Companies need to consider both how fast they can put edge applications into action and update them, and how quickly they can process incoming data. Industrial processes are becoming increasingly automated as sensors on machines collect a growing amount of data. Much of this data is time-stamped and can help companies improve processes. This large volume of sensor data can become unwieldy if companies don’t manage it properly.
We believe that querying data in Apache Parquet files directly can achieve similar or better storage efficiency and query performance than most specialized file formats. While it requires significant engineering effort, the benefits of Parquet’s open format and broad ecosystem support make it the obvious choice for a wide class of data systems.
In the last two decades, the software industry has shifted away from on-premises applications to software-as-a-service (SaaS). SaaS now accounts for 70% of the business software market according to BetterCloud, and is worth more than $170bn annually, according to Gartner.

As we settle into the time of year when we reflect on what we're thankful for, we tend to focus on important basics such as health, family and friends. But on a professional level, IT operations (ITOps) practitioners are thankful to avoid disastrous outages that can cause confusion, frustration, lost revenue and damaged reputations. The very last thing ITOps, network operations center (NOC) or site reliability engineering (SRE) teams want while eating their turkey and enjoying time with family is to get paged about an outage. These can be extremely costly - $12,913 per minute, in fact, and up to $1.5 million per hour for larger organizations.
The DevOps pipeline is a crucial part of software development, but it can often get mired in bottlenecks. Most problems are caused by the development and operations teams having different responsibilities are due to inefficiencies in the pipeline design. However, thanks to continuous observability, DevOps now gets a new lease of life since it is possible to tweak the pipeline to suit the developer’s workflow.
