Feed: The Connector by Workato. Author: Vijay Tella; There’s been a big movement to cloud and the adoption of SaaS in recent years, and in this context, there is a major shift happening from Information Technology (IT) to Business Technology (BT).

Feed: Liquid Web. Author: Andrew Hartnett; First of all, what is DevOps? DevOps is short for Developer Operations and it is a newer approach that combines both development and operational tasks to automate and speed up software development practices and reduce release cycles for fast-growing companies.

Feed: Clustrix Blog. Author: Anders Karlsson. There are several ways to load data into MariaDB Platform, and some are better than others. The two basic ways are either to use LOAD DATA INFILE / LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE, which is very fast, in particular the non-LOCAL one and then we have the plain INSERT statement. When using an INSERT statement you may pass an array to MariaDB Server, like thisINSERT (column1,column2) VALUES(, ),(, ) Nothing special with that, but what we will cover in this blog is another way of doing INSERTs using arrays, one which uses the MariaDB API ...

For decades it has been exactly that: a dream – because we as human beings are able to see, we just don’t know how we do it, let alone be precise enough to put it into algorithmic form. Enter machine learning! As we have seen in Understanding the Magic of Neural Networks we can use neural networks for that. We have to show the network ... Read More
