This document summarizes various database connectors available through Anypoint Platform from MuleSoft. It lists connectors for Oracle Database, MySQL, JDBC, PostgreSQL, DB2, and Cassandra database. Each connector allows applications to connect and perform CRUD operations on the respective database. The connectors provide a way to easily integrate databases with applications, systems and services.
At our March Data Analytics Meetup, Dan Rodriguez and Cherian Mathew demonstrated the variations in Microsoft Azure programs and how they are impacting digital transformation.
In this presentation we introduce the basic concepts around SQL Server Azure: the database in the cloud.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

protocol via the Oracle Database Connector from MuleSoft.
The database connector is preinstalled in Anypoint Studio.
7. 7
MySQL Connector
Send receive messages with MySQL databases using the JDBC protocol to
retrieve, insert, update, and delete database records.
The Database Connector is pre-installed in Anypoint Studio.
8. 8
JDBC Connector
Connect applications to any JDBC compatible database as an inbound
endpoint or an outbound endpoint to perform CRUD operations on
database records.
Description
The JDBC Endpoint implements a transport channel to connect your Mule
application to any JDBC-compatible database. You can implement the
JDBC endpoint as an inbound endpoint with a one-way exchange pattern,
or as an outbound endpoint configured for either a one-way or request-
response exchange pattern.
Use the JDBC Endpoint to perform create, read, update, and delete
operations (often referred to by the acronym CRUD) on database records.
If you are using the EE version, it can also invoke a procedure stored in a
database, such as creating new tables dynamically.
9. 9
PostgreSQL Connector
The Anypoint PostgreSQL connector allows you to send and receive
messages with a database using the JDBC protocol.
The Database Connector is pre-installed in Anypoint Studio.
10. 10
DB2 Connector
Easily interface with the IBM DB2 API from within the CloudHub
environment with the database connector.
Description
Create connectivity and seamlessly integrate with IBM DB2 databases with
the Database Connector from MuleSoft. The Database connector makes it
simple to create jobs that read, write, and load data within databases and
enables users to perform transactional and non-transactional operations
against DB2 data. In addition, businesses can automate business
processes through the connector, making it simple to store essential
components from one task and reuse them in another - reducing cost and
simplifying complexity throughout the enterprise. Utilizing the MuleSoft
Anypoint™ Platform allows users to interface with DB2 databases and
performing commands without having to deal with the DB2 databases
directly.
