Writing Apps the Google-y Way
Google App Engine is a framework that lets you build web apps on top of Google’s scalable hosting and data storage infrastructure. When you start building an app on App Engine, you soon realize that you do things differently from the way you made apps for more "traditional" hosting setups, because of our scalability-oriented design. In this talk, we’ll give an overview of App Engine, and then look at how you would handle things like offline processing, geographic queries, or storing files, and how you would design real world apps like a microblogging service or social network site.

Keywords: AppEngine, Scalability, Architecture, Java, Python, CloudComputing, GoogleAPI , Experience, Web 2.0

Target Audience: Developers who are building App Engine apps or thinking of using App Engine for an upcoming project, and who want to learn how they might architect the backend for their application to work best on top of Google’s hosting infrastructure.

Pro Oracle Application Express (Expert’s Voice in Oracle)

  • ISBN13: 9781590598276
  • Condition: USED – Like New
  • Notes: BUY WITH CONFIDENCE, Over one million books sold! 98% Positive feedback. Compare our books, prices and service to the competition. 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed

Application Express, or APEX, is one of the most innovative products to come out of Oracle in years. APEX is an application development framework for developing database–backed applications. It’s easy enough to get started in that power users can quit storing data in random spreadsheets and instead centralize their data in the powerful Oracle database, all without developer help. Developers arent left out, however. Those who choose to can go deep and leverage the full power and flexibility of Oracles database engine.

Getting started with APEX is easy. Learning how to take full advantage of APEX is the problem. It was the problem, that is, until this book came along. In Pro Oracle Application Express, authors John Scott and Scott Spendolini open the “hood” of APEX and expose the full power behind its easy–to–use GUI interface. They show you what you need to know to produce powerful, professionally polished applications, things such as user-authentication models, approaches to layout and navigation, how to integrate Ajax, how to deal with localization issues such as time zones and translations, how to customize the look and feel of an APEX web site, and much, much more.

The authors are well–qualified to write on APEX. John Scott runs ShellPrompt, a hosting service that handles many large-scale APEX applications, some of which he is paid to develop. John is a hard–core APEX developer. His coauthor, Scott Spendolini, is one of the original creators of APEX. Both John and Scott now base their fulltime careers on developing APEX applications. Pro Oracle APEX is your opportunity to learn APEX from the very best.

Question by Kris K: I am looking for an open source web application that I can use to host regular size comic books I create.?
I have tried the WordPress theme / plugin called “ComicPress” but I don’t like it. It’s not very user friendly or intuitive from my perspective. I want something simple and easily customizable. What else is out there? (Note: it doesn’t have to be a wordpress plugin, I’ll take raw PHP files too if I have to)

Best answer:

Answer by AIT-pro.com
My first thought was to use Flash. Take a look at what Marvel Comics is doing >>> http://marvel.com/digitalcomics/ They are on the right track, but the Flash work is pretty bad. The concept though is a winner.

It appears this is a PHP Joomla base platform, but it is a hybrid meaning custom coding has been done to modify the original “out of the box” template(s). The base platform you choose for any website design is not relevant to the visual appearance because you can create an identical visual appearance on any website platform or coding ie HTML, PHP, CFM, ASP etc etc etc. The visual appearance of any website is just the “skin”. So with that said, since WordPress is the #1 ranked CMS website platform currently available, WordPress should be used as the core website platform. Joomla is good, but WordPress is a better CMS platform in my professional opinion.

So assuming you build on the WordPress platform you can use the Kimili Flash Embed WordPress plugin to embed the regular size com Flash Comic books within the pages or you could have the Flash load independent of the WordPress pages similar to what Marvel is doing.

Another even more simple option would be to just install a Flash gallery plugin like the WordPress Flash Photo Gallery plugin. This of course would not be as cool looking as a custom coding thing, but it would be a no brainer quick way to display your comic books.

In my professional opinion to get the biggest visual impact I would create custom WordPress template pages, use the Kimili Flash Embed WordPress plugin to embed the Flash and then either find an open source free Flash gallery that serves your purposes or create the custom Flash Comic Book movie yourself in Flash. Full Flash websites do not do well SEO wise so that is why you would build on the WordPress platform and not just build a Flash website.

So if you want simple and easy you are going to have to settle for something that is probably not going to be perfect or exactly what you want. You may get lucky though and find all the pre-made free stuff you want out there that you can piece together to get the look you want. Good luck.

Setting Up LAMP: Getting Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP Working Together

You could think of Setting Up LAMP as four books in one, but it’s actually something much more valuable: a single volume that presents the open-source technologies known collectively as LAMP—Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP—as tightly dovetailed components of today’s most affordable and effective platform for building dynamic web-based applications.

Each technology has uses outside of this context, of course, but within it they form something greater than the sum of their parts. This book shows you how to take full advantage of this power, walking you through all the steps required to lay your Linux foundation, install and configure your Apache web server, and then begin using PHP to access content stored in MySQL. Here are a few of the specific topics you’ll find covered inside:

  • Installing and configuring qmail with support for IMAP, POP3, SMTP, virtual domains, spam filtering, and antivirus
  • Managing system users and groups
  • Configuring your network
  • Creating a custom firewall script using IP tables
  • Recognizing when a system is in distress
  • Handling MySQL database replication
  • Configuring virtual domains
  • Writing a basic PHP script that integrates with MySQL

If you’re new to all of this, you’ll quickly get to where you need to be to start developing and deploying the higher-level pieces of your web application. Even if you have experience with one or all of these technologies, this book—including its quick-start installation appendix—is a resource you’ll want close by whenever you’re setting up or fine-tuning your LAMP system.
