You'll also receive updates when significant changes are made, new chapters are available, and the final ebook bundle is released.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eServerless computing greatly simplifies software development. Your team can focus solely on your application while the cloud provider manages the servers you need. This practical guide shows you step-by-step how to build and deploy complex applications in a flexible multicloud, multilanguage environment using Apache OpenWhisk. You'll learn how this platform enables you to pursue a vendor-independent approach using preconfigured containers, microservices, and Kubernetes as your cloud operating system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichele Sciabarr  demonstrates how to build a serverless application using classical design patterns and the programming language or languages that best fit your task. You'll start by building a simple serverless application hands-on before diving into the more complex aspects of the OpenWhisk platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamine how OpenWhisk's serverless architecture works, including the use of packages, actions, sequences, triggers, rules, and feeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn how OpenWhisk compares to existing architectures, such as Java Enterprise Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManipulate OpenWhisk features using the command-line interface or a JavaScript API\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign applications using common Gang of Four design patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse architectural design patterns such as model-view-controller to combine several OpenWhisk actions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn how to test and debug your code in a serverless environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e O'Reilly Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/16\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781492046165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.19h x 7.00w x 0.81d","brand":"Sciabarr\u0026#224; Michele","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36653581369500,"sku":"9781492046165","price":59.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_732ff46b-978e-41cf-847f-963131396ecc.jpg?v=1603881963","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/learning-apache-openwhisk-developing-open-serverless-solutions-9781492046165","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
