Following the same approach as Microsoft PressGÇÖs widely-praised Microsoft Azure Sentinel and Microsoft Azure Security Center, the authors begin with a thoughtful overview of the network security domain and its importance in the cloud. Next, they present detailed chapters on cloud-native solutions for firewalling, DDOS, WAF, and other services, showing how cloud professionals can successfully deploy them within a best practice architecture. Next, they walk through integrating key third parties, successfully monitoring network security services, and combining all components in a cohesive, GÇ£wholisticGÇ¥ network security strategy that can serve as the basis for security and compliance for years to come. No matter how large, small, simple, or complex your Azure environment is, Microsoft Azure Network Security will help you protect what matters most.

As games grow more complex and gamers expectations soar, the discipline of game systems design becomes ever more important. Game systems designers plan a games rules and balance, its characters attributes, most of its data, and how its AI, weapons, and objects work and interact. Introduction to Game Systems Design is the first complete beginners guide to this crucial discipline. Writing for all aspiring game professionals, even those with absolutely no experience, leading game designer and instructor Dax Gazaway presents a step-by-step, hands-on approach to designing game systems with industry-standard tools. Drawing on his experience building AAA-level game systems (including games in the Star Wars and Marvel franchises), Gazaway covers all this, and more: Exploring the essentials of game design and its emerging subdisciplines Asking the essential questions at the heart of all design Getting started with modern game system design tools, including the spreadsheets most professionals now use Creating systems and data from a blank page Populating and quantifying a world of data into a game Tuning and balancing game systems Testing game systems and data Leveraging communication, psychology, and rewards within your games Balancing game probability within systems

Building great software requires outstanding teamwork across multiple disciplines. All teams and participants need to align behind clear goals that deliver real value (outcomes)not just lots of features (output). Sprint Goals are the most powerful tool Scrum/Agile teams have to pursue high-value outcomes, but many Scrum Teams avoid them, misuse them, or struggle to apply them. Succeeding with Sprint Goals covers all you need to define, create, and execute on sprint goals that deliver outstanding value to customers and the business.Leading Scrum practitioner Maarten Dalmijn bridges the gap between theory and practice, offering a fresh, unique, and cohesive perspective on the Scrum framework that will be valuable to every product owner, product manager, Scrum Master, agile coach, and technology executive. Students will learn why Sprint Goals are so important, how to use them throughout the sprint and at review and retrospective; how to overcome common obstacles to success; and how to use them to build high-performing teams.As Dalmijn presents critical Scrum and product management fundamentals through the lens of the Sprint Goal, he helps you move your entire organization from low-value "feature factories" to high-value outcomes.

This book identifies the deeper problemGÇöhow software architects and designers approach coupling GÇô and introduces an important new approach for creating more successful designs whether you use microservices or not. Instead of blindly avoiding coupling, leading software architecture expert Vladik (Vlad) Khononov proposes a novel method that transforms it into a powerful design tool: GÇ£balanced multi-dimensional coupling.GÇ¥ Khononov begins by surveying existing methods of evaluating coupling, and illuminating their strengths and limitations in the context of modern distributed systems. Next, he introduces a new multi-dimensional coupling model, and demonstrates how to harness it to build modular software. Instead of focusing solely on a single approach, Balancing Coupling in Software Design illuminates underlying design principles that are ubiquitous in SOA, microservices, DDD, design patterns, and other paradigms, revealing how each of them can fail if thoughtful design principles for coupling are neglectedGÇöand how balanced coupling can make all of them work more effectively.

A Designer's Guide to Creating Realistic 3D Experiences For Extended Reality Designing Immersive 3D Experiences helps visual design students move into the fast-growing fields of 3D and extended reality (XR) design. Author Ren+¬e Stevens (Powered by Design) introduces a proven approach and an effective design-thinking process they can use to create successful immersive user experiences. The book is grounded in familiar design principles and explores how students can build on these foundations, adapting them for virtual and augmented reality environments. Designing Immersive 3D Experiences prepares visual design students for success with 3D and XR design in multiple environments, from mobile, to web, to wearables. This book begins by exploring the basics of XR and 3D immersive design, how they are evolving, and how students may already be using them. It then moves into core concepts and technologies, from computer-human interaction, to spatial computing, to projection mapping and head-mounted displays.
