We describe how we achieve high change agility in data engineering by eliminating the fear of breaking downstream data pipelines through end-to-end pipeline testing, and by using schema metaprogramming to safely eliminate boilerplate involved in changes that affect whole pipelines.
A quick poll on agility in changing pipelines from end to end indicated a huge span in capabilities. For the question "How long time does it take for all downstream pipelines to be adapted to an upstream change," the median response was 6 months, but some respondents could do it in less than a day. When quantitative data engineering differences between the best and worst are measured, the span is often 100x-1000x, sometimes even more.
A long time ago, we suffered at Spotify from fear of changing pipelines due to not knowing what the impact might be downstream. We made plans for a technical solution to test pipelines end-to-end to mitigate that fear, but the effort failed for cultural reasons. We eventually solved this challenge, but in a different context. In this presentation we will describe how we test full pipelines effectively by manipulating workflow orchestration, which enables us to make changes in pipelines without fear of breaking downstream.
Making schema changes that affect many jobs also involves a lot of toil and boilerplate. Using schema-on-read mitigates some of it, but has drawbacks since it makes it more difficult to detect errors early. We will describe how we have rejected this tradeoff by applying schema metaprogramming, eliminating boilerplate but keeping the protection of static typing, thereby further improving agility to quickly modify data pipelines without fear.
Open Source Contributions to Postgres: The Basics POSETTE 2024ElizabethGarrettChri
Postgres is the most advanced open-source database in the world and it's supported by a community, not a single company. So how does this work? How does code actually get into Postgres? I recently had a patch submitted and committed and I want to share what I learned in that process. I’ll give you an overview of Postgres versions and how the underlying project codebase functions. I’ll also show you the process for submitting a patch and getting that tested and committed.

The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Dell was fined $4 million for fake and misleading advertising about PCs sold to consumers in
New York. While in New Orleans, there are two companies which claim Dell is selling a
surveillance camera system by conspiring with city officials. This shows that Dell is being
interrupted by the legality of their actions in different countries. ..........................................62

The Power of Suppliers:........................................................................................................64
HP negotiating energy of providers is great. There are large amount of providers for every
element areas of the PC, for example, one can make a PC by using element areas from different
providers, including hard disk drive, DVD drive, observe, etc. Microsoft and Apple have
tremendous negotiating energy against the PC producers. There are great changing costs. .........64
Competitive Rivalry:.............................................................................................................64
Competition is high. For example, cost, when one company functions to secure its place by
decreasing the cost of PCs,it will impact other organizations. This implies all other
organizations may want to reduced their cost in order to entice the clients. There is also
reducing productivity. Since the organizations offer their PCs in a low cost, they will make less
benefit..............................................................................................................................64
Dell Porter five forces.......................................................................................................64

PORTER FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS...........................................................................64
Dell is very popular for custom-built PC and other computer relevant items and promoting
them online. Dell is very effective with regards to working with its providers and
maintaining the stock near to zero level which allows the company to evolve JIT technique
which decreases the costs to the ultimate customer. .........................................................64
The bargaining power of suppliers..................................................................................64
Threat of new Entrants...................................................................................................66
As it has been mentioned by Eileen Dell, his only worry about his company kingdom is the
chance of new newcomers to the industry who could negatively impact his company. And
moreover, Dell’s new technique is the item diversification; therefore,almost all digital
organizations are prospective newcomers to this new industry. ............................................66
Bargaining power of Customers.........................................................................................66
Availability of substitutes:.................................................................................................67
In the computer market this is a very extremely present. A lot of items such as a laptop
computer, an eye or cell cellular phones provide the same services and are therefore
exchangeable. Only if items are very particular such as for example the illustrating program;
Photoshop a alternative would be hard to alternative. Things that will help tie clients to the
product or item, would be good item difference, reduced costs, react o technological
innovation changes and being impressive........................................................................67
COMPETITIVE RIVALRY...........................................................................................67
Competitors among opponents is extremely affected by the above described four causes. Dell is
coming into into a international industry and given the durability of these causes in international
situation, competition for dell is very high. .............................................................................67

organization ideal needs and would simultaneously serve to
• increase client satisfaction
• cut costs
• reduce how long required to present impressive products to the industry.
