Azure is now the only cloud provider to offer a no-compromise cloud storage solution that is fast, secure, massively scalable, cost-effective, and fully capable of running the most demanding production workloads. In this blog post we’ll take a closer look at the technical foundation of ADLS that will power the end to end analytics scenarios our customers demand. ADLS is the only cloud storage service that is purpose-built for big data analytics. It is designed to integrate ... Read More

Feed: AWS Compute Blog. Author: Anuneet Kumar. This post is contributed by Adam McLean – Solutions Developer at AWS and Chirill Cucereavii – Application Architect at AWS In this post, we show you how to automatically refresh the container instances in an active Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) cluster with instances built from a newly released AMI. The Amazon ECS-optimized AMI  comes prepackaged with the ECS container agent, Docker agent, and the ecs-init upstart service. We recommend that you use the Amazon ECS-optimized AMI for your container instances unless your application requires any of the following: A specific operating system Custom security and monitoring agents installed ...

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: Lorenz Walthert. How do you program? I feel like there is a lot of advice out there, but most ofit focuses on the micro level rather than on the macro level. That’s why Idecided to think about what makes one an efficient programmer on a macro level. Spend time on improving skills that help you become more productive inthe long run.For example, it’s a fact that git is the version control system of choice. Andthere is no reason why this should change tomorrow. Or in 5 year’s time. Thatin turn means that you need to know the ... Read More

Feed: Databasejournal.com - Feature Database Articles. Author: . In September 2018, IBM announced a new product, IBM Db2 AI for z/OS. This artificial intelligence engine monitors data access patterns from executing SQL statements, uses machine learning algorithms to decide on optimal patterns and passes this information to the Db2 query optimizer for use by subsequent statements. Machine Learning on the IBM z Platform In May of 2018, IBM announced version 1.2 of its Machine Learning for z/OS (MLz) product. This is a hybrid zServer and cloud software suite that ingests performance data, analyzes and builds models that represent the health ... Read More

Feed: Neo4j Graph Database Platform. Author: Jocelyn Hoppa. Graph algorithms provide the means to understand, model and predict complicated dynamics such as the flow of resources or information, the pathways through which contagions or network failures spread, and the influences on and resiliency of groups.This blog series is designed to help you better utilize graph analytics and graph algorithms so you can effectively innovate and develop intelligent solutions faster using a graph database like Neo4j.Last week we wrapped up our look at Centrality algorithms, with our look at the Closeness Centrality algorithm.This week we begin our exploration of Community Detection ...

Feed: Cambridge Intelligence. Author: Dan Williams. To help users make sense of their complex data, KeyLines – the graph visualization toolkit – offers an intuitive way to group and combine different nodes. We call these groupings combos. They’re great for reducing clutter and organizing your networks into something more manageable.Insightful user feedback has helped us make combos even better (you’ll have spotted the latest batch of great enhancements in KeyLines 5.1). There are more improvements to come as this powerful feature will soon move out of Beta development and become an established part of the KeyLines toolkit.How you style nodes ... Read More

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Scotch.io; The importance of online code editing platforms cannot be overemphasized. As much as we love our local IDE's, one too many times we find ourselves needing to quickly share and or collaborate with a friend or colleague in our local projects. Table of ContentsIn cases like this, online playgrounds give us that added functionality to write and run codes as well as share snippets and have colleagues test it out and give us feedback. In this post, we'll be looking at the top 5 online code editors for JavaScript in no particular order. CodePen is ... Read More

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. Common table expressions, aka CTEs, aka WITH queries, are not only the gateway to writing recursive SQL queries, but also help developers write maintainable SQL. WITH query clauses can help developers who are more comfortable writing in imperative languages to feel more comfortable writing SQL, as well as help reduce writing redundant code by reusing a particular common table expressions multiple times in a query.A new patch, scheduled to be a part of PostgreSQL 12 major release later in the year, introduces the ability, under certain conditions, to inline common table expressions within a query. This is a huge ... Read More
