      Review: Databricks Lakehouse Platform

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

    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 edit

    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 edit

    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 edit

    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 edit

    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.

      Understanding Azure HPC

      pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Wednesday, 12 January, 2022 - 11:00 edit

    Way back when, so the story goes, someone said we’d only need five computers for the whole world. It’s quite easy to argue that Azure, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, and the like are all implementations of a massively scalable compute cluster, with each server and each data center another component that adds up to build a huge, planetary-scale computer. In fact, many of the technologies that power our clouds were originally developed to build and run supercomputers using off-the-shelf commodity hardware.

    Why not take advantage of the cloud to build, deploy, and run HPC (high-performance computing) systems that exist for only as long as we need them to solve problems? You can think of clouds in much the same way the filmmakers at Weta Digital thought about their render farms, server rooms of hardware built out to be ready to deliver the CGI effects for films like King Kong and The Hobbit. The equipment doubled as a temporary supercomputer for the New Zealand government while waiting to be used for filmmaking.

      How CI/CD is different for data science

      pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Tuesday, 23 November, 2021 - 11:00 edit

    Agile programming is the most-used methodology that enables development teams to release their software into production, frequently to gather feedback and refine the underlying requirements. For agile to work in practice, however, processes are needed that allow the revised application to be built and released into production automatically—generally known as continuous integration/continuous deployment , or CI/CD. CI/CD enables software teams to build complex applications without running the risk of missing the initial requirements by regularly involving the actual users and iteratively incorporating their feedback.

      Send Outlook email and Teams messages with R

      pubsub.slavino.sk / infoworldcom · Tuesday, 23 November, 2021 - 10:59 edit

    If you analyze data in R and share information via Microsoft 365, I have good news: There is an easy way to connect R with Outlook, Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint. The Microsoft365R R package, developed by the Microsoft Azure team, includes functions to work with Microsoft 365 APIs from R.

    Here we’ll walk through how to send Outlook email and Teams messages with R.

    Microsoft365R is available on CRAN, so you can install it with install.packages("Microsoft365R") .