All of these goals have been recognized as critical factors that will impact Dell's future
success.TQM techniques result in the enhancement of impressive capabilities, the ability
to surpass customers’ top quality goals and the removal of handling efficiency to cut
expenses (allowing Dell to offer better performing features at the relatively low prices
expected by Its customers).
Thus, an effective TQM program will help Dell develop theflexibility needed to
recognize opportunities to apply itsintegrated cost leadership/differentiation strategy.
Because TQMsystems are available to all opponents, they may help thecompany maintain
aggressive equality, but hardly ever will theyunilaterally lead to a aggressive advantage.

SWOT Analysis Hewlett Packard
This SWOT analysis is about Hewlett Packard.
Strengths
Strong MarketPosition:
Recently (April 2010), Hewlett-Packard’s shares closed at $53.15. According to
28. 28
NASDAQ, the stock is up 62% in the past year, better than the market at large.
This continues a trend that saw the company ease pass the previous global pc
leader Dell in 2006. In 2008 Hewlett Packard led Dell with over 17% of the PC
Market while Dell settled for second at 14%. In addition Hewlett Packard can
boast of a 30% of the global server market. Its domination of the global printer
market is evidenced by its 40% market share. In 2008 Hewlett Packard took a
major step in strengthening its position in the IT services market by acquiring ED
SuccessfulStrategic Acquisitions:
Hewlett Packard continues its trend of recognizing and capitalizing on strategic
acquisitions. The company’s major mergers and acquisitions in recent past
include Compaq Computer Corporation in 2002, Mercury Interactive in 2006 and
Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS) in 2008. In November of 2009,
Hewlett Packard announced that it had reached an agreement to acquire 3Com, a
provider of computer network equipment, for $2.7 billion in a deal that H.P. plans
as a the beginning of an assault on the market leader in networking, Cisco
Systems. Computer networking is a $40 billion-a-year market with high profit
margins that is growing briskly and dominated by Cisco, which has so far had
little head-to-head competition. The company’s successful inorganic growth
allows it to increase its competitiveness as well as create value for both investors
and customers of the company.
Weaknesses
Weak Market Segment Integration:
Although Hewlett Packard is currently addressing its lack of presence in some
seemingly obvious segments, there remains room for improvement. The
company’s portfolio of offerings lack significant software product or manage
consulting services when compared to major competitors including, Accenture,
EMC and IBM. For example, both IBM and Accenture are establishing
29. 29
management consulting divisions so as to provide more comprehensive and
integrated range of services. Recently, Hewlett Packard has partnered with
Thomson e Ximius to provide front office processes for private client wealth
management firms to support the increasingly sophisticated needs of their
customers.
Opportunities
Expanding presence in cloud computing market:
Cloud computing describes a new delivery model for IT services. In July 2008,
HP along with Intel Corporation and Yahoo! created a global, multi-data center,
open source test bed for cloud computing research and education. The goal of the
project was to promote collaboration among industry, academy and governments
by removing the financial and logistical barriers. In 2009, HP announced HP
Cloud Assure, a new SaaS offering designed to assist businesses to safely and
effectively adopt cloud-based services. HP Cloud Assure consists of HP services
and software, including HP Application Security Center, HP Performance Center
and HP Business Availability Center. These solutions are delivered to customers
though HP SaaS platform. The increasing demand for cloud computing is likely to
create demand for HP’s solutions in coming years. The global spending on cloud
computing is forecast to cross a value of over $40 billion by 2012.
Expanding portfolio of imaging and printing solutions:
Hewlett Packard has made several strategic acquisitions and introduced new
products in the imaging solutions segment in recent times. Its imaging solutions
strategy entails the commercial markets, from print services solutions to new
growth opportunities in commercial printing and capturing high-value pages in
areas such as industrial applications, outdoor signage, and graphic arts. Among
those key acquisitions are Tabblo, Logoworks, MacDermid and ColorSpan.
