Product Description
Enterprise Recipes with Ruby and Rails helps you to overcometypical obstacles hidden in every enterprise’s infrastructure. Itdoesn’t matter if your Rails application needs to access your company’smessage-oriented middleware or if it has to scan through tons of hugeXML documents to get a missing piece of data. Ruby and Rails enable youto create solutions that are both elegant and efficient.
With more than 50 concise, targeted recipes, this book shows you howto use existing infrastructure to develop effectively for theenterprise. For example, Ruby is an excellent language for manipulatingboth textual and binary data. This is enormously useful, becausetypical enterprise software is about storing and processing hugeamounts of data. You’ll learn how to process data in various populardata formats such as XML, CSV, fixed length records, and JSON.
This book covers the whole spectrum of distributed applicationtechnologies, ranging from simple socket-based servers to full-blownService Oriented Architectures. In addition, Ruby is a perfect allywhen you have to integrate with RESTful and SOAP services, or when youhave to access message-oriented middleware. It even helps you to reuseyour existing C/C++, Java, or .NET code with ease.
Since the advent of the Web, many enterprises have opened theirinternal services to the outside world to participate in the rapidlygrowing world of e-commerce. As an enterprise programmer you’d betterlearn how to use existing payment gateways and how to implementsecurity mechanisms to protect your company’s data and your customers’privacy, and this book shows you how.
Enterprise programming is not only about developing huge softwareprojects but also about maintaining and operating them. You’ll save alot of valuable time if you document your software (of course,automatically) and automate tedious and recurring tasks, such asmonitoring your servers and testing your programs. Enterprise Recipes with Ruby and Rails covers these major enterprise concerns, giving you tools and knowledge you’ll turn to over and over.
