SQL databases have several functions that reduce the complexity of working with date and time. Using these functions and a date and time type column, you can depend on SQL for the logic to write and read data with date and time. In this post, you’ll learn how to use the SQL date and time functions to get the current date and time.

In this live stream discussion, Eugene Katz and I explain the importance of a quality reference architecture in successful software deployment and guide viewers on how to begin with the Cribl Stream Reference Architecture. They help users establish end-state goals, share different use cases, and help data administrators identify which parts of the reference architecture apply to their specific situation. It’s also available on our podcast feed if you want to listen on the go.

The open source community talks a lot about the problem of aligning incentives. If you’re not familiar with the discourse, most of this conversation so far has centered around the most classic model of open source: the solo unpaid developer who maintains a tiny but essential library that’s holding up half the internet. For example, Denis Pushkarev, the solo maintainer of popular JavaScript library core-js, announced that he can’t continue if not better compensated.

Legacy enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are good at executing transactions and producing document-based outputs, such as purchase orders. But they fall short when it comes to connecting the work of users across departments and functions. Prebuilt ERP workflows can help. Having spent more than 25 years in the ERP space, I’ve seen only a handful of customers with a single ERP instance.

DevOps, as a combination of development and operations, is the process by which companies build and manage software and deliver it to customers. A good DevOps strategy unites team members around shared goals and gives them the support and tools they need to complete the job well.

At least a small part of that difficulty comes down to fuzzy definitions.

Two software solutions that most MSPs cannot live without are known as professional services automation (PSA) and remote monitoring and management (RMM). However, it’s no secret that software solutions are expensive, so does your business really need both? Decide which software you should use after reviewing this comparison of PSA vs. RMM.

Today, I'm excited to share with you how we've turned Kubernetes into a product that developers can easily use without any headaches. We'll explore why Kubernetes can be difficult for developers and how Qovery simplifies the process by acting as an intermediate layer and integrating with the developer ecosystem.

Internet of Things (IoT) deployments continue to expand globally, revolutionising the way businesses operate by boosting efficiency and enhancing experiences for customers and employees. But as is the case with many innovations, growth has outpaced security considerations resulting in unforeseen problems emerging as bad actors seek to exploit new vulnerabilities.

Browser instrumentation refers to collecting and analyzing data about a user's interactions with a web browser. This type of instrumentation involves using specialized tools and techniques to gather information about how a website is being used, such as page load times, network requests, and user interactions. The data collected through browser instrumentation can be used to improve website performance, identify and troubleshoot errors, and gain insights into user behavior.

A few months ago, we totally redesigned our service. We didn't to this on our own, but got help from our friends at Digital With You.
