As Business Intelligence (BI) tools, data warehousing solutions, and enterprise data and application landscapes have advanced, it’s worth taking the time to rethink that old model, starting with the dichotomy between operational reporting (OR) and strategic analytics. There is a clear difference between operational reporting and BI, but they can and should work together. Companies use one or the other, and if they have both, there is a gap between them.
There’s a function called Enum.map in Elixir that works on multiple collection types, but it's not without its issues. In this post, I will introduce you to a concept from functional programming called a functor. We’ll make a Functor protocol with a function called fmap that will aspire to be a better version of Enum.map. Note: The article is inspired by the Witchcraft library, which we covered in one of our previous posts. But first: what's the problem with Enum.map exactly?
Import maps are a new way for web pages to control the behavior of JavaScript imports, potentially enabling you to ditch your build system. In this article, Ayooluwa Isaiah dives deep into the specification.
One of the most commonly occurring errors in C#, FileNotFoundException is raised when the developer tries to access a file in the program that either doesn't exist or has been deleted. The following are some of the reasons the system is unable to locate the file.
The java.io.EOFException is a checked exception in Java that occurs when an end of file or end of stream is reached unexpectedly during input. This exception is mainly used by data input streams to signal end of stream. Since EOFException is a checked exception, it must be explicitly handled in methods that can throw this exception - either by using a try-catch block or by throwing it using the throws clause.
Companies are tightening the belts with one exception: data. The modern data stack shows no signs of a recession with Frank Slootman the CEO of Snowflake saying at their annual user conference they will not slow hiring plans. CNBC Tech Council executives noted how technology investments are business drivers, not cost centers. And Foundry’s annual cloud computing survey cites cloud analytics as a top growth driver. A digital economy is fueling this growth in the data sector.
