Aerospike Database is the NoSQL database underlying the Aerospike Real-time Data Platform. Aerospike Database 6, unveiled April 27, both introduces support for JSON document data models, and promises to deliver sub-millisecond performance at gigabyte-to-petabyte scale. The JSON and JSONPath query support enable storage, searching, querying, and management of richer and more varied data.

Overcoming AI’s limitations

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Tuesday, 3 May, 2022 - 10:00

Whether we realize it or not, most of us deal with artificial intelligence (AI) every day. Each time you do a Google Search or ask Siri a question, you are using AI. The catch, however, is that the intelligence these tools provide is not really intelligent . They don’t truly think or understand in the way humans do. Rather, they analyze massive data sets, looking for patterns and correlations.

That’s not to take anything away from AI. As Google, Siri, and hundreds of other tools demonstrate on a daily basis, current AI is incredibly useful. But bottom line, there isn’t much intelligence going on. Today’s AI only gives the appearance of intelligence. It lacks any real understanding or consciousness.

What is a data lake? Massively scalable storage for big data analytics

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Friday, 29 April, 2022 - 10:00 · 1 minute

In 2011, James Dixon, then CTO of the business intelligence company Pentaho, coined the term data lake . He described the data lake in contrast to the information silos typical of data marts , which were popular at the time:

If you think of a data mart as a store of bottled water—cleansed and packaged and structured for easy consumption—the data lake is a large body of water in a more natural state. The contents of the data lake stream in from a source to fill the lake, and various users of the lake can come to examine, dive in, or take samples.

Data lakes have evolved since then, and now compete with data warehouses for a share of big data storage and analytics . Various tools and products support faster SQL querying in data lakes , and all three major cloud providers offer data lake storage and analytics. There's even the new data lakehouse concept, which combines governance, security, and analytics with affordable storage. This article is a high dive into data lakes, including what they are, how they're used, and how to ensure your data lake does not become a data swamp.

Review: Databricks Lakehouse Platform

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Wednesday, 27 April, 2022 - 10:00

Data lakes and data warehouses used to be completely different animals, but now they seem to be merging. A data lake was a single data repository that held all your data for analysis. The data was stored in its native form, at least initially. A data warehouse was an analytic database, usually relational, created from two or more data sources. The data warehouse was typically used to store historical data, most often using a star schema or at least a large set of indexes to support queries.

Think of search as the application platform, not just a feature

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Tuesday, 26 April, 2022 - 10:00

In 2000, Yahoo had pole position to win one of the biggest market opportunities of all time, as one of the early World Wide Web’s most popular and fastest-growing services.

The internet was still relatively new ( 17 million websites , compared to today’s 1.6 billion ) and companies like Yahoo were in a clumsily named category sometimes referred to as “starting pages” or “portals”—gateways to services like email, news, finance, and sports. Yahoo was running away with this traffic, because it had the friendliest interface and the best content at that time for this new “web” experience.

5 tips for choosing the right database

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Tuesday, 15 March, 2022 - 10:00

The database that you choose today will impact your application and development efforts far into the future. Yet a developer’s choice of a database tends to be an emotional decision, and developers often choose a database based solely on what their applications need at the outset.

If a database seems exciting, a developer may just go with their gut. And they may forego doing analysis of whether or not the database will work for their application today and in the future.

[ Also on InfoWorld: How to choose a cloud database ]

A developer may also be overwhelmed by having to choose between the many available databases. This can create paralysis followed by the selection of a database that addresses what an application starts out as. But you don’t always know what all the use cases of an application will be. Applications tend to start simple and become more complicated over time.

What is a serverless database? Elastic compute for the data tier

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Friday, 11 March, 2022 - 11:00

Serverless cloud computing services started with AWS Lambda, which lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers . AWS Lambda is an example of functions as a service , or FaaS, and other FaaS implementations quickly followed at Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. Later, cloud providers started offering other services in serverless form. Serverless was a new way of thinking about cloud services, and in practice serverless architectures often cost a fraction of provisioning permanent server instances to run the same loads.

How to choose a streaming data platform

pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Wednesday, 23 February, 2022 - 11:00

Streaming data is generated continuously, often by thousands of data sources, such as sensors or server logs. Streaming data records are often small, perhaps a few kilobytes each, but there are many of them, and in many cases the stream goes on and on without ever stopping. In this article, we will provide some background and discuss how to choose a streaming data platform.
