Feed: R-bloggers. Author: rOpenSci - open tools for open science. Sharing data sets for collaboration or publication has always been challenging, but it’s become increasingly problematic as complex and high dimensional data sets have become ubiquitous in the life sciences.

Feed: AWS Partner Network (APN) Blog. Author: Phil de Valence. By Barry Tait, Director of Modernization and Cloud Strategies at Modern SystemsMainframe modernization has shifted to go well beyond simple cost-cutting measures. Mainframe legacy owners now expect additional gains such as conversion to maintainable object-oriented languages, shift of infrastructure to leverage elastic Amazon Web Services (AWS), and development of agile-based processes. Demand has driven increased adoption of rules-based automated conversion of legacy languages to Java or C#, or a longer-term strategic refactor to cloud-native architectures. Typical modernization projects see vendor-skilled resources use specialized migration tools, while customers focus primarily on ... Read More
