About this title

About the Author

Mohamed Sanaulla is a software developer with more than 7 years of experience in developing enterprise applications and Java-based backend solutions for e-commerce applications.

His interests include Enterprise software development, refactoring and redesigning applications, designing and implementing RESTful web services, troubleshooting Java applications for performance issues, and TDD.

He has strong expertise in Java-based application development, ADF (JSF-based Java EE web framework), SQL, PL/SQL, JUnit, designing RESTful services, Spring, Struts, Elasticsearch, and MongoDB. He is also a Sun Certified Java Programmer for the Java 6 platform. He is a moderator for JavaRanch, and likes to share his findings on his blog.

Nick Samoylov was born in Moscow, raised in Ukraine, and lived in the Crimea. He graduated as an engineer-physicist from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technologies, has worked as a theoretical physicist, and has learned programming as a tool for testing his mathematical models using FORTRAN and C++.

After the demise of the USSR, Nick created and successfully ran a software company, but was forced to close it under the pressure of governmental and criminal rackets. In 1999, with his wife Luda and two daughters, he emigrated to the USA and has been living in Colorado since then.

Nick adopted Java in 1997 and used it for working as a software developer-contractor for a variety of companies, including BEA Systems, Warner Telecom, and Boeing. For Boeing, he and his wife, also a Java programmer, developed a system of loading application data to the airplane via the internet.

Nick's current projects are related to machine learning and developing a highly scalable system of microservices using non-blocking reactive technologies, including Vert.x, RxJava, and RESTful webservices on Linux deployed in a cloud.

Nick and Luda have two daughters who graduated from Harvard and Tufts universities, respectively. One has also received a doctoral degree from Brown University and now works as a professor in the University of California in Chico. The other daughter is an executive director of the investment bank, JPMorgan, in Madrid, Spain.

In his free time, Nick likes to read (mostly non-fiction), write (fiction novels and blogs), and hike the Rocky Mountains.
