This reference volume consists of revised, edited, cross-referenced, and thematically organized articles from Software Diagnostics Institute and Software Diagnostics Library (former Crash Dump Analysis blog) about memory dump analysis, software trace and log analysis, software troubleshooting, and debugging written in November 2010 - October 2011.

With step-by-step instructions and examples, this book will teach you the skills needed to build and deploy complex data pipelines on Kubernetes, resulting in efficient and scalable big data solutions.

We just accept that software is inherently imperfect, that all software must contain bugs, and we design our development processes around that. But what if it were possible to write correct software? What if we could consistently develop clean, maintainable software that works perfectly, all the time? And what if it were cheaper, faster and easier to write correct code than to write the buggy variety? What then? Flawless software, delivered faster.

Manipulating text, managing networks, understanding ownership and permissions, writing programs in BASH shell, and using proxies, VPNs, and wireless networks are all covered. This book will teach you the fundamentals of hacking, including Linux commands and techniques to break into web applications and create your own hacking Linux toolkit.

Learn how to analyze x64 and ARM64 Linux process and kernel crashes and hangs, navigate through core memory dump space and diagnose corruption, memory leaks, CPU spikes, blocked threads, deadlocks, wait chains, and more than 50 memory analysis patterns. The training consists of more than 70 step-by-step exercises using GDB and WinDbg debuggers.

This book is a collection of 28 chapters on SRE concepts such as observability, monitoring, Service Level Objectives (SLOs), alerting, resilience and debugging.
