This document provides an introduction to data lakes and discusses key aspects of creating a successful data lake. It defines different stages of data lake maturity from data puddles to data ponds to data lakes to data oceans. It identifies three key prerequisites for a successful data lake: having the right platform (such as Hadoop) that can handle large volumes and varieties of data inexpensively, obtaining the right data such as raw operational data from across the organization, and providing the right interfaces for business users to access and analyze data without IT assistance.
This document provides an overview of data journalism and instructions for an assignment involving extracting data from spreadsheets, converting the files to tab-delimited text format, uploading the data to ManyEyes to create visualizations, and then exploring the visualizations and uploading the files to Google Docs. Key aspects of data journalism discussed include the emergence of openly available data and tools for publishing and visualizing data to tell stories. Students are guided through a workflow of getting data from Google Docs, preprocessing it in Excel and a text editor, analyzing and visualizing it in ManyEyes, and then exploring it further in Google Docs.

Big data refers to large, complex datasets that cannot be processed by traditional methods. The volume, velocity, and variety of big data are increasing rapidly due to sources like social media and mobile devices. Hadoop is an open-source framework that allows storing and processing big data in a distributed, parallel fashion across clusters of commodity hardware. It uses HDFS for storage and MapReduce for processing. HDFS divides files into blocks and stores replicas across nodes for reliability. MapReduce breaks jobs into map and reduce tasks to process data in parallel.
This presentation provides a top-level introduction to semantics and Web 3.0. It discusses key concepts like semantic architectures, knowledge representations, and semantic applications. Semantic technologies add meaning to data so machines can better support users by doing more of the work. While early adoption was in enterprises, semantic applications are now emerging on the public web as part of the vision of Web 3.0 as a read-write-execute web.

Record linkage is used to identify records from different data sources that represent the same real-world entity. It involves preprocessing data, reducing the search space using blocking methods, computing similarity functions to compare records, and applying decision models to classify record pairs. A common blocking method is the sorted neighborhood method, which sorts records by a blocking key and compares nearby records within a fixed window. The effectiveness of record linkage depends on selecting good blocking keys and similarity functions.

This document introduces grid computing by discussing its applications to problems requiring large-scale data analysis, such as high energy physics experiments. It defines a grid as an infrastructure involving integrated and collaborative use of computers, networks, databases, and instruments across multiple organizations. Grids allow for computational, data, and network sharing and aim to provide a cost-effective, scalable platform for data-intensive problems. Virtual organizations are dynamically formed groups that define rules for sharing resources to solve specific problems. The document outlines grid architecture and operations, including resource discovery, scheduling jobs, and accounting. Benefits of grids include exploiting underutilized resources and parallel processing capacity.
Grid computing allows for the sharing of distributed computing resources over a network. It provides users with access to high-end computing facilities in a dependable, consistent, and inexpensive manner. A grid aggregates distributed computing power to solve large-scale problems. It enables virtual organizations through coordinated sharing of resources across locations, organizations, and hardware/software boundaries. Grid computing provides computational utility to consumers by managing resource identification, allocation, and consolidation through middleware software. It allows under-utilized resources to be dynamically distributed in an equitable manner.

Simplifying Your Cloud Architecture with a Logical Data Fabric (APAC)Denodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3dudL6u
It's not if you move to the cloud, but when. Most organisations are well underway with migrating applications and data to the cloud. In fact, most organisations - whether they realise it or not - have a multi-cloud strategy. Single, hybrid, or multi-cloud…the potential benefits are huge - flexibility, agility, cost savings, scaling on-demand, etc. However, the challenges can be just as large and daunting. A poorly managed migration to the cloud can leave users frustrated at their inability to get to the data that they need and IT scrambling to cobble together a solution.
In this session, we will look at the challenges facing data management teams as they migrate to cloud and multi-cloud architectures. We will show how the Denodo Platform can:
- Reduce the risk and minimise the disruption of migrating to the cloud.
- Make it easier and quicker for users to find the data that they need - wherever it is located.
- Provide a uniform security layer that spans hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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.

59. Stop building server-side applications.
Assume that data are anywhere and/or everywhere.
Assume that your software will be run in many places.
Erase your distinctions between server and client.
Let data grow branches - build trees (ie. Merkle DAGs)
Stop thinking of data as singular.
Stop thinking of datasets as monolithic.
Embrace redundancy & replication.
Understand that trustworthiness and authority are dynamic.
Broaden your sense of “now”.
Appreciate provenance.
