A recent AlphaGo victory is being touted as a Big Win for artificial intelligence (AI). It's a no less important win for machine learning, which might be in the midst of a renaissance.

                    Software development is in the midst of a transitional period, thanks to the emergence of use-oriented models like DevOps, which are revolutionizing application development, delivery, maintenance, and enhancement.

                    The appeal of the agile technology alternatives goes beyond the potential for improved performance. They all represent approaches to augmenting the data warehouse environment in ways that reduce restrictions.

                    Proponents of data warehouse automation say the way we design, build, and manage data warehouse systems is obsolete. They say ingenuity, not labor, is the most important contribution human beings can make to the design, development, and optimization of the warehouse.

                    A look at how Hadoop and Spark do things differently (and extremely well), plus why sophisticated attacks require sophyisticated defenses and are personal clouds a good policy?
