Flutter, introduced by Google, is an open-source software development kit (SDK) that enables developers to create high-quality and high-performance cross-platform applications for mobile, web, desktop, and embedded apps with a single codebase.

Over the past handful of years, systems architecture has evolved from monolithic approaches to applications and platforms that leverage containers, schedulers, lambda functions, and more across heterogeneous infrastructures. Cloudera Data Platform (CDP) is no different: it’s a hybrid data platform that meets organizations’ needs to get to grips with complex data anywhere, turning it into actionable insight quickly and easily.

Are you tired of typing out long lines of code? Do you wish there was a faster way to write code without sacrificing readability? Look no further than shorthand programming! Shorthand allows you to write code in a more abbreviated syntax, saving your time and effort. But what exactly is shorthand programming and how can you use it to your advantage? In programming, shorthand refers to a way of writing code using abbreviated syntax.

The value of embedded analytics is unmistakable. Application teams that embed dashboards and reports drive revenue, reduce customer churn, and differentiate their software from the competition. While embedded dashboards create real value, they can also come with real costs. These costs are not always visible when companies plan for their analytics offering but can significantly impact production, scale, and the speed of bringing analytics to market.

Today, many web applications will feature pages that are publicly available — like a homepage — and more secure ones where a user has to log in to get access. The process of user registration, logging in, and tracking user session state is called "authentication". At the same time, when dealing with logged-in users, it's necessary to separate actions and resources that are available to them depending on their user roles. For example, "admins" generally have more access than normal users.

Databases are organized collections of data stored in a server or a system elsewhere and can be retrieved upon need. They can be managed and even updated as and when the need arises. This data can be in the form of texts, images, integers, or multimedia files. SQL uses a standard query language to manage relational databases. You must have heard of MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL servers.

Application Modernization projects often require their workloads to run on multiple platforms which requires a hybrid model. Kong Konnect is an API lifecycle management platform delivered as a service. The Control Plane, responsible for admin tasks, is hosted in the cloud by Kong. The Data Plane, totally based on Kong Gateway, can be deployed across multiple environments including VMs, Kubernetes, Docker, etc.
