In the modern digital landscape, data grows at an astonishing rate. Mid-sized enterprises struggle to manage its volume and velocity, let alone its value. Today’s complex data environments must span hybrid and multicloud setups. And as transformative technologies like generative AI (GenAI) matter more to business operations, they must manage skyrocketing demand for sophisticated, flexible and scalable data solutions.

When developing an Elixir app, you'll often need to handle tasks in a way that does not interrupt the normal user request-response cycle. Tasks like sending emails are great examples of jobs that should be delegated to a capable background job processing service. In the Elixir ecosystem, Oban is one such background job processing library. In this article, we'll learn what Oban is, how it works, and how to instrument it using AppSignal.

Today we're thrilled to announce the general availability of Hybrid Tables in all AWS commercial regions. As part of Snowflake Unistore, Hybrid Tables unify both transactional and analytical workloads on a single database to simplify architectures as well as governance and security.

Speed is everything in today's fast-moving business world. For software developers, this means the race is on to get new apps to market faster and better than competitors. In light of this constant pressure to deliver, it's no surprise that the demand for hybrid development continues to rise. After all, with one codebase that runs on multiple platforms, how can you go wrong? In reality the choice is not always so clear-cut.

Your organization has decided to make the leap to SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, a strategic choice that offers improved performance, advanced analytics, and more efficient support for your business operations. While this cloud ERP offers streamlined processes and improved scalability, it also limits the level of customization that finance teams have come to rely on for tailored, actionable insights. The result post-migration?

Legacy applications pose multiple problems for data-driven organizations like yours. Outdated software might no longer receive support and maintenance from its vendor or might not integrate with modern technologies like cloud computing. Still, these applications are essential for day-to-day business tasks, and replacing them could impede productivity and profitability.

Getting different teams, business units and even companies to work together toward a common goal not only maximizes efficiency, but drives innovation. Effective collaboration on data and AI has never been more closely tied to success. At Snowflake, we’re removing the barriers that prevent productive cooperation while building the connections to make working together easier than ever.

Development teams and product managers have many variables that affect their daily processes, but perhaps the most impactful is the nature of their development environment. Having a proper development environment can fundamentally change the efficacy of an entire engineering team, unlocking incredible productivity and iterative development at scale.

The wealth management industry is on the cusp of transformative change as we approach 2025. The sector, long considered a bastion of stability, now faces a confluence of forces reshaping its foundations. From generational wealth transfer to the integration of cutting-edge technologies like AI and blockchain, firms must evolve rapidly to meet the expectations of a new generation of investors.

This fall, thousands of leaders in the financial services industry gathered at the annual Money 20/20 conference to talk trends in payments, compliance, fraud reduction, treasury and transactions and more. Conversations centered on the theme of “Human x Machine,” and while AI was a focus, there were plenty of other insights around real-time data analytics, security considerations and customer strategies that are guiding the future of money.
