Surprising ways page loading time affects your bottom line

Avid kite flyer, publisher, and postmaster Benjamin Franklin is believed to have coined the catchphrase, “time is money”. If only he had known just how relevant the phrase would become hundreds of years later, especially when it comes to the relationship between customer expectations of your website’s page load times and lost revenue. Page load time is the time it takes your browser to retrieve a page, with all content, and display it in full.

Object Storage vs Block Storage - What's the difference?

At Taloflow we recently launched a way for companies migrating from AWS/GCP/Azure to 3rd party object storage providers like Storj to receive an objective TCO analysis of all the switching and storing costs associated.

Elasticsearch Text Analysis: How to Use Analyzers and Normalizers

Elasticsearch is a distributed search and analytics engine used for real-time data processing of several different data types. Elasticsearch has built-in processing for numerical, geospatial, and structured text values. Unstructured text values have some built-in analytics capabilities, but custom text fields generally require custom analysis. Built-in text analysis uses analyzers provided by Elasticsearch, but customization is also possible.

Monitoring UV sensors on the International Space Station with Grafana

In space, there’s no atmosphere to protect against the sun’s ultraviolet radiation. Astronauts in orbit are exposed to the equivalent of eight X-rays a day, and the space stations and suits that protect them degrade over time due to radiation and other factors. Scientists working on the International Space Station (ISS) want to know more about ultraviolet (UV) radiation in orbit so they can design better materials.
