AWS Lambda is an event-driven compute service, which means it executes tasks automatically when triggered by a compute event. This automation also means that your Lambda costs can quickly exceed your budget. That is especially true when you’re not familiar with AWS Lambda pricing. In this guide, we’ll discuss the AWS Lambda pricing model, including how billing works and how to optimize Lambda costs.

Components in Delphi save the essential time it often takes for developers to write code from scratch, providing pre-built options you can continuously reuse to assemble software, create a smooth user interface, and handle complex data connectivity tasks. Streamlined development, reduced number of errors, and consistency are only some of the advantages that you get when using components while you work with Delphi.

Imagine you’re working in a UNIX-based environment, managing multiple databases like MariaDB, PostgreSQL, or Oracle, and you have to connect their data to different applications. Without UNIX ODBC drivers, you’d have to write custom code for each database, which would quickly turn into a nightmare — each database has its own way of handling queries, connections, and authentication. Luckily, ODBC drivers can save the day by acting as “translators”.

ODAC for Delphi is a comprehensive set of components that allows Delphi developers to integrate Oracle database connectivity into their applications without too much hassle. In this article, we will explore how to install ODAC, its advantages, and some of its key features.

Ad-hoc queries are temporary SQL queries created and executed to perform a specific task without prior preparation or to save as permanent procedures or functions. Usually, they can be used to analyze data, search for particular information, or solve temporary tasks. However, if user-defined input data generates the text in ad-hoc queries dynamically, they may be vulnerable to SQL injections. In the article, we’ll explore what ad-hoc queries are and what security and access risks they may cause.
