Shift left to write data once, read as tables or streams

Shift Left is a rethink of how we circulate, share and manage data in our organizations using DataStreams, Change Data Capture, FlinkSQL and Tableflow. It addresses the challenges with multi-hop and medallion architectures using batch pipelines by shifting the data preparation, cleaning and schemas to the point where data is created and as a result, you can build fresh trustworthy datasets as streams for operational use cases or Apache Iceberg tables for analytical use cases.

EP11: Cell-Based Architecture

In this special edition, hosts Sanjiva and Asanka are joined by WSO2 co-founder Paul Fremantle for an in-person recording in the studio. Sanjiva leads the discussion, while Paul and Asanka, co-authors of the cell-based architecture, share their insights and experiences. Together, they explore the core principles of cell-based architecture, its practical applications, and how it reshapes modern software architecture.

The Real Cost of Ignoring Red Alerts in Software Quality

57% of consumers are willing to switch to a competitor after three or four negative interactions. And that's being generous—sometimes it only takes one or two. Companies can’t afford to ignore red alerts anymore. Take Amazon's checkout flow, for example. It always works because they prioritize testing it rigorously to ensure their core business can generate revenue, even if other features are less polished.

Using GitLab With Helix QAC

There are many ways to integrate Helix QAC static analysis within a continuous integration system like GitLab. Helix QAC's full CI/CD integration accelerates the development pipeline and provides maximum flexibility across the entire organization. In this video, we demonstrate the GitLab and Helix QAC integration with a merge request example. Watch to see how easy it is to compare branches, find and fix issues, and automate CI analysis during key phases of development.
