Build scalable ETL data pipelines in the cloud using Azure Data Factory's Mapping Data Flows. Each chapter of this book addresses different aspects of an end-to-end data pipeline that includes repeatable design patterns based on best practices using ADF's code-free data transformation design tools. The book shows data engineers how to take raw business data at cloud scale and turn that data into business value by organizing and transforming the data for use in data science projects and analytics systems. The book begins with an introduction to Azure Data Factory followed by an introduction to its Mapping Data Flows feature set. Subsequent chapters show how to build your first pipeline and corresponding data flow, implement common design patterns, and operationalize your result. By the end of the book, you will be able to apply what you've learned to your complex data integration and ETL projects in Azure. These projects will enable cloud-scale big analytics and data loading and transformation best practices for data warehouses.What You Will LearnBuild scalable ETL jobs in Azure without writing codeTransform big data for data quality and data modeling requirementsUnderstand the different aspects of Azure Data Factory ETL pipelines from datasets and Linked Services to Mapping Data FlowsApply best practices for designing and managing complex ETL data pipelines in Azure Data FactoryAdd cloud-based ETL patterns to your set of data engineering skillsBuild repeatable code-free ETL design patternsWho This Book Is ForData engineers who are new to building complex data transformation pipelines in the cloud with Azure; and  data engineers who need ETL solutions that scale to match swiftly growing volumes of data

After decades of relative obscurity, functional programming is finally coming into its own. With concise, easy-to-read code that supports asynchronous, concurrent processing, aspects of functional programming have begun to appear in several traditionally object-oriented languages such as C# and Java. This practical book shows C# programmers how to use functional programming features without having to navigate an entirely new language. Because of the shared runtime environment common to C# and F# languages, it's possible to use most of F#'s functional features in C# as well. Author Simon J. Painter explains how you can write functional code in C# right away, without having to install dependencies or features newer than .NET 3. You'll learn why functional programming concepts can bring immediate benefit to your work. Learn what functional programming is and how it originated Discover features of the functional paradigm using a more familiar language Start coding functionally in C# right away, without relying on third-party libraries Write code that's more robust, less error prone, and easier to test Examine less conventional ways to look at structures available in C# Explore the practicalities of using functional C# in a business environment.

Take a concise approach to learning how DAX, the function language of Power BI and PowerPivot, works. This book focuses on explaining the core concepts of DAX so that ordinary folks can gain the skills required to tackle complex data analysis problems. But make no mistake, this is in no way an introductory book on DAX. A number of the topics you will learn, such as the concepts of context transition and table expansion, are considered advanced and challenging areas of DAX.While there are numerous resources on DAX, most are written with developers in mind, making learning DAX appear an overwhelming challenge, especially for those who are coming from an Excel background or with limited coding experience. The reality is, to hit the ground running with DAX, it's not necessary to wade through copious pages on rarified DAX functions and the technical aspects of the language. There are just a few mandatory concepts that must be fully understood before DAX can be mastered. Knowledge of everything else in DAX is built on top of these mandatory aspects. Author Alison Box has been teaching and working with DAX for over eight years, starting with DAX for PowerPivot, the Excel add-in, before moving into the Power BI platform. The guide you hold in your hands is an outcome of these years of experience explaining difficult concepts in a way that people can understand. Over the years she has refined her approach, distilling down the truth of DAX which is "e;you can take people through as many functions as you like, but it's to no avail if they don't truly understand how it all works."e; You will learn to use DAX to gain powerful insights into your data by generating complex and challenging business intelligence calculations including, but not limited to:Calculations to control the filtering of information to gain better insight into the data that matters to youCalculations across dates such as comparing data for the same period last year or the previous periodFinding rolling averages and rolling totalsComparing data against targets and KPIs or against average and maximum valuesUsing basket analysis, such as "e;of customers who bought product X who also bought product Y"e;Using "e;what if"e; analysis and scenariosFinding "e;like for like"e; salesDynamically showing TopN/BottomN percent of customers or products by salesFinding new and returning customers or sales regions in each month or each year Who This Book Is ForExcel users and non-technical users of varying levels of ability or anyone who wants to learn DAX for Power BI but lacks the confidence to do so

This book provides a concise guide to the kind of customization programmers can achieve with AutoCAD 2006. It demonstrates how to use AutoCAD through short code examples wr- ten in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). It also includes a complete quick reference that lists all the events, methods, and properties available with AutoCAD. Finally, it describes all the constants and system variables. What Is AutoCAD? So, what is AutoCAD? First released in 1982 under the name MicroCAD, AutoCAD has become a powerful tool for drafting and design purposes. AutoCAD 2006 incorporates many new features to enhance flexibility and drawing control. To reflect this extra functionality, many new ActiveX objects, properties, methods, and events have been included for improved programmability. What Is This Book About? This book is about AutoCAD 2006 and how to use AutoCAD VBA in your applications to h- dle all your drawing tasks more efficiently. It shows you how to programmatically control the creation and editing of individual drawing objects, manipulate linetypes and layers, control text and dimension styles, and do much more. As you encounter each of these topics, you'll learn all about the associated objects, including their properties, methods, and events. By interfacing with AutoCAD, you can exploit all of AutoCAD's functionality that would have taken you a long time to write yourself. This book will first help you learn how to use this functionality. Then it will become a handy reference later, when you have a question that you just can't answer.
