Author: . Between 2010 and 2017, personal loans by FinTech start-ups as a proportion of total loans leapt from 1 percent to 36 percent. That jump alone caused a lot of consternation in traditional banking. And it’s estimated that technology disruption could affect up to 80 percent of revenue for traditional retail banks beyond 2020. The changing face of global commerce is also reflected in a 2018 Cisco study, which estimates that the highest cloud traffic growth between 2016 and 2021 will be seen in the Middle East and Africa region at 41 percent, followed by 38 percent growth in ...

Author: joeleslie. The beauty of Kubernetes Operators and the new OpenShift OperatorHub (different from OperatorHub.io, a catalog for native K8s operators) is that OperatorHub is integrated into the OpenShift 4 experience, which is how it takes truly complicated technical solutions and makes deploying them so easy. When Operators were first made public in a 2016 CoreOS blog post, the goal of Operators was to make the software itself include operational knowledge that previously resided outside of the Kubernetes cluster. Operators simplify that process by implementing and automating the most common Day-1 and Day-2 activities in a piece of software running ... Read More

Author: joeleslie. In April, Murat Karslioglu and I presented a webinar on the challenges of deploying an enterprise SQL database across multiple geographical locations in OpenShift or Kubernetes clusters. We had a lot to show, and unfortunately ran out of time to answer questions. We put together answers to those questions here for you, but if you have more, please reach out — we’d be happy to discuss any other questions or ideas you have.  How easy is it to set up NuoDB to use OpenEBS? It’s very easy. Just follow the OpenEBS install instructions to start OpenEBS storage, create ... Read More

Author: mkysel. In SQL you can perform a lot of DDL operations, such as creating or renaming tables, creating or removing columns, and more, and these DDL statements are most often used when creating or upgrading your application schema. However, there’s more to transactional DDL than just being able to do large schema updates atomically. Transactional DDL also provides protection against failures. That means that networks can fail, machines can fail, and still, NuoDB will guarantee that all schema modifications are either all applied or nothing is applied. Essentially this means that all operations in NuoDB aspire to be failure resistant ... Read More
