Businesses are gathering data today at exponential rates and yet few people know how to access it meaningfully. If you’re a business or IT professional, this short hands-on guide teaches you how to pull and transform data with SQL in significant ways. You will quickly master the fundamentals of SQL and learn how to create your own databases.
Author Thomas Nield provides exercises throughout the book to help you practice your newfound SQL skills at home, without having to use a database server environment. Not only will you learn how to use key SQL statements to find and manipulate your data, but you’ll also discover how to efficiently design and manage databases to meet your needs.
You’ll also learn how to:
<ul>
<li>Explore relational databases, including lightweight and centralized models</li>
<li>Use SQLite and SQLiteStudio to create lightweight databases in minutes</li>
<li>Query and transform data in meaningful ways by using SELECT, WHERE, GROUP BY, and ORDER BY</li>
<li>Join tables to get a more complete view of your business data</li>
<li>Build your own tables and centralized databases by using normalized design principles</li>
<li>Manage data by learning how to INSERT, DELETE, and UPDATE records</li>
</ul>

Build asynchronous, event-based, and concurrent applications with Java and ReactiveXKey Features<ul>
<li>Explore the essential tools and operators in RxJava and understand when to use them</li>
<li>Build scalable and high performing reactive applications with Observables and Subscribers </li>
<li>Implement tools to perform complex tasks such as concurrency and backpressure effectively</li>
</ul>Book DescriptionRxJava is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using Observable sequences for the Java virtual machine (JVM), allowing developers to build robust applications in less time. Learning RxJava covers the fundamentals of reactive programming to help you write reactive code, and introduces you to an effective approach to designing and implementing reactive libraries and applications.
Starting with a brief introduction to reactive programming concepts, you’ll get an overview of Observables and Observers, the core components of RxJava, and how to combine different streams of data and events. You’ll also learn simpler ways to achieve concurrency and maintain high performance without the need for synchronization. As you advance, you’ll be able to implement the backpressure strategy to cope with rapidly producing sources to prevent bottlenecks in your application. Finally, the book delves into custom operators, testing, and debugging, and then moves on to practical examples of using RxJava on Android as well as Kotlin.
By the end of the book, you’ll be able to confidently build asynchronous and responsive applications using RxJava.What you will learn<ul>
<li>Explore RxJava’s reactive types such as Flowable, Single, Maybe, and Completable</li>
<li>Demystify Observables and how they express data and events as sequences</li>
<li>Explore Rx operators that transform, filter, and combine data and event sequences</li>
<li>Use multicasting to push data to multiple destinations and cache and replay them</li>
<li>Discover how concurrency and parallelization work in RxJava and implement complex tasks easily</li>
<li>Build reactive Android applications using RxJava with Kotlin</li>
</ul>Who this book is forIf you’re a Java developer who wants to learn reactive programming and its benefits, this book is for you. You’ll also find this book useful if you want to use RxJava to make your programs more resilient, concurrent, and scalable.Table of Contents<ol>
