Feed: Microsoft Power BI Blog | Microsoft Power BI. Author: . We’re excited to move Enhanced refresh with the Power BI REST API (formerly asynchronous refresh) from public preview to general availability in Power BI Premium, Power BI Premium per User, and Power BI Embedded. As noted in the public preview announcement, this feature not only eliminates the need for synchronous client connections to perform a refresh, but also unlocks enterprise-grade refresh capabilities. It’s a significant improvement over the standard refresh REST API in Power BI. By using the enhanced refresh REST API, you can leverage built in features for ... Read More

Feed: Microsoft Power BI Blog | Microsoft Power BI. Author: . We are happy to announce that the ExecuteQueries REST API is now GA. By using this REST API, you can query datasets in Power BI from practically any modern environment on any platform, as long as you can authenticate with Azure Active Directory (AAD) and construct a Web request. The query functionality is comparable to XMLA read access, yet avoids dependencies on Analysis Services client libraries, requires no connection to XMLA endpoints, and works in Premium workspaces as well as in ordinary workspaces. Just make sure your workspace is ... Read More

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. In Part 1 of this blog series, we demonstrated why tiering and throttling become necessary at scale for multi-tenant REST APIs, and explored tiering strategy and throttling with Amazon API Gateway. In this post, Part 2, we will examine tenant isolation strategies at scale with API Gateway and extend the sample code from Part 1. Enhancing the sample code To enable this functionality in the sample code (Figure 1), we will make manual changes. First, create one API key for the Free Tier and five API keys for the Basic Tier. Currently, these API keys are ... Read More

Feed: AWS Architecture Blog. Many software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers adopt throttling as a common technique to protect a distributed system from spikes of inbound traffic that might compromise reliability, reduce throughput, or increase operational cost. Multi-tenant SaaS systems have an additional concern of fairness; excessive traffic from one tenant needs to be selectively throttled without impacting the experience of other tenants. This is also known as “the noisy neighbor” problem. AWS itself enforces some combination of throttling and quota limits on nearly all its own service APIs. SaaS providers building on AWS should design and implement throttling strategies in all of ... Read More

Feed: AWS Compute Blog. Author: James Beswick. This post is written by James Eastham, Cloud Infrastructure Architect. There are many ways to deploy a .NET application to AWS. From a single process ASP.NET core web API hosted on an EC2 instance to a serverless API backed by AWS Lambda. This post explains key topics to simplify your move from monolith to serverless. The .NET Framework launched in 2002. This means that there are years’ worth of existing .NET application code that can benefit from moving to a serverless architecture. With the release of the AWS Porting Assistant for .NET and ... Read More

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. In this series I defined an API Rate Limiter with a simple table + function. I still have the table rate_limiting_token_bucket and function rate_limiting_request created, you can find their definitions in Part 2. To call it, I'd created a small Java program in Part 3 but we don't need it here. I'll call my function from a REST API and this very simple to implement, with no code. I'll use PostgREST, a standalone web server that turns your PostgreSQL database directly into a RESTful API. And what works on PostgreSQL can also run on YugabyteDB. I have ... Read More

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog. API (Application Programming Interface) is a design pattern used to expose a platform or application to another party. APIs enable programs and applications to communicate with platforms and services, and can be designed to use REST (REpresentational State Transfer) as a software architecture style. APIs in OLTP (online transaction processing) are called frequently (tens to hundreds of times per second), delivering small payloads (output) in the order of a few bytes to kilobytes. However, OLAP (online analytical processing) has the ratio flipped. OLAP APIs have a low call volume but large payload (100 MB to ... Read More

Feed: MariaDB Knowledge Base Article Feed. Author: . The MariaDB Foundation maintains a Downloads REST API. See the Downloads API documentation to find out all the tasks that you can accomplish with this API. Generally speaking, we can say that it provides information about MariaDB products and available versions. This allows to easily automate upgrades for MariaDB and related products. The Downloads API exposes HTTPS endpoints that return information in JSON format. HTTP and JSON are extremely common standards that can be easily used with any programming language. How to Use the API with a Unix Shell Linux shells are ... Read More

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. Encrypting data at rest is often an important compliance task when working on securing your database system. While there are a lot of elements that go into securing a PostgreSQL database, encrypting data at rest helps to protect your data from various offline attacks including the stealing of a disk or tampering. Disk encryption is a popular feature among public database-as-a-service providers, including Crunchy Bridge, to protect data in a multi-tenant environment ... Read More
