Set up a Cypress Test Project with Github Actions

In this tutorial, you will see how to set up a app project file cloned from the public `Swag Labs` web app provided by Sauce Labs, and create your own GitHub repository. Setup secrets in Github, and create the YAML file in the .github/workflows directory that will allow you to build & test the app using GitHub actions. Set the events in testrunner.yml that trigger the workflow to run, as well as the environment variables. The following video will show you how to set up and run the jobs.

This round of hiring usually takes place after seed funding has been secured and some semblance of initial product/market fit has been achieved.

BI Tool Integrations for Heroku Postgres

Heroku is a powerful platform for application development. Users can build and deploy on the cloud, and you can effortlessly scale up once your app takes off. And behind every app, you'll find an equally powerful database: Heroku Postgres. If you're building Heroku apps, you'll find them to be a rich source of operational and customer data. Add in the right Business Intelligence (BI) tools, and you'll be able to derive insights about the inner workings of your organization.

Cloudera Data Engineering - Integration steps to leverage spark on Kubernetes

CDE enables you to spend more time on your applications, and less time on infrastructure. CDE allows you to create, manage, and schedule Apache Spark jobs without the overhead of creating and maintaining Spark clusters.

No Data Loss and No Service Interruption - HDF to CFM Rolling Migration

The blog “Migrating Apache NiFi Flows from HDF to CFM with Zero Downtime” detailed how many common NiFi dataflows can be easily migrated when the Hortonworks DataFlow and Cloudera Flow Management clusters are running side-by-side. But what if you lack the resources to run multiple NiFi clusters concurrently? Not a problem.
