Feed: Blog – ArangoDB. Author: Max Neunhöffer. It has been a few months since we first released the Kubernetes operator for ArangoDB and started to brag about it. Since then, quite a few things have happened. For example, we have done a lot of testing, fixed bugs, and by now the operator is declared to be production ready for three popular public Kubernetes offerings, namely Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) and Pivotal Kubernetes Service (PKS) (see here for the current state of affairs). We have developed a semi-automatic “acceptance test” to validate production readiness for each ... Read More

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Dave Provenza. Data processing has been revolutionized in recent years, and these changes present tremendous possibilities. For example, if we consider a variety of use cases — from the IoT and Artificial Intelligence to user activity monitoring, fraud detection and FinTech — what do all of these cases have in common? They all collect and process high volumes of data, which arrive at high velocities. After processing this data, these technologies then deliver them to all the appropriate consumers of data. Last month, with the release of version 5.0, Redis launched an innovative new way to ... Read More

This new release includes two huge features: a C++ based full-text search and ranking engine called ArangoSearch; and largely extended capabilities for geospatial queries by integrating Google™ ...
