Two years ago we wrote a research report about Federated Learning. We’re pleased to make the report available to everyone, for free. You can read it online here: Federated Learning. Federated Learning is a paradigm in which machine learning models are trained on decentralized data. Instead of collecting data on a single server or data lake, it remains in place—on smartphones, industrial sensing equipment, and other edge devices—and models are trained on-device.

As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting Government regulations and standards in our enterprise solutions, including data protection, Cloudera recently introduced a version of our Cloudera Data Platform, Private Cloud Base product (7.1.5 release) that can be configured to use FIPS compliant cryptography.

Snowflake connected with Margaret Sherman of Sonos at Data Cloud Summit 2020 to hear how the company is using the Data Cloud to understand customer preferences and enhance listening experiences. In a world where people are surrounded by a lot of noise, purity of sound in music and other content we seek out in the comfort of our homes can offer a welcome respite. There are lessons to be learned from a company reinventing home audio for today and tomorrow—and using the Data Cloud to do it.

The ability to discover insights from past events, transactions and interactions is how many customers currently utilize Qlik. Qlik’s unique approach to Business Intelligence (BI) using an in-memory engine and intuitive interface has democratized BI for typical business users, who usually have little to no technical savvy. But, for many years, organizations have only been able to analyze metrics or KPIs of “what has happened” (i.e., descriptive analytics).

It’s perhaps difficult to remember life before smartphones. Today, mobile phones have transformed dramatically to become the information and communication hub fundamental to modern life: from paying for your next meal to tracking your sleep habits. This explosion of the mobile industry puts testing professionals under pressure to keep up with speed without sacrificing their mobile apps’ quality.

Our ongoing goal at Rookout, the Live Debugging company, is to turn the debugging of live, remote applications into something that every developer can easily do as part of their daily workflow. Recently, we have taken this challenge one step further. What if we could make it so developers were also able to solve performance issues on a daily basis as well? Some recent additions we made to the Rookout platform are the first step towards turning that vision into a reality.

Whoa! Another prediction season is already upon us. Shaped by the fast-moving aftershocks of the COVID-19 crisis, 2021 promises to be a time of change. As usual, we made our predictions list and checked it twice. But rather than guess the future, we asked experts, business leaders, and big thinkers to help us size up noteworthy trends and technologies that should be on your radar in 2021 and beyond. Here’s a quick rundown of what we found out.

It is important that web applications are optimized to ensure the best application performance for the end user. PHP developers can improve website performance by load testing their PHP website. Load testing checks the rigidity, speed, interoperability of the system, and the performance and the reliability of a PHP website.

Your data can quickly get out of control when you’re working with multiple cloud storage services and applications throughout your organization. Complex cloud ecosystems can make it difficult to know what data you have, how it’s being managed, whether it’s safe, and how to use it effectively. Cloud data management platforms can stop this frustrating scenario in its tracks.
