Feed: CDH – Cloudera Engineering Blog. Author: Justin Kestelyn. Solr 5 includes a completely re-written faceted search and analytics module with a structured JSON API to control the faceting and analytics commands. Here’s how it works. Since I joined Cloudera a few years ago to help bring search-powered analytics to Cloudera’s platform, I’ve been working actively upstream alongside the rest of the Solr community to develop new functionality that will drive more interesting applications on Cloudera Search (which is based on an integration of Solr with the Apache Hadoop ecosystem).

Feed: Planet big data. Author: Curt Monash. August 17, 2017 Last year I posted observations about the transition to the cloud. Here are some further thoughts. 0. In case any doubt remained, the big questions about transitioning to the cloud are “When?” and “How?”. “Whether”, by way of contrast, is pretty much settled. 1. The answer to “When?” is generally “Over many years”. In particular, at most enterprises the cloud transition will span multiple CIO’s tenure in their positions. Few enterprises will ever execute on simple, consistent, unchanging “cloud strategies”. 2. The SaaS (Software as a Service) vs. on-premises tradeoffs ... Read More

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. Char() Char() Char(1) Char(1) If used as a boolean flag, use the boolean type instead Varchar2() Varchar() Timestamp Timestamptz In general, we recommend storing timestamps as time stamp with time zone (timestamptz), which is equivalent to Oracle’s timestamp with local time zone. This stores all values in UTC, even if the server or db client are in different timezones which avoids a lot of problems. But, some app code might have to be changed to timezone aware types – if significant, use the “timestamp” without timezone to minimize migration changes. Date Timestamptz PostgreSQL “Date” type stores the ... Read More
