Today, as part of our Earth Day celebration, we’re showcasing blog posts that do just that and more. Training artificial intelligence (AI) services and machine learning (ML) workloads uses a lot of energy, ... Read More

Feed: AWS Partner Network (APN) Blog. Author: Ivan Panushev. By Ivan Panushev, Principal Partner Solutions Architect – AWS Nasuni The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry is experiencing unprecedented growth in unstructured data. As a result, IT teams have been pushed to consider innovative strategies for file data storage and analytics. Modern computer-aided design (CAD) and building information modeling (BIM) workflows have contributed to the need for collaboration between building architects and engineers. In construction, new methods of capturing site information, such as laser scanning, photogrammetry, drone photography, and continuous video monitoring have presented challenges for file storage, analysis, and ...

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. In Part 4 of this series, Governing Security at Scale and IAM Baselining, we discussed building a multi-account strategy and improving access management and least privilege to prevent unwanted access and to enforce security controls. As a refresher from previous posts in this series, our example e-commerce company’s “Shoppers” application runs in the cloud. The company experienced hypergrowth, which posed a number of platform and technology challenges, including enforcing security and governance controls to mitigate security risks. With the pace of new infrastructure and software deployments, we had to ensure we maintain strong security. This post, Part 5, ... Read More

Feed: AWS Compute Blog. Author: Talia Nassi. In modern application development, event-driven architecture is becoming more prominent because it can make building applications in the cloud easier. Event-driven architecture can allow you to decouple your services, which increases developer velocity, and can make it easier for you to debug applications. It also can help remove the bottleneck that occurs when features expand across different teams, which allows teams to progress more independently. One way to think about how an application works is as a system that reacts to events from other places, like from within your application. In this approach, ... Read More

Feed: Journey to AI Blog; Author: Jo Ramos; To simplify data access and empower users to leverage trusted information, organizations need a better approach that provides better insights and business outcomes faster, without sacrificing data access controls. There are many different approaches, but you’ll want an architecture that can be used regardless of your data estate. A data fabric is an architectural approach that enables organizations to simplify data access and data governance across a hybrid multicloud landscape for better 360-degree views of the customer and enhanced MLOps and trustworthy AI. In other words, the obstacles of data access, data ... Read More

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. Companies committed to diversity (gender or otherwise) tend to be more creative and innovative and have higher retention and engagement rates. Diverse leadership can provide excellent role models for younger people looking for a career in STEM, those who are transitioning into the industry from an “unconventional” career path, or those who are returning to work. This International Women’s Day, we’re featuring more than a week’s worth of posts that highlight female builders and leaders. We’re showcasing women in the industry who are building, creating, and, above all, inspiring, empowering, and encouraging everyone—especially women and girls—in ... Read More

Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Marcos Garcia. I have just completed an MSc in artificial intelligence and have been reflecting on my key takeaways from this experience. Study and learning like that is intrinsically interesting. And all the more so when everyone around you talks about analytics and artificial intelligence. Many would argue that it is worth doing in its own right. However, I think it is also important to consider how we integrate our new skills and knowledge into our "day jobs" and how to correlate everything in an architectural aproach. My day job as a manager and architect is ... Read More

Feed: Planet NoSQL. Author: Keshav Murthy.  IntroductionBy any measure, MongoDB is a popular document-oriented JSON database. In the last dozen years, it has grown from its humble beginnings of a single lock per database to a modern multi-document transaction with snapshot isolation. MongoDB University has trained a large number of developers to develop the MongoDB database.There are many JSON databases now. While it's easy to start with MongoDB to learn NoSQL and flexible JSON schema, many customers choose Couchbase for performance, scale, and SQL. As you progress in your database evaluation and evolution, it's easier to start from what you ... Read More

Feed: Alation. Author: Talo Thomson. February 8, 2022 — The “data textile” wars continue! In our first blog in this series, we define the terms data fabric and data mesh. The second blog took a deeper dive into data fabric, examining its key pillars and the role of the data catalog in each. In this blog, we’ll do the same with data mesh, unpacking the four key pillars, with a few notes on the role of the data catalog. While data fabric takes a product-and-tech-centric approach, data mesh takes a completely different perspective. Data mesh inverts the common model of ... Read More

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog. This post is authored by Giridhar G Jorapur, GE Aviation Digital Technology. Maintenance and overhauling of aircraft engines are essential for GE Aviation to increase time on wing gains and reduce shop visit costs. Engine wash analytics provide visibility into the significant time on wing gains that can be achieved through effective water wash, foam wash, and other tools. This empowers GE Aviation with digital insights that help optimize water and foam wash procedures and maximize fuel savings. This post demonstrates how we automated our engine wash analytics process to handle the complexity of ingesting ... Read More
