Summary Data governance is a practice that requires a high degree of flexibility and collaboration at the organizational and technical levels. The growing prominence of cloud and hybrid environments in data management adds additional stress to an already complex endeavor. Privacera is an enterprise grade solution for cloud and hybrid data governance built on top of the robust and battle tested Apache Ranger project.

Sometimes it takes a billion-dollar mistake to bring the murkier side of data ethics into sharp focus. Equifax found this out to their own cost in 2017 when they failed to protect the data of almost 150 million users globally. The catastrophic breach was bad enough on its own — but Equifax waited three months to go public with the news. As the public furore rose to a crescendo, the credit organization dragged its feet on disclosing exactly what kind of information had been leaked.

Summary At the foundational layer many databases and data processing engines rely on key/value storage for managing the layout of information on the disk. RocksDB is one of the most popular choices for this component and has been incorporated into popular systems such as ksqlDB. As these systems are scaled to larger volumes of data and higher throughputs the RocksDB engine can become a bottleneck for performance.

But building an AI application into a reliable, secure workflow agent isn’t as simple as plugging in an API. As an engineering leader, it can be challenging to make sense of this evolving landscape, but agent tooling provides such high value that it’s critical we figure out how to move forward.

I’ve been working as a data and software engineer for more than 20 years. Not long after I joined my current employer Sounding Board , I had to normalize nested JSON arrays in a complex document schema so that I could join the child records to other collections and then denormalize data into a single result set — and I had to do it fast. On top of that, I had to make that data available to our custom-built application via a secure RESTful endpoint with a less than one second response time.

Many times, a data developer is constrained by the data they were given. In Data Science / Engineering projects, it is not unusual that extra data is added from other sources - even ones that are outside of the organization. But extra data can be available in non-standard ways, that require new processing techniques. For example, when it comes to geographical data many governments provide open spatial data about their territory.
