With an open data lakehouse powered by Apache Iceberg, businesses can better tap into the power of analytics and AI.

How to Fix the Array Index Out Of Bounds Exception in Java

The ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is a runtime exception in Java that occurs when an array is accessed with an illegal index. The index is either negative or greater than or equal to the size of the array. Let’s put that in simpler terms with an analogy. Imagine you have a row of five boxes lined up in front of you. Each box has a number on it. If you want to put a toy in one of these boxes, you have to say which box number you're putting it in. For example, "Put this toy in box number 2.".

Solving the Dual-Write Problem: Effective Strategies for Atomic Updates Across Systems

The dual-write problem occurs when two external systems must be updated in an atomic fashion. A classic example is updating an application’s database while pushing an event into a messaging system like Apache Kafka. If the database update succeeds but the write to Kafka fails, the system ends up in an inconsistent state. However, the dual-write problem isn’t unique to event-driven systems or Kafka. It occurs in many situations involving different technologies and architectures.

Alternatives to Session-Based Test Management and how Xray Exploratory App fits

In our previous articles about exploratory testing, we focused on session-based test management (SBTM), one of the more popular approaches. SBTM aligns clearly with the Xray Exploratory App workflow and terminology. As a quick refresher, SBTM is a more structured technique for performing exploratory testing. The key idea is to organize delimited sessions which are uninterrupted blocks of reviewable, chartered test effort.
