Elastic 7.6 introduced the inference processor for performing inference on documents as they are ingested through an ingest pipeline. Ingest pipelines are incredibly powerful and flexible but they are designed to work at ingest. So what happens if your data is already ingested? Introducing the new Elasticsearch inference pipeline aggregation, which lets you apply new inference models on data that's already been indexed.
Chances are you already spent a big part of your day looking for a document, an email, or an answer that lies deep within a Google Slides presentation. Thankfully, you landed in the right place. With Workplace Search, finding the right information across all your cloud and on-premises data platforms is now easier than ever, and it’s a few clicks closer than you expect.
Many organizations are transitioning toward a DevOps operational model, where software developers are responsible for operating the applications they develop, instead of a centralized IT operations group. In this “CTO Perspective” interview we talk to BigPanda’s CTO Elik Eizenberg about the challenges in that transition, and what it takes to make it easier. Lean back and watch the interview, or if you prefer reading, take a few minutes to read the transcript.
Welcome to the final installment of our Complete AWS Lambda Handbook series! Given Lambda is often the central point for many serverless applications, we wanted to make sure we didn’t skip or breeze past any part. In this episode, we’re looking at some limitations and difficulties using AWS Lambda and how to overcome them, and the importance of monitoring for performance and failure remediation.
I have been following distributed tracing technologies — Zipkin, OpenTracing, Jaeger, and others — for several years, without deeply trialing with any of them. Just prior to the holidays, we were having a number of those “why is this slow?” questions about an express application, written in typescript, providing an API endpoint.
So you’ve got an app ready for launch, and unlike in the past where you simply ran it on-premises, this time you want to try the cloud. You know AWS is the leading cloud platform, and decide to give it a go. The first thing you’ll bump into as you learn about AWS is the various options of cloud instances available with AWS EC2.
IoT is slowly, quietly taking over the world. A few years ago, self-ordering fridges, driverless cars, and fully automated homes seemed like the stuff of dreams. And while the technology exists, rollout and adoption is slower than anticipated, amidst security and privacy concerns. That said, IoT is the future, and growth is steady, as the challenges of building and maintaining hundreds of thousands of devices per vendor are getting solved.
With the economies of many countries heading towards recession, increasing regulations, growing security threats and increasing costs, financial services firms need practical solutions, now more than ever. Many of the financial technology firms (‘fintechs’) and mobile app-based challenger banks have taken advantage of modern application architectures and DevOps practices that are associated with cloud native technologies.
