The software testing landscape, while crucial for ensuring application quality, has grappled with limitations in traditional methods for decades. This article explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a game-changer, addressing these challenges and augmenting the capabilities of testers. By combining advanced machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, and other techniques, AI offers a powerful toolkit to propel software testing into a new era.

A data catalog is a central inventory of organizational data. It provides a comprehensive view of all data assets in an organization, including databases, tables, files, and data sources. Efficiently managing large amounts of information is crucial for companies to stay competitive. This practice is especially applicable to large organizations with scattered data.

The AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) lets you build serverless applications with the expressive power of a programming language like TypeScript. The CDK defines cloud infrastructure in code and deploys via AWS CloudFormation. In this post, we will build a Lambda function, an AWS Gateway API, and an S3 bucket to upload CSV files. The API will take requests in JSON and seamlessly convert them to CSV format. We will use the AWS CDK in TypeScript to reliably deploy our app through AWS CloudFormation. Ready?

As organizations seek to drive more value from their data, observability plays a vital role in ensuring the performance, security and reliability of applications and pipelines while helping to reduce costs. At Snowflake, we aim to provide developers and engineers with the best possible observability experience to monitor and manage their Snowflake environment. One of our partners in this area is Observe, which offers a SaaS observability product that is built and operated on the Data Cloud.

Perhaps it's the awe-inspiring films about space exploration (my personal favorite – Apollo 13) that evoke the image of NASA as a place buzzing with activity, filled with screens displaying data, charts, and ALWAYS a big countdown clock. However, one of NASA's most recent challenges may surprise you - the task of cracking open a billion-dollar canister filled with ancient asteroid dust.

The use of advanced robotics in the industrial automation industry is growing, helping organizations to save time and accelerate production. Extensive use of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in smart factories, advanced sensors, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), and connected devices and processes across distributed locations enable human-robot interaction (HRI) like never before.

Human resource (HR) data integration connects your organization's disparate data sources, allowing them to "talk", which gives you clear insights into your company and its people resources. But how do you implement HR data integration? What are the challenges and benefits? Learn more about integrating HR data here.
