Ultimate Event-Driven Architecture with Python and Apache Kafka - Architect Secure Test and Deploy Event-Driven Applications at Scale Using the Power of Python and Apache Kafka

Gopal Sharma

Summary

Build high-performance, scalable, and resilient systems using Python and Kafka.
Book Description
Python’s simplicity and flexibility, combined with Apache Kafka’s high-throughput, fault-tolerant messaging system, make them a powerful duo for building scalable, event-driven applications. Ultimate Event-Driven Architecture with Python and Apache Kafka brings together these two technologies to help developers and architects design modern, asynchronous systems capable of handling real-time data at scale.
The book begins by introducing the fundamentals of Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), including its core principles, benefits, and real-world relevance. It then explores the essential components of an EDA system, guiding readers through design patterns, message flow, and architectural considerations. Security, testing, and observability are covered in depth to ensure robust and reliable systems.
Later chapters dive into Apache Kafka concepts and demonstrate how to build and deploy practical, real-world solutions using Python. Hands-on examples and a complete use case walk-through ensure that readers can confidently apply what they’ve learned in production scenarios.
Whether you're modernizing legacy systems or architecting from scratch, this book equips you to build event-driven systems that are scalable, resilient, and future-ready. Start your EDA journey with Python and Kafka today!

Butterfly Safari

Andrew Fusek Peters

Andrew Fusek Peters has spent five years travelling around the UK to document and celebrate British butterflies. In Butterfly Safari, he shows butterflies in a new light, capturing close-ups of wing scales and the delicate structure of eggs, eyes and antennae. He has also pioneered never-before-seen flight shots and astonishing aerial sequences. Many of these photos have already appeared in the national papers and magazines. 
 
'With so many of our butterflies in decline, this is a very timely book by one of the country's best photographers. It's a must-have for the bookshelves!' Iolo Williams 
 
'This book captures the glorious beauty and heart-lifting spirit of butterflies better than any other.' Patrick Barkham, author of The Butterfly Isles 
 
'This book acptures the beauty and movement of butterflies like no other. The flight sequences are sublime - they are pure poetry in motion.' Dr Martin Warren, former Chief Executive of Butterfly Conservation

Machine Learning with Python -...

Alexander Cane

Ways to combat retraining depend on the algorithm and consist of the correct values of the trainer's met parameters. In practice, model estimation is not performed on the same input data that was used to train the model. Divide 10-20% of all available data into a separate set and call it a set for evaluation. We will bring the other 10-20% into the set for ratification, and 60-80% of the remaining ones will be given to the trainer. The principle of data sharing depends on the data and the task. Random sampling is often a good method if inputs are independent of each other, and there is no strong imbalance between the number of positive and negative entries.
The intuitive analogy here is the same as with university studies: the teacher solves some problems with students in pairs and gives other’s similar tasks in the exam. What is important here (both in teaching students and models) is that these tasks are varied, and students cannot simply memorize the answers, and those who have mastered the material (similar tasks) will be able to repeat the thought process and answer correctly.
In machine learning, we split into data two sets: we will use the evaluation set to evaluate each model we train, using different approaches, algorithms, and model types to select the best one. That is, for each model, we will have two precision values - precision on the training dataset and precision on the evaluation dataset. It is normal for the former to be higher than the second, but not significantly. A big difference indicates retraining.

Psychiatry - A Very Short...

Tom Burns

Psychiatry is an endlessly controversial endeavor, incorporating emotively-charged questions over the reality of mental illness, the medicalization of everyday life, and the role of nature versus nurture which cause constant discussion today, and on which almost everyone has an opinion.In this Very Short Introduction Tom Burns explores the nature of psychiatry, focusing on what it can and cannot do, and discussing why its history has been beset by dramatic shifts in emphasis and types of treatment. Considering the main disorders that have shaped its practice (such as schizophrenia and manic depression), he analyzes how it differs from (and overlaps with) psychology and psychotherapy. Many of the controversies arise from its dual origin 200 years ago and the separate development of psychiatry with a more 'medical' approach in the asylums, rather than the psychological approach which birthed psychoanalysis and various forms of psychotherapy. Discussing philosophical issues of psychiatry's legitimacy, Burns explores the mistakes psychiatry has made and the blind alleys in its history, before looking forward to the likely changes in its practice with the coming of artificial intelligence and virtual reality.
