How to Distribute Machine Learning Workloads with Dask

Tell us if this sounds familiar. You’ve found an awesome data set that you think will allow you to train a machine learning (ML) model that will accomplish the project goals; the only problem is the data is too big to fit in the compute environment that you’re using. In the day and age of “big data,” most might think this issue is trivial, but like anything in the world of data science things are hardly ever as straightforward as they seem.

Data Governance and Strategy for the Global Enterprise

While the word “data” has been common since the 1940s, managing data’s growth, current use, and regulation is a relatively new frontier. Governments and enterprises are working hard today to figure out the structures and regulations needed around data collection and use. According to Gartner, by 2023 65% of the world’s population will have their personal data covered under modern privacy regulations.

Serverless NiFi Flows with DataFlow Functions: The Next Step in the DataFlow Service Evolution

Cloudera DataFlow for the Public Cloud (CDF-PC) is a cloud-native service for Apache NiFi within the Cloudera Data Platform (CDP). CDF-PC enables organizations to take control of their data flows and eliminate ingestion silos by allowing developers to connect to any data source anywhere with any structure, process it, and deliver to any destination using a low-code authoring experience.

Announcing GA of DataFlow Functions

Today, we’re excited to announce that DataFlow Functions (DFF), a feature within Cloudera DataFlow for the Public Cloud, is now generally available for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. DFF provides an efficient, cost optimized, scalable way to run NiFi flows in a completely serverless fashion. This is the first complete no-code, no-ops development experience for functions, allowing users to save time and resources.

The Top Three Entangled Trends in Data Architectures: Data Mesh, Data Fabric, and Hybrid Architectures

Data teams have the impossible task of delivering everything (data and workloads) everywhere (on premise and in all clouds) all at once (with little to no latency). They are being bombarded with literature about seemingly independent new trends like data mesh and data fabric while dealing with the reality of having to work with hybrid architectures. Each of these trends claim to be complete models for their data architectures to solve the “everything everywhere all at once” problem.

Improve Underwriting Using Data and Analytics

Insurance carriers are always looking to improve operational efficiency. We’ve previously highlighted opportunities to improve digital claims processing with data and AI. In this post, I’ll explore opportunities to enhance risk assessment and underwriting, especially in personal lines and small and medium-sized enterprises.

SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management)

The identity team at Cloudera has been working to add the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) support to Cloudera Data Platform (CDP) and we’re happy to announce the general availability of SCIM on Azure Active Directory! In Part One we discussed: CDP SCIM Support for Active Directory, which discusses the core elements of CDP’s SCIM support for Azure AD.

A Flexible and Efficient Storage System for Diverse Workloads

Apache Ozone is a distributed, scalable, and high-performance object store, available with Cloudera Data Platform (CDP), that can scale to billions of objects of varying sizes. It was designed as a native object store to provide extreme scale, performance, and reliability to handle multiple analytics workloads using either S3 API or the traditional Hadoop API.