HP has launched several retail photo printing solutions and services that provide
consumers the tools to personalize their photos and publish customized creative
30. 30
output. In addition, it has introduced new digital printing technologies, HP Inkjet
Web Press, HP Latex Inks and three HP Indigo presses, as part of its graphic arts
offerings. In October 2008, it also announced a plan to launch full wireless HP
Photo smart printer lineup by 2010.
Threats
Projecteddecreasesin the IT markets:
Forecasters predict a decrease in the worldwide demand for various IT products
offered by HP. The economic slowdown has negatively affected many market
segments, including information technology. Hewlett Packard has experienced
this decline not only in the U.S. but also in its global markets. Worldwide
spending on IT was predicted to decline by 4% in 2009.
SuccessfulStrategic Acquisitions:
Hewlett Packard continues its trend of recognizing and capitalizing on strategic
acquisitions. The company’s major mergers and acquisitions in recent past
include Compaq Computer Corporation in 2002, Mercury Interactive in 2006 and
Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS) in 2008. In November of 2009,
Hewlett Packard announced that it had reached an agreement to acquire 3Com, a

IN America people are educated. Most of the businesses are working on computer
technology and the environment is innovative. There are a lot of opportunities for
companies to make new informative and innovative products. Most of the multinational
computer industries belong to USA. The computer industry has flourished in this country,
because it has not been vigorously regulated by foolish government guidelines, until now.
So due to these reasons IT Industry has greatest market share in America.
In Europe, although people are educated and environment is innovative but it has less
multinational computer industries, due to this reason it has fewer shares than USA.
In Asia as environment is not so innovative that multinational companies could explore
IT industries. Mostly businesses are manual, so due to this reason it has fewer market
share rather than others.

Market Size
Computer industry consists of hardware, software, service and an endless array of
products our group chose to narrow the research to PC’s. The worldwide PC market
finished 2004 on a strong note, with double-digit percentage growth for the year,
according to research released by IDC and Gartner.

Scope of competitor rivalry
The competition within the PC industry is extraordinarily cutthroat. The top
companies consist of Dell, HP, Apple, Gateway and Sony.
A few factors of competitive edge:
• New technology
• Custom built PCs
• Reliability
• Customer Service
Stage in Life Cycle
The stage of the PC industry life cycle can be described as mature. However, the
growth of PC sales has not decreased due to the globalization trend taking place
within the multinational corporations.
Customers
Involving interests of the PC community can be described as diverse. Advantages
consist across the board for the PC user. Ranging from music manipulation,
video enhancement, money management, research, school, science and a myriad
51. 51
of others; there are many uses for the PC. Therefore this means the customers
that buy the computers are diverse and use their machines in a variety of ways.
The computer offers an efficient way of running a business, playing a game or
managing your calendar. The bottom line is that any person can find a useful
attribute for a computer: which provides the industry with revenue higher than the
auto and chemical industries combined.
Technology/Innovation
Technologies as well as innovation are advancing every year, therefore making
the industry fiercer.
Ten years from now chances are there will be few computers in home. Instead,
people will be wearing computers -- implanted, for example, in eyeglasses, with
the retina as the screen -- according to IT pioneer and futurist Raymond Kurzweil.
Product characteristics
Components:
• Case - The box all the parts (except monitor, keyboard, mouse, and printer) are
stored in
• Mother Board - The main printed circuit board in the computer, which the CPU
(see below) plugs into
• CPU (CentralProcessing Unit) – The CPU is the actual "brains" of the computer
RAM (Random Access Memory) - Like pieces of scratch paper that information is
temporarily stored on ONLY WHILE you are actually working on the computer.
• Disk Controller – The Disk Controller allows your computer to interact with your
disk drive storage devices
52. 52
• Hard Disk Drive - A STORAGE device, NOT MEMORY! The Hard Disk Drive
is like a filing cabinet - no more, no less. Retrieval is faster, and finding things is
usually easier, but it is still just a filing cabinet.
