Why Data Chain of Custody is Essential to Reducing Product Liability Risks

When a market grows as quickly as implantable medical devices, set to top a staggering $153.8 billion by 2026, the potential risk to patients can rise as well. As implantable medical devices proliferate, so do the number of costly, life-threatening, and reputation-tarnishing recalls. A single large recall can account for millions of device units.

A Comprehensive Guide to Migrating from Python 2 (Legacy Python) to Python 3

Python powers many applications we use in our day-to-day like Reddit, Instagram, Dropbox, and Spotify. The adoption of Python 3 has been a subject of debate in the Python community. While Python 3 has been out for more than a decade now, there wasn’t much incentive to migrate from the stable Python 2.7 in the earlier releases.

Debugging Workflows Two Ways

Today, service architecture is becoming increasingly complex with the explosion of new software techniques such as microservices. However, the performance of a system often is dependent on engineers’ ability to debug gnarly problems. The increase in complexity that comes with new microservices architectures makes debugging that much harder. In fact, some companies are considering reverting back to monoliths because of the increased difficulty of debugging, among a host of other challenges.

What is Continuous Application Improvement?

CAI stands for Continuous Application Improvement. It is a software improvement process that is implemented at each step of the SDLC, ensuring immediate feedback at each step rather than waiting till risk levels and impact has gone up. When you implement CAI you shift your improvement process as far left as possible and you catch software bugs and performance problems where they are introduced, eliminating countless hours of time spent chasing issues.

Real-time log aggregation with Apache Flink Part 2

We are continuing our blog series about implementing real-time log aggregation with the help of Flink. In the first part of the series we reviewed why it is important to gather and analyze logs from long-running distributed jobs in real-time. We also looked at a fairly simple solution for storing logs in Kafka using configurable appenders only. As a reminder let’s review our pipeline again
