Web scalability for startup engineers : tips & techniques for scaling your Web application
\"Design and build scalable web applications quickly.This is an invaluable roadmap for meeting the rapid demand to deliver scalable applications in a startup environment. With a focus on core concepts and best practices rather than on individual languages, platforms, or technologies, Web Scalability for Startup Engineers describes how infrastructure and software architecture work together to support a scalable environment.You'll learn, step by step, how scalable systems work and how to solve common challenges. Helpful diagrams are included throughout, and real-world examples illustrate the concepts presented. Even if you have limited time and resources, you can successfully develop and deliver robust, scalable web applications with help from this practical guide. Learn the key principles of good software design required for scalable systems. Build the front-end layer to sustain the highest levels of concurrency and request rates. Design and develop web services, including REST-ful APIs. Enable a horizontally scalable data layer. Implement caching best practices. Leverage asynchronous processing, messaging, and event-driven architecture. Structure, index, and store data for optimized search. Explore other aspects of scalability, such as automation, project management, and agile teams\"-- Provided by publisher.

Carbon Nanotubes in Cement—A New Approach for Building Composites and Its Influence on Environmental Effect of Material
An addition of carbon nanostructures to cement paste is problematic due to the difficulties in obtaining homogenous mixtures. The paper reports on a more effective way of mixing carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-COOH) in cement pastes. The additional biological impact of the studied nanomodified cement was analyzed in the case of two moss species’ vitality. The applied approach of obtaining a homogeneous mixture is based on intense mechanochemical mixing of MWCNT-COOH together with polycarboxylate superplasticizer (SP). As a result, a more homogenous suspension of MWCNT-COOH within a liquid superplasticizer, suitable for addition to hydrophilic cement paste, was obtained. FT-IR/Raman spectroscopy was used for materials’ characterization. To explain the mixing process at the molecular level, systematic theoretical studies using density functional theory (DFT) were performed. The structures, interaction energies and IR/Raman vibrational spectra of model carboxylic acids, mixed with functionalized SWCNTs as simplified models of real MWCNTs, were obtained. Due to the controversial opinions on the environmental hazards of carbon nanostructures, additional in vivo studies were performed. In this case, effects of cement modified by the addition of small amounts of MWCNT-COOH with SP in comparison to the composite without carbon nanostructures and control subsoil on the vitality of mosses Polytrichum formosum and Pseudoscleropodium purum were studied.
