In spite of diligent digital transformation efforts, most financial services institutions still support a loose patchwork of siloed systems and repositories. These dis-integrated resources are “data platforms” in name only: in addition to their high maintenance costs, their lack of interoperability with other critical systems makes it difficult to respond to business change.

Clearly environmental health and high performance are dependent on the proper implementation, tuning, and use of CDP, hardware, and microservices. Ideally you have Visibility and Transparency into existing high priority problems in your environment. The links below will carry you to regions within the Cloudera Community where you will find best practices to properly implement and tune hardware and services.

By now, almost everyone across the tech landscape has heard of the Zero Trust (ZT) security model, which assumes that every device, application, or user attempting to access a network is not to be trusted (see NIST definitions below). But as models go, the idea is easier than the execution.

Increased costs and wasted resources are on the rise as software systems have moved from monolithic applications to distributed, service-oriented architectures. As a result, over the past few years, interest in observability has seen a marked rise. Observability, borrowed from its control theory context, has found a real sweet spot for organizations looking to answer the question “why,” that monitoring alone is unable to answer.
