HBase to CDP Operational Database Migration Overview

This blog post provides an overview of the HBase to CDP Operational Database (COD) migration process. CDP Operational Database enables developers to quickly build future-proof applications that are architected to handle data evolution. It helps developers automate and simplify database management with capabilities like auto-scale and is fully integrated with Cloudera Data Platform (CDP).

Chaotic Performance Tests

Building performance tests that conform to a very specific level of load and concurrency is a standard approach to performance testing. You determine your peak levels of load and concurrency, and you build a test that meets this. You build soak test and scalability tests that conform to pre-determined levels of load and concurrency, and you execute these alongside the other scenarios you build to meet your performance requirements.

How to Develop a Structured Exploratory Testing Strategy

However, the flexibility of exploratory testing comes with the risk of ad hoc, random outcomes with no structure or consistency between testers, test managers, and projects. While testers should not be limited in their exploratory testing efforts, having a disciplined approach is a fantastic tool for gathering feedback, detecting errors, and enhancing UX.

Incorporating Privacy Enhancing Techniques in your Data Privacy Strategy

Maintaining data privacy is critical for modern enterprises. In this talk we will cover the degrees of identifiability and privacy-protection technologies for data pseudonymization, data de-identification, and data anonymization. Join this session to learn about the main threats to data privacy and technologies to privacy protect your data.

How to Keep Database Table Sizes Down and Prevent Data Bloat

Most web applications use a data store of some kind, often a relational database. When a web app becomes successful, it can become all too easy to start "hoarding" data in the database. But hoarding data leads to the unbounded growth of database tables (both row count and stored data size). While this works fine to a certain point, it is very useful to prevent some data bloat — or, if you cannot prevent it, to plan for your infrastructure ahead of time to adequately manage growth.

Failover Across Clouds

In this extended demo, Sahaj Saini shows you how Snowflake can replicate data and account metadata (like users, roles, compute resources, resource monitors, etc...) and failover these over across cloud providers on demand. For the fictional company, Style Me Up, he'll demonstrate how to set up replication with failover groups and trigger a failover and redirect client applications.
