I think it’s safe to say that one of the worst things in Machine Learning is the terminology. The maths and statistics are definitely part of the learning curve, but more than that, it feels like you are learning a new language. In some ways, you are. DataStore and FeatureStore are two of the current buzzwords that people are trying to understand. To be fair, DataStore and FeatureStore feel like family rather than strangers.

Although a website traffic plateau can be tricky to overcome, these 9 expert-backed tips can help drive fresh traffic in no time.

🎂 Make a wish and blow out the candles…we’re celebrating Kong’s sixth anniversary! 👏👏👏 In 2015, Mashape open sourced Kong Gateway, launching the next generation of API management. In our last anniversary post, I took a look back at our history. For this 6th anniversary post, I’ll focus on how this year went and look forward to what’s coming up next.

President Joe Biden issued an “Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity” as of May 12, 2021. The order includes numerous actions and mandates to confront the dangers of cyber attacks that are increasing in frequency and sophistication. Cybersecurity has real and significant implications, both in economical and national security terms. At the time of this writing, the Colonial Pipeline cyber attack caused quite a stir on the USA’s east coast.

As the amount of data companies are faced with snowballs, the need for efficient data governance grows. An increasing number of organizations are turning to cloud service providers for data management. In this context, data as a service, often referred to as DaaS, is becoming an essential tool for managing data integration, data storage, and data analytics.

Transferring files between two or more machines is an essential part of the ETL (extract, transform, load) process. Of course, there are multiple ways to move data, including flat file databases. For example, you can physically copy the data onto a USB drive or send it to the recipient via email. But methods like these are far less efficient than sending data via FTP. So what is FTP exactly, and how do you use it to transfer files and data? Keep reading for all the answers.

In our second Kong and Okta tutorial, we’ll go through the authorization code flow applied to user authentication processes. This series will show you how to implement service authentication and authorization for Kong Konnect and Okta using the OpenID Connect (OIDC) plugin.

As we've discussed in our previous Service Discovery post, decoupled services in a microservice architecture communicate via APIs. But what about the communication between clients outside of your system and the services within your application? How does that communication work? An API gateway is a powerful component in a microservice architecture. Pairing its functionality with a serverless platform like Koyeb saves engineering teams time and maximizes computing resources efficiency.

Software errors are annoying – they are troublesome for IT departments and affect many company processes. A software error is essentially a mismatch between what is expected of the program and the produced output. Sometimes these software errors could have negligible impact, while on other occasions, they could wreak absolute havoc, especially for industries like banking, healthcare, airlines, and stock markets.

Earlier this month, an executive order was issued from the White House aimed at improving the cybersecurity of the United States.
