In-memory Orchestrate Local Development Database

In-memory Orchestrate Local Development Database

By Adron Hall on March 28, 2014

I was talking with Tory Adams @BEZEI2K about working with Orchestrate‘s Services. We’re totally sold on what they offer and are looking forward to a lot of the technology that is in the works. The day to day building against Orchestrate is super easy, and setting up collections for dev or test or whatever are so easy […]

Going Live, Data & Pricing @ Orchestrate

Going Live, Data & Pricing @ Orchestrate

By Adron Hall on February 4, 2014

Over the last few months while working on the prototype around Deconstructed I’ve been using the Orchestrate service offering exclusively. With their service around key value and graph store easily accessible via API it was a no brainer to get started building ASAP. Today, that service goes full beta! You can get the full lowdown […]

Sorry Database Nerds, Nobody Actually Gives a Shit…

Sorry Database Nerds, Nobody Actually Gives a Shit…

By Adron Hall on November 4, 2013

So I’ve been in more than a few conversations about data structures, various academic conversations and other notions about where and how data should be stored. I’ve been on projects and managed projects that involve teams of people determining how to manage data so that other people can just not manage data. They want to […]

Riak Development Guidance: The “Client Round Robin Anti-Pattern”

Riak Development Guidance: The “Client Round Robin Anti-Pattern”

By Adron Hall on August 22, 2013

One of the features that is often available in Riak Client software (including the CorrguatedIron .NET Client, the riak-js client and others) is the ability to send requests to the Riak Cluster through a round robin style approach. What this means is each IP, of each node within the Riak Cluster is entered into a […]

Architectural PaaS Cracks or Crack PaaS

Architectural PaaS Cracks or Crack PaaS

By Adron Hall on July 29, 2013

Over the last couple years there have been two prominent open source PaaS Solutions come onto the market. Cloud Foundry & OpenShift. There’s been a lot of talk about these plays and the talk has slowly but steadily turned into traction. Large enterprises are picking these up and giving their developers and operations staff a …

Deploycon, PaaS & the pending data tier gravity fallout…

By Adron Hall on April 1, 2013

For a quick recap of last years Deploycon & related talks, check out my “Day #3 => DeployCon && Enterprise && Data Gravity” entry from last year. PaaS Systems aren’t always effectively distributed. Heroku has fallen over every time east-1 has gone down at AWS. Not that I’m saying they’ve done bad, just pointing that […]

Chartio Supporting Salesforce–Pretty for the Enterprise

Chartio Supporting Salesforce–Pretty for the Enterprise

By Ben Kepes on February 25, 2013

Two themes I often talk about are specific functionality from specialist vendors and delivering enterprise solutions in new and friendly ways. A good example of this I came across recently was from small company Chartio. Chartio, a Y Combinator company, touts itself as the best interface for data. Essentially it allows organizations to take data […]

Forrester Confuses “Best” with “Most Accessible”

Forrester Confuses “Best” with “Most Accessible”

By Ben Kepes on November 8, 2012

I’ve got a love/hate relationship with the traditional analyst firms. Their people are incredibly smart and very thorough, but sometimes in their search for massive levels of details, they miss the very point of technology. A good case in point is the recently released Forrester Enterprise Cloud Database Wave report.

Dataloader.io Provides Easy Salesforce Migration

By Ben Kepes on September 13, 2012

One of the great untold barriers to actually moving to the cloud is the not insignificant pain that organizations feel when migrating their data from an existing system of record to a cloud solution. This is especially the case when the solution is both an integral part of the organization’s

Why Workday Is Different by Design, and Why It Matters

Why Workday Is Different by Design, and Why It Matters

By Stan Swete on August 9, 2012

We use the object model to define both the structure of our applications (classes, relationships, and attributes) as well as the logic of our applications (methods). All parts of the object model are defined as metadata. Instead of the thousands of relational tables and millions of lines of code used to define traditional enterprise software, Workday applications consist of millions of metadata definitions

4 Big Data Myths - Part I

4 Big Data Myths – Part I

By Chirag Mehta on April 2, 2012

It was cloud then and it’s Big Data now. Every time there’s a new disruptive category it creates a lot of confusion. These categories are not well-defined. They just catch on. What hurts the most is the myths. This is the first part of my two-part series to debunk Big Data myths. Myth # 4: […]

Big Data needs Big Collection and Big Execution

By Martijn Linssen on December 4, 2011

Big Data is the new buzz it seems, and I must say I have been sceptic of it since I first saw the very word – or phrase, what is it? As an IT architect, I’ve always equaled data to databases, and information to applications – and knowledge to the people on top of these […]
