Summary Building an end-to-end data pipeline for your machine learning projects is a complex task, made more difficult by the variety of ways that you can structure it. Kedro is a framework that provides an opinionated workflow that lets you focus on the parts that matter, so that you don’t waste time on gluing the steps together. In this episode Tom Goldenberg explains how it works, how it is being used at Quantum Black for customer projects, and how it can help you structure your own.

Kubernetes at Rockset At Rockset, we use Kubernetes (k8s) for cluster orchestration. It runs all our production microservices — from our ingest workers to our query-serving tier. In addition to hosting all the production infrastructure, each engineer has their own Kubernetes namespace and dedicated resources that we use to locally deploy and test new versions of code and configuration.

Large enterprises face unique challenges in optimizing their Business Intelligence (BI) output due to the sheer scale and complexity of their operations. Unlike smaller organizations, where basic BI features and simple dashboards might suffice, enterprises must manage vast amounts of data from diverse sources. What are the top modern BI use cases for enterprise businesses to help you get a leg up on the competition?

Go from zero to production on Apache Kafka ® without talking to sales reps or building infrastructure. Apache Kafka is the standard for event-driven applications. But it’s not without its challenges, and the ops burden can be heavy. Organizations that successfully build and run their own Kafka environment must make significant investments in engineering and operations to account for failover and security.