• Video Display Adapter - Unlike your eyes, it can ONLY OUTPUT the computer
information in the form of a video signal that is human readable (via the monitor).
• Monitor - The actual display you see the words, pictures, and data on. There
are two main types: analog and digital.
• Input Device - Keyboard, Mouse, Digitizer, Scanner, Pen, Digital Camera, etc.
• Modem - A device that hooks your computer up to the telephone line
Scales Economies’
With most multinational corporations there are two separate economies operating
between the actual company and the markets. The separate economies are internal and
external.
Internal: Tech Economy, Managerial Economy, Financial Economy, Marketing
Economy, Research & Development
External: The external aspects of scale economies consist of the distribution centers
and retailers. For example; Apple, Sony or HP manufacture computers, while retailers
arrange for computer deliveries to the customer. One exception is Dell, which has
excelled in custom-built computers delivered straight to a consumer’s home.
Learning & Experience effect
The computer industry is mature and here to stay. In the US computers are found in most
homes with access to the Internet. Students are taught to use computers in school at a
young age and competency is only going to increase.
53. 53
However, there are people who struggle with applications and user activities such as
installing new drivers or connecting a monitor. One of the largest complaints within the
industry is support. Dell, once again is an exception. Dell observes great rewards when
consumers give praise in regards to customer service. Since the industry is so mature the
complaints are few due to the reliability of the PC.
Capital requirements
The capital required to enter and actually compete with the big names in the computer
industry are ridiculous. Taking into account that HP spent 3.9 billion on research and
development last year alone makes a person think twice about embarking in the industry.
New components and ideas are always being developed by the large companies, which
few can compete. Furthermore, the brand name products distributed by Apple, Dell and
HP are household names.
However, if a person is technologically savvy and creates new language or some sort of
new innovation they could sell the idea to the large companies. This would be the most
probable situation when attempting to create a profit within the PC business.
Industry profitability
The fact remains that the PC industry doesn’t produce only PC’s. Every company that
creates PC’s also has its hand in other industries and markets. An important question to
ask is how profitable is the industry. And the answer is billions upon billions upon
billions of dollars. The industry is constantly redefining itself as well as every other
business on the world due to its deep routes within every industry. As for what company
ranks the highest in profit at the moment is Apple, but the numbers are skewed due to
other hardware Apple provides. The industry is extremely competitive and profitable.

Suppliers / Buyers
Intel and Microsoft are the two most dominate suppliers in the PC industry.
Suppliers: Intel’s microprocessor chips are used in approximately 80% of personal
computers.
Microsoft operating systems are used in 90% of computers, giving it substantial
bargaining power.
Given that Microsoft and Intel control the majority of the PC supplier market of major
component parts, the business world has named the two “Wintel.”
Buyers: The strength of the PC buyer has basically evolved from the personal computer
becoming a commodity-like item.
Backward integration is also a factor in the strengthening of the PC buyers bargaining
Power because more and more people are building their own computer systems
Rivalry Among Existing Firms
The competition the personal computer industry is also an industry that resembles ‘follow
the leader.’ Follow the leader occurs when industry leaders are mimicked by competitors;
and those competitors that do not follow will fall off by the wayside.
Price Wars: Ex. In 1999 the average PC cost $ 1,699. Now the average price of a PC is
under a thousand dollar.

PESTEL Analysis HP
Political:
The governmental research of HP associated with govt manages and guidelines in
the attempt of HP to keep up with the Ecological and CSR (Corporate Public
Responsibility) Requirements and with regards to decency, quality and environmental
issues.
Economical:
HP mainly depends on revenue from its printing components, financial
investment strategies, investment strategies in method and small businesses and internet
solutions for its maintenance.
