Java™ developers are accustomed to handling errors by throwing and catching exceptions, which doesn't match the functional paradigm. This Functional thinking installment investigates ways to indicate Java errors functionally while still preserving type safety, shows how to wrap checked exceptions with functional returns, and introduces a handy abstraction named Either.

Predictive modeling techniques, mathematical algorithms that make up the core of predictive analytics http://t.co/QLNXTBSk /cc @citizen428

This is the second article of a four part series focusing on the most important aspects of predictive analytics. Part 1 offered a general overview of predictive analytics. This article focuses on predictive modeling techniques, the mathematical algorithms that make up the core of predictive analytics.

In March 2012, version 3.3 of the Linux kernel was released (followed in by version 3.4 in May). In addition to a plethora of small features and bug fixes, several important changes have arrived with these releases, including the merging of the Google Android project; merging of the Open vSwitch; several networking improvements (including the teaming network device); and a variety of file system, memory management, and virtualization updates. Explore many of the important changes in versions 3.3 and 3.4, and have a peek at what's ahead in 3.5.

With IBM® Worklight® V5, a leading Mobile Enterprise Application Platform (MEAP), IBM expands its overall mobile capabilities across its product portfolio. This series of articles introduces the Worklight platform by showing how you can build mobile applications that leverage a variety of IBM products. Part 1 describes the process of setting up a Worklight development environment and creating a simple application that will be used as the basis for iterative development in subsequent articles.

Working with Linux® doesn't mean your work is restricted to command-line tools. True, most experienced Linux administrators use command-line tools for convenience and more efficient administration. However, the GNOME project provides some excellent tools for managing a Linux server using a graphical user interface (GUI). Using your Microsoft® Windows® background experience, you might find that these tools make the transition less dramatic.

Node.js (Node) is an I/O environment built on top of Google Chrome's JavaScript runtime — essentially, a server-side implementation of JavaScript. Node's asynchronous, event-driven I/O model makes it easy for developers with JavaScript knowledge to build high-performing, scalable, and highly concurrent web applications rapidly and run them in the cloud. This knowledge path starts with Node.js basics and takes you beyond them to using Node and supporting technologies to build an application, test it, and deploy it on a platform-as-a service.
