This blog post is a first of a series on how to leverage PyTorch’s ecosystem tools to easily jumpstart your ML / DL project. The first part of this blog describes common problems appearing when developing ML / DL solutions, and the second describes a simple image classification example demonstrating how to use Allegro Trains and PyTorch to address those problems.

Desktop Application Testing vs Web Application Testing

There are lots of applications that users use these days. Some are accessed via the internet while some of them are installed on the user’s computer. The former being categorized as the web-based applications while the latter falling into the desktop applications category.

Node.js Resiliency Concepts: The Circuit Breaker

In 2009 Node.js opened up a door for front-end developers to dip their toes into the world of servers without having to leave the comfort of their language. It’s almost effortless to get started with Node. You can basically copy-paste an entire HTTP server into existence and then install an ODM and you’ve got your CRUD app ready to roll! However, if we’ve learned anything from the amazing Spider-Man, it’s that with great power, comes great responsibility.

How Do I View My Elasticsearch Mappings?

There are two ways you can view the current mappings on your Logit ELK Stacks. One way is to use dev tools in Kibana. You can access Kibana from any of your dashboards by choosing from your dashboard Stack settings > Access Kibana. You can also search for a specific mapping of an Index name. For example if we wanted to see the mappings for the a Filebeat index name we can run the following to return only the desired mappings.

Predicting 1st Day Churn in Real Time

Survival analysis is one of the most developed fields of statistical modeling, with many real-world applications. In the realm of mobile apps and games, retention is one of the initial focuses of the publisher once the app or game has been launched. And it remains a significant focus throughout most of the lifecycle of any endeavor.

4 Best Practices for Harnessing the Power of Test Data

At Sauce Labs, we define Continuous Testing as a “best practice approach to software quality that involves testing earlier and more often throughout the development lifecycle.” Teams that adopt continuous testing realize a number of benefits, including fewer bugs found in production, faster release cycles, and overall improved customer experience. Another rarely discussed benefit is that as the number of quality checkpoints increases, so does the volume of test data and quality signals.

It Takes Two to Kafka: AWS MSK + DataOps

I ordered a ride share recently from a beach; the app struggled to find a car, so I had to make several requests. After the fourth or fifth attempt, my bank alerted me to possible fraudulent activity on my credit card via SMS. Each time I ordered a ride, the service put a pending charge on my card.

Aside from ensuring each service is working properly, one of the most challenging parts of managing a cloud-based infrastructure is cost monitoring. There are countless services to keep track of—including storage, databases, and computation—each with their own complex pricing structure. Monitoring cloud costs is quite different from other organizational costs in that it can be difficult to detect anomalies in real-time and accurately forecast monthly costs.