Social:
HP has the regional US customer platform well taken but it seems that there is
very little to be done here with regards to gaining the future younger creation of IT zealot
and unless there is a pressure upon upgrading the designs of its components for
publishing and PC’s to capture up with the buzz designed by HP and Apple who reveal
new designs almost every other month
Technological:
HP went “cyber” almost a several years ago, which is pretty latest in evaluation to
its 70 all year industry existence (HP, 2009). Actually the level of HP’s fortune came in
1998 when HP’s business application and assistance department and business techniques
department was combined and Ann Livermore took over to run this new Business
Processing Alternatives Company (ECSO), with an financial commitment of $15 billion
60. 60
dollars and an worker platform of 44,000 workers (Moore and Snyder, 2000).
Environmental:
HP’s functions are subject to rules under government, state, local and foreign laws
and rules concerning the environment, such as laws and rules dealing with the release of
contaminants into the air and water, the management and convenience of dangerous
ingredients and waste materials, and the clean-up of infected sites.
Legal:
Certain Change Regulation – As one of the biggest patent owners in U.S, HP is on
regular provided four patents every day. HP is a continuous focus on of trivial patent
legal cases. These legal cases power HP to redirect sources away from advancement and
service, resulting in reduced economic benefits from innovation.
PESTLE ANALYSIS Dell
The trends of the computer sector can be analysis by using PESTLE analysis which
includes governmental, economic, sociological, technical, legal, and environmental. I use
the pestle research to figure out the DELL macro atmosphere research.
Political
One of DELL’s major intimidations is relating to it all factor of the exterior atmosphere,
the governmental or legal atmosphere. The China govt prefers to advertise national PC
providers as evaluate to foreign companies and there are a lot of requirements involved in
obtaining govt agreements, which shows that local companies and companies in China is
more preferable by the China government. Another threat of Dell is that the internet
usage is being controlled by the China government which means the growth of internet is
being limited.
61. 61
Economic
The financial system is the characteristics and financial system route in which a company
plays or may contend. The problem of software piracy is the main risk that computer
companies suffer in China. China has a lot of economic opportunities as it has the highest
population amount, but the shortage of skilled labor is making China to suffer. DELL is
aware that cheaper system is more preferable in China.
Sociological
The public and public industry is adhere to carefully with a society’s behavior and public
principles. Dell has the possibilities to flourish into a new market as the prospective of
internet growth in China is tremendous. At the same time, due to the huge expense of
computer, China people are still unsure about card sales. Therefore, DELL has to offer
door-to-door or face-to-face functions to be able to improve consumers’ believe in and
consumers’ perception in the organization and item.
Technological
The technological sector consists of the agencies and activities which related with
inventing new technology into products, materials and processes. The main direction of
technology nowadays is everything become smaller and faster. Institution has proven a
key govt source by offering access to technological innovation designed. By the year
2000, it was observed that the annual PC production in mainland China would reach 7.6
million, making it the third largest in the world. With the help of internet, companies
have a great opportunity to get their name into the public area plus a fast way to custom
services to its customer segments. However, the high cost of using internet in China has
become a threat to Dell in the technology sector.
62. 62
Legal
Dell was fined $4 million for fake and misleading advertising about PCs sold to
consumers in New York. While in New Orleans, there are two companies which claim
Dell is selling a surveillance camera system by conspiring with city officials. This shows
that Dell is being interrupted by the legality of their actions in different countries.
Environmental
The target of Dell is to build a corporation culture for better awareness towards the
environment because of the values of environmental conservation, the efficiency of
eliminating waste which follows the values of the direct business model and is more
effective to deliver the value of customers.
Dell's goal is to be a careful attendant of the environment and to execute programs and
processes to ensure the operations and products are environmentally friendly. Other than
that, Dell is also trying to make the neighboring environment in society better for the
people who work and to generate strategic partnerships with organizations evenly
dedicated to environmental objectives.
Dell's direct business model guides their promise to straight meeting with employees,
customers and suppliers. Dell also engage in direct conversation with the investment
groups which are socially responsible, shareholder activists, and many variety of
nongovernmental groups that are looking for business meeting to uncover the global way
out for most of the public and environmental concerns.
