Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Airbnb Engineering; Avoiding Double Payments in a Distributed Payments SystemHow we built a generic idempotency framework to achieve eventual consistency and correctness across our payments micro-service architecture.Jon ChewBlockedUnblockFollowFollowingApr 16Authors: Jon Chew and Ninad KhistiOne of the conference rooms in our San Francisco officeBackgroundAirbnb has been migrating its infrastructure to a Service Oriented Architecture (“SOA”). SOA offers many upsides, such as enabling developer specialization and the ability to iterate faster. However, it also poses challenges for billing and payments applications because it makes it more difficult to maintain data integrity. An API call to a service that makes ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: R Blogs by Pedro N. de Lima. Simulation Metamodeling – building and using surrogate models that can approximate results from more complicated simulation models – is an interesting approach to analyze results from complicated, computationally expensive simulation models. Metamodels are useful because they can yield good approximations of the original simulation model response variables using less computational resources. For an introduction to Metamodeling, refer to (Barton ). To my knowledge, no Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) software provides metamodeling capabilities, and guidance on how to actually execute metamodeling is scarce. In this post, I’ll build a Spline-based simulation metamodel ... Read More

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: MySQL Performance Blog; PREVIOUS POST Many of our regular attendees already know that the Percona Live Open Source Database Conference is not all about Percona software or, indeed, all about Percona. However, with moving to a new city—Austin, TX— we have realized that it’s something we ought to shout out loud and clear. Our conference really is technology agnostic! As long as submissions were related to open source databases then they were candidate for selection. We have thirteen tracks at this year’s conference including a track entitled “Other Open Source Databases” which we are presenting alongside tracks ... Read More

Feed: All - O'Reilly Media. Author: Mike Loukides. San Francisco (source: O'Reilly) Visit the O'Reilly online learning platform for presentations from the Strata Data Conference in San Francisco 2019. The Strata Data Conference in San Francisco was filled with speakers talking about opportunity. But those opportunities were balanced against risks—risks that loom large as we discover more powerful ways to apply data using machine learning and artificial intelligence. It's a necessary tension we'll need to understand as we continue on the journey into the age of data. Cloudera's merger with HortonWorks demonstrates some of the opportunities. They "drank their own ... Read More

Feed: Puppet Blog Feed. Author: Kara Sowles; Who's joining us for Contributor Summit in Budapest this June? We are getting pretty excited. And while we all focus on the technical content, the workshops, the collaboration sessions - there's something else hiding in the back of our minds. Budapest. Hungary.So, to get it out of our systems so we can focus, let's talk about what we're secretly dreaming of right now. I'm an Atlas Obscura fiend so the first place I trawled for recommendations was the side dedicated to the odder side. The Miniversum I was too embarrassed to ask our ... Read More

Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Robert Allison. The past few years, I've created maps showing things you might visit and do during the big SAS Global Forum (SASGF) conference. This year the conference is in Dallas, and ... you guessed it ... I've created a Dallas map! If you're familiar with my previous maps, you know that I don't just focus on the typical museums, zoos, and such ... I also try to include things that might be a little quirky and 'off the beaten path'. For example, I include the Graffiti Fabrication Yard in my Dallas map. My friend, and frequent ... Read More
