Sibros’ Connected Vehicle Platform on Google Cloud delivers OTA data updates, collection, and commands with the flexibility and scale of the cloud
To quote Hemingway: change happens gradually, then suddenly. We see this in the world around us. Think back to 2019. There’s no denying how much the pandemic reshaped our professional and personal lives, with technology driving this change at massive scale. Yet these changes, despite their ubiquity, are really the culmination of trends like cloud and automation that were well underway.
A recent headline in Wired magazine read “Uber Hack’s Devastation Is Just Starting to Reveal Itself.” There is no corporation that wants that headline and the reputational damage and financial loss it may cause. In the case of Uber it was a relatively simple attack using an approach called Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) fatigue. This is when an attacker takes advantage of authentication systems that require account owners to approve a log in.
I’ve encountered a thousand different problems with spreadsheets, data importing, and flat files over the last 20 years. While there are new tools that help make the most of this data, it's not always simple. I’ve distilled this list down to the most common issues among all the databases I’ve worked with. I’m giving you my favorite magic fixes here. (Well, okay, they aren’t really “magic” but some of them took me a long time to figure out.)
Businesses have been scaling rapidly in the cloud, driven by the pandemic and lured by the promise of agility and flexibility. But here’s a dirty little secret anyone who works in data knows.

We all love how Google revolutionized this world by bringing spreadsheets to the cloud.
