Recently, we took another look at our Chicago crime dataset to see what was different in crime as a result of the COVID-19 lockdown and what we found was fascinating. This is a dataset provided by the City of Chicago that tracks any type of reported crime. We often use it to demonstrate the power of Yellowfin. The first thing we saw was that a lot of crime went down. This chart shows crime rates in Chicago over the past two years.

The decision tree algorithm - used within an ensemble method like the random forest - is one of the most widely used machine learning algorithms in real production settings.

With Fivetran handling ELT, ASICS Digital engineers spend time on data science and machine learning projects to propel the business forward.

In an ideal world where we reached 100% test coverage, our error handling was flawless, and all our failures were handled gracefully — in a world where all our systems reached perfection, we wouldn’t be having this discussion. Yet, here we are. Earth, 2020. By the time you read this sentence, somebody’s server failed in production. A moment of silence for the processes we lost.

Stackify Retrace pricing is changing. We’re moving away from our old device-based billing to a modern usage-based billing. This means you’ll pick a plan based on the exact amount of projected logs and performance traces you collect and nothing more. You’re probably wondering why and what’s in it for me. Stackify has one core belief that has guided us since our inception and will never change.

In our last two posts, we talked with Deloitte’s Marc Beierschoder and Martin Mannion respectively about the requirement organizations have to deploy their data and analytics, quickly, into a hybrid environment. On top of that, there is the fundamental aspect of consistent security and governance of your enterprise data cloud and need for multiple users with different requirements to access data flexibly.

This blog post will present a simple “hello world” kind of example on how to get data that is stored in S3 indexed and served by an Apache Solr service hosted in a Data Discovery and Exploration cluster in CDP. For the curious: DDE is a pre-templeted Solr-optimized cluster deployment option in CDP, and recently released in tech preview. We will only cover AWS and S3 environments in this blog.

With the third generation of BI upon us, analytics solutions are leveraging AI to generate insights, automate tasks, and support new types of interactions. Qlik is consistently recognized as a leader in augmented analytics, and with the September 2020 release, we’ve set the bar even higher.

It’s September. Students are back to school, whether that is in person or remote. Here in the States, we just celebrated the unofficial end of Summer with Labor Day. Things are likely picking up where you are, which makes it the perfect time to focus on test execution to put yourself ahead. Quality at the expense of speed, or speed at the expense of quality, is likely a challenge you have faced in your development journey.

Innovation is a topic of conversation in almost every enterprise, but a related topic that sometimes goes under-discussed is co-innovation—that is, the idea that enterprises can unlock a lot of powerful business innovation by partnering outside the organization. Often called a digital ecosystems strategy, this tactic involves different participants sharing data, functionality, and other digital assets for symbiotic benefit.