63. 63
Porter’s Five Forces Analysis
Threat of Entry:
Risks of access in this case are average. There is low product commitment of
current companies. Customers usually evaluate the costs with different manufacturers
when they purchase PCs. They think that every PC has the same price and has the same
operate regardless of what product it is, which means low product difference. There are
method financial commitment specifications, no govt rules and low financial systems of
range in production. There is low financial commitment for separate shops. Reducing
productivity indicates that there is a risk of new newcomers.
Threat of Substitutes:
Risk of alternative items is low. HP considers in standards-based technology,
which symbolizes to be able to decide in the product of much choice. HP tries to remove
limitations by ongoing upgrading procedures and introducing new items to stay in the top
of the industry.
The Power of Buyers:
Negotiating energy of clients is great. People are very cost delicate because they
like to buy inexpensive and top quality items. If they see a components or application or
PC with identical features but different manufacturers and cost, they will usually buy a
less expensive one. The customer energy for HP can be low since product requirement is
great, this means that the company has energy to control the amount of manufacturing
and also its items cost. On the other hand, clients have plenty of alternatives. Moreover
there is not a significant distinction between items which are created in the market.
64. 64
The Power of Suppliers:
HP negotiating energy of providers is great. There are large amount of providers for
every element areas of the PC, for example, one can make a PC by using element areas
from different providers, including hard disk drive, DVD drive, observe, etc. Microsoft
and Apple have tremendous negotiating energy against the PC producers. There are great
changing costs.
Competitive Rivalry:
Competition is high. For example, cost, when one company functions to secure its place
by decreasing the cost of PCs, it will impact other organizations. This implies all other
organizations may want to reduced their cost in order to entice the clients. There is also
reducing productivity. Since the organizations offer their PCs in a low cost, they will
make less benefit.
Dell Porter five forces
PORTER FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS
Dell is very popular for custom-built PC and other computer relevant items and
promoting them online. Dell is very effective with regards to working with its providers
and maintaining the stock near to zero level which allows the company to evolve JIT
technique which decreases the costs to the ultimate customer.
The bargaining power of suppliers
According to typical supposition, energy is high where the product is highly effective.
Therefore, Dell is believed to have far greater negotiating energy than the providers. Dell
has been efficiently handling its opponents with regards to getting the required provide of
stocks and get them generate the stocks according to the requirements of the company.
65. 65
And the CEO of the organization, Eileen Dell also described that Dell Company never
stays to one provider permanently, as they always modify the providers if the providers
are not conference the requirements of Dell. And the organization always goes to the
provider which is impressive and price aggressive among other competing providers.
Therefore, it again indicates that Dell has greater negotiating energy than its providers.
Another sign of Dell to be in better place than its providers is that Dell got most of its
providers identify their companies and production models near to Dell’s production and
set up models. By getting the providers near its production models, stock is down to an
amazing four times and efficiency is the key component.
Moreover, providers can consistently provide their stocks to Dell within time of building
the computer systems which indicates a powerful business knowing of both Dell and its
providers.
66. 66
Threat of new Entrants
As it has been mentioned by Eileen Dell, his only worry about his company kingdom is
the chance of new newcomers to the industry who could negatively impact his company.
And moreover, Dell’s new technique is the item diversification; therefore, almost all
digital organizations are prospective newcomers to this new industry.
Bargaining power of Customers
One of the aggressive benefits Dell has obtained has been through providing in-person
connections with business and institutional clients. This is done by phone, internet
buying, personalized pcs where business clients can go to Dell’s special website known
as Leading Dell.com and set up pcs in respect to the price and requirements.
Moreover, they have publish sales on the internet facilitates which are on the internet and
in some situations the company technicians can even check out the client websites.
As long as the organization has been providing large organizations such as government
authorities, and huge organizations such as Cox emails, EDS and etc, they are generally
long lasting clients as it costs large money for the clients to change from Dell to another
organization.
Moreover, as the organization has been expanding its product varies from simply
computer systems to other products such photo printers, storage space services; this
indicates that the organization will be providing all type of customers, not only business
customers. Therefore, Dell has to pay attention to enhancing its client support to small
company and individual customers as well to gain their life-time commitment.
