combination of tools to have under your belt than PHP and MySQL. The numbers bear us out. PHP and MySQL are becoming increasingly popular, and the demand for people who can use these tools will only increase.
 

A bit later in this introduction we go into a more detailed explanation of why you should use PHP and MySQL. However, before we can get to that, we want take a bit of time to go over the architecture of Web applications. Once we’ve done this, we can explain in detail why PHP and MySQL should be the centerpieces of your application-development environment. Once we’ve sold you on these tools, we present
a very quick and grossly under-coded application. As you look over this application, you can see the basic syntax and principles behind PHP and MySQL.

Download PDF Enterprise Android™ PROGRAMMING ANDROID DATABASE APPLICATIONS FOR THE ENTERPRISE by Zigurd Mednieks

Sinopsis

Almost all applications and all system services in Android are coded in Java (and other JVM languages). Code is compiled to Java bytecode before being translated into Dalvik bytecode, which, in turn, runs in the Android managed runtime environment. These characteristics make Android at once familiar and strange: If you have used Java or a similar managed language before, you will find Android code fairly easy to read. You will fi nd the tools for Android programming familiar. Many aspects of Android’s managed language run time are identical to Java. Android relies on Java base classes, and wouldn’t work if the semantics of the Android runtime environment were not very similar to those of a standard Java runtime environment.

If you come to this book not having written Android-specifi c code, you have probably never written code for an operating system like Android. Android uses managed language runtime concepts in ways you may fi nd unfamiliar, especially in the ways Android implements modularity and memory management. In many ways, Android is the most sophisticated environment for interactive Java programs ever created.

Sinopsis

Imagine trying to operate a business without knowing who your customers are, what products you are selling, who is working for you, who owes you money, and to whom you owe money. All businesses have to keep this type of data and much more; just as importantly, they must have those data available to decision makers when necessary. It can be argued that the ultimate purpose of all business information systems is to help businesses use information as an organizational resource. At the heart of all of these systems are the collection, storage, aggregation, manipulation, dissemination, and management of data.Depending on the type of information system and the characteristics of the business, these data could vary from a few megabytes on just one or two topics to terabytes covering hundreds of topics within the business’s internal and external environment. Telecommunications companies such as Sprint and AT&T are known to have systems that keep data on trillions of phone calls, with new data being added to the system at speeds up to 70,000 calls per second!¹ Not only do these companies have to store and manage immense collections of data, they have to be able to find any given fact in that data quickly. Consider the case of Internet search staple Google. While Google is reluctant to disclose many details about its data storage specifications, it is estimated that the company responds to over 91 million searches per day across a collection of data that is several terabytes in size. Impressively, the results of these searches are available almost instantly.

How can these businesses process this much data? How can they store it all, and then quickly retrieve just the facts that decision makers want to know, just when they want to know it? The answer is that they use databases. Databases, as explained in detail throughout this book, are specialized structures that allow computer-based systems to store, manage, and retrieve data very quickly. Virtually all modern business systems rely on databases; therefore, a good understanding of how these structures are created and their proper use is vital for any information systems professional. Even if your career does not take you down the amazing path of database design and development, databases will be a key component underpinning the systems that you use. In any case, you will probably make decisions in your career based on information generated from data. Thus, it is important that you know the difference between data and information.

Content

• What a database is, the various types of databases, and why they are valuable assets for decision making
• The importance of database design
•  How modern databases evolved from file systems
•  About flaws in file system data management
•  The main components of the database system
•  The main functions of a database management system (DBMS)

Download Data Driven Security- Analysis, Visualization and Dashboards - Jay Jacobs

Sinopsis

In recent years, cybersecurity has taken center stage in the personal and professional lives of the majority of the global population. Data breaches are a daily occurrence, and intelligent adversaries target consumers, corporations, and governments with practically no fear of being detected or facing consequences for their actions. This is all occurring while the systems, networks, and applications that comprise the backbones of commerce and critical infrastructure are growing ever more complex, interconnected, and unwieldy. Defenses built solely on the elements of faith-based security—unaided intuition and “best” practices— are no longer sufficient to protect us. The era of the security shaman is rapidly fading, and it’s time to adopt the proven tools and techniques being used in other disciplines to take an evolutionary step into Data-Driven Security.

1. The journey to data driven security
2. Building to analytics toolbox : a prime on using R and Python for security analysis
