Postgres Vision 2018: Will Postgres Live Forever?EDB
Bruce Momjian, co-founder of the PostgreSQL Global Development Group, believes that some organizations choose Postgres because it is cost-effective, open source, and flexible. But the database has also reached a point of maturity such that organizations are choosing it because it is the only database that does what they need it to do. Delivered at Postgres Vision 2018, this presentation by Momjian, a Senior Database Architect at EnterpriseDB, outlines the history of Postgres, the major advances, and the reasons why it has taken hold in organizations.
The document outlines the conceptual architecture for a reservation platform called FlexBook that allows for sharing of resources globally through a distributed catalog and reservation database, with the goal of moving society towards more resource sharing through an open-source software solution that enables finding and reserving various resources online in a flexible, reliable and equitable manner. The platform is designed based on 10 common rules focused on concepts like everything revolving around resources, optimal booking of limited shared resources, openness, equality, flexibility, reliability through individual component responsibility, and information sharing at the speed of light.

Enabling digital transformation api ecosystems and data virtualizationDenodo
Watch the full webinar here: https://buff.ly/2KBKzLJ
Digital transformation, as cliché as it sounds, is on top of every decision maker’s strategic initiative list. And at the heart of any digital transformation, no matter the industry or the size of the company, there is an application programming interface (API) strategy. While API platforms enable companies to manage large numbers of APIs working in tandem, monitor their usage, and establish security between them, they are not optimized for data integration, so they cannot easily or quickly integrate large volumes of data between different systems. Data virtualization, however, can greatly enhance the capabilities of an API platform, increasing the benefits of an API-based architecture. With data virtualization as part of an API strategy, companies can streamline digital transformations of any size and scope.
Join us for this webinar to see these technologies in action in a demo and to get the answers to the following questions:
*How can data virtualization enhance the deployment and exposure of APIs?
*How does data virtualization work as a service container, as a source for microservices and as an API gateway?
*How can data virtualization create managed data services ecosystems in a thriving API economy?
*How are GetSmarter and others are leveraging data virtualization to facilitate API-based initiatives?

A BASILar Approach for Building Web APIs on top of SPARQL EndpointsEnrico Daga
Presented at #SALAD2015
The heterogeneity of methods and technologies to publish open data is still an issue to develop distributed systems on the Web. On the one hand, Web APIs, the most popular approach to offer data services, implement REST principles, which focus on addressing loose coupling and interoperability issues. On the other hand, Linked Data, available through SPARQL endpoints, focus on data integration between distributed data sources. We proposes BASIL, an approach to build Web APIs on top of SPARQL endpoints, in order to benefit of the advantages from both Web APIs and Linked Data approaches. Compared to similar solution, BASIL aims on minimising the learning curve for users to promote its adoption. The main feature of BASIL is a simple API that does not introduce new specifications, formalisms and technologies for users that belong to both Web APIs and Linked Data communities.
This document summarizes two presentations given at the Nintex xchange 2018 conference about extending Nintex Workflow Cloud capabilities using Azure Functions. The first presentation described using an Azure Function to log compliance activities from Nintex workflows to Azure storage. The second presentation described building a Function to retrieve US Government per diem travel rates by making a call to the GSA API and returning the rates in JSON for use in Nintex workflows. Both presentations included demos of creating the Functions with Visual Studio and configuring them as custom actions in Nintex Workflow Cloud.

Overview and introductory remarks for the OGF sessions held May 21-22, 2015 co-located with the European Grid Initiative 2015 conference that took place the week of May 18-22, 2015 in Lisbon, Portugal. For details, see https://www.ogf.org/ogf/doku.php/events/ogf-44
This document discusses moving from a data-centric to a knowledge-centric approach for geospatial data and services. It proposes using core geospatial ontologies and semantic technologies like OWL and SPARQL to encode conceptual models, business rules, and formal semantics. This would allow automated reasoning and flexible integration of data as knowledge is shared through a semantic layer. Example applications like semantic gazetteers are presented to illustrate how existing services could be enhanced by adding semantics. The document outlines next steps like standardizing core ontologies and developing semantic profiles and services. The overall approach aims to reduce costs and burdens on users by making geospatial data and knowledge more accessible and interpretable through shared formal representations.
Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headedvikram sood
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.

State of Artificial intelligence Report 2023kuntobimo2016
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a multidisciplinary field of science and engineering whose goal is to create intelligent machines.
We believe that AI will be a force multiplier on technological progress in our increasingly digital, data-driven world. This is because everything around us today, ranging from culture to consumer products, is a product of intelligence.
The State of AI Report is now in its sixth year. Consider this report as a compilation of the most interesting things we’ve seen with a goal of triggering an informed conversation about the state of AI and its implication for the future.
We consider the following key dimensions in our report:
Research: Technology breakthroughs and their capabilities.
Industry: Areas of commercial application for AI and its business impact.
Politics: Regulation of AI, its economic implications and the evolving geopolitics of AI.
Safety: Identifying and mitigating catastrophic risks that highly-capable future AI systems could pose to us.
Predictions: What we believe will happen in the next 12 months and a 2022 performance review to keep us honest.

OWS and API Innovation
• OGC is advancing new standards while simultaneously maintaining the OGC
Standards Baseline
• The OGC API approach is based on technologies that did not exist during
development of initial OGC Web Services (OWS).
• OGC will continue to maintain the approved OWS Standards, e.g., WFS,
Version 2, while developing and maintaining new standards based on using
approaches for APIs and OGC building blocks
This approach is consistent with the OGC Innovation Statement from 2014 that anticipates OGC addressing the innovator’s
dilemma of maintaining the current OGC standards baseline while simultaneously developing standards to support evolving
and potentially disruptive technologies, community needs and market trends. ”

OGC API Standards Development – We Come 1
Modular API building blocks; spatially enable Web APIs in a consistent way
– Spatial Data on the Web Best Practices
– Leverages OpenAPI
– Focus on developer experience and usability
– Modular building blocks for access to spatial data that can be used in data APIs,
– Open development; Public GitHub, Early implementations, In-depth validation
OGC API - Features
OGC API - Coverages
OGC API - Map Tiles

OGC - API Features: Access to collections of features
GET /collections
– Lists geospatial data collections that can be queried; describes basic information about the
collection, e.g., id, description, spatial and temporal extents of all the data contained
GET /collections/buildings/items?bbox=160.6,-55.95,-170,-25.89
– Requests all data in collection "buildings" that is in the New Zealand economic zone.
– Response format (typically HTML or GeoJSON feature collection; GML is supported)
determined using HTTP content negotiation. Data returned in pageable chunks.
– Core specification supports a few basic filters, in addition to the bbox filter
GET /collections/{collectionId}/items/{featureId}
– Returns single 'feature' - (a building, a stream, a county, etc.); typically described by a
geometry plus other properties. Provides a stable URL to link to the ‘spatial thing'

OGC API Features - Implementations
• OpenAPI definition examples
– first example (ogcapi-features-1-example1.yaml)
• generic example uses path parameters to describe feature collections and all features.
– second example (ogcapi-features-1-example2.yaml)
• does not use path parameter for collections; explicitly provides information about feature
collection 'buildings' (paths /collections/buildings etc.), schema of the building features
(schema buildingGeoJSON), and filter parameter for building features
• Servers
– interactive instruments, CubeWerx Inc., GeoServer, pygeoapi, jivan, sofp, STAC, nls-fi
• Clients
– go-wfs3-client, ogr/gdal WFS 3.0 client driver, OWSLib WFS 3.0 client, STAC
