Accelerate with APIs: Apigee API monitoring, extensions and hosted targets now generally available

APIs are a key way businesses operate at the speed and scale necessary for today’s economy. We designed Apigee, Google Cloud’s full lifecycle API Management platform, to give businesses control over, and visibility into, the APIs that connect applications and data across the enterprise and across clouds. Apigee was recently recognized by Gartner as a leader in the 2018 Magic Quadrant for Full Life Cycle API Management.

3rd-Generation Business Intelligence (Part II)

For part two of this blog I’m seated in a café in Sydney Harbour in the shadow of the Opera House and in full view of Sydney Harbour Bridge. Why’s that significant? Well it’s not really, other than this is the 2nd stop on our Data Revolution Tour where the keynote I delivered was essentially on this very topic. Let me explain.

How Traveloka built a Data Provisioning API on a BigQuery-based microservice architecture

To build and develop an advanced data ecosystem is the dream of any data team, yet that often means understanding how the business will need to store and process that data. As Traveloka’s data engineers, one of our most important obligations is to custom-tailor our data delivery tools for each individual team in our company, so that the business can benefit from the data it generates.

Cloudera 2.0: Cloudera and Hortonworks Merge to form a Big Data Super Power

We’ve all dreamed of going to bed one day and waking up the next with superpowers – stronger, faster and even perhaps with the ability to fly.

As an entrepreneur and a CEO of a startup, I think it’s vital to have a mentor. You often come to critical junctures and that’s when it can be invaluable to speak to someone. You can’t talk to your colleagues though because you need to motivate them and keep the organization growing. That’s why having an external mentor is very helpful.

How to transfer BigQuery tables between locations with Cloud Composer

BigQuery is a fast, highly scalable, cost-effective, and fully-managed enterprise data warehouse for analytics at any scale. As BigQuery has grown in popularity, one question that often arises is how to copy tables across locations in an efficient and scalable manner. BigQuery has some limitations for data management, one being that the destination dataset must reside in the same location as the source dataset that contains the table being copied.

3rd-Generation Business Intelligence (Part I)

I’m seated here on the balcony of our rented apartment in Chamonix looking up at Mont Blanc. It’s an incredible view but its beauty is deceiving and as anyone who has climbed knows, all too often the summit is not the one you can see. In the case of Mont Blanc, the perspective is such that the Dôme du Goûter seen in the foreground often looks bigger. I can assure you it’s not.
