Setting Up a Multi-tenant Phoenix App for Elixir

Apps built with Elixir can support massive scalability, real-time interactivity, great fault tolerance, and the language's syntax is actually a joy to use. Elixir is a natural fit for applications such as chat apps, data dashboard apps, and anything needed to support a large userbase. In this article, we'll use Elixir — specifically, the web framework Phoenix — to build a multi-tenant link shortening app. Let's get started!

Log4net for .NET Logging: The Only Tutorial and 14 Tips You Need to Know

If you’ve been writing code for any reasonable amount of time, then it’s virtually impossible that you haven’t handled logging in any way, since it’s one of the most essential parts of modern, “real life” app development. If you’re a.NET developer, then you’ve probably used some of the many famous logging frameworks available for use on this platform. Today’s post will cover one of these frameworks: log4net.

API Generation vs. ELT/ETL | Key Differences

Organizations often grapple with the choice between two distinct but equally vital technologies: API generation and ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) solutions. While both serve as essential tools, they stand at opposite ends of the data management spectrum. API generation focuses on facilitating real-time data access and dynamic communication between software applications, whereas ELT specializes in the consolidation, transformation, and preparation of data for analytics.

Implications of the AI Executive Order for Government Procurement Systems

Artificial intelligence holds the potential to enhance efficiency, streamline processes, and improve decision-making across various government sectors. But without robust safeguards, there is a heightened risk of biased decision-making, privacy breaches, and misuse of sensitive data. The Biden administration’s AI executive order establishes new standards for AI safety and security as well as for responsible use of AI at federal agencies and in state and local governments.
