Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. Organizations are using Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) for building their data lakes, websites, mobile applications, and enterprise applications. As the number of objects within your S3 bucket increases, you may want to move older objects into lower-cost tiers of Amazon S3. In some cases you may want to delete the objects altogether to further reduce S3 storage costs. A common practice is to use S3 Lifecycle rules to achieve this. These rules can be applied to objects based on their creation date. In certain situations, you may want to keep objects available that are still ... Read More

They talk about things like HA and raft protocol and the right and wrong approach for configuring synchronous vs. asynchronous replication. There is a lot of value in all that deep technical knowledge, but for when interacting with customers, I like to boil it down a bit. What I've seen is that for many folks the basics of key database principles can get lost in the details. What follows is a summary of  conversations I've had with customers on how to think about key tenants of ... Read More

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog. Organizations across the globe are striving to improve the scalability and cost efficiency of the data warehouse.

Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Jim Harris. Over twenty-five years ago, I was the victim of identity fraud. Someone with the same full name who lived in my town had billed tens of thousands of dollars in medical expenses to me. The fraudster pulled this off partly because of what is now considered an ancient trove of publicly available data. My full name, postal address and home telephone number were listed in the phone book – those printed, yellow-covered books that were delivered to your doorstep. My identity thief was able to commit in-person fraud using his real photo ID (most ... Read More
