“I have enrolled. Thanks very much for giving such quality skills for free. Wooow.” - @ffumwa
Lightbend and IBM Cognitive Class have teamed up to introduce the parts 1 and 2 of six free, self-paced, online courses on Reactive Architecture. Based on our three-day, instructor-led training “Lightbend Reactive Architecture - Professional” (next sessions Sep 10 & 18), development managers, architects, and software developers can now freely learn all about Reactive Systems, from design through to production readiness in the cloud or on-prem. Plus, you can get a certificate proving your skills at the end!
If you haven’t downloaded “Serving Machine Learning Models”, the excellent O’Reilly eBook by Lightbend’s Principal Architect, Boris Lublinsky, then now is a good time. Boris recently published a new chapter on Speculative Model Serving on Lightbend Tech Hub, extending the expertise provided in the book—which you should probably read first ;-) You can also sign up early for Boris’s Nov-1 webinar on this very topic.
