It is possible to talk even to a runtime engineer, but you need to be on their enterprise plan and spend millions per year with AWS. It may sound brutal, but AWS prioritizes based on the account size. Given the AWS Active mention, the autho

It’s similar to the Oracle database. It's easy to mistakenly use an extra feature, and later, you are hit with non-compliance that can go away with a new purchase. I’m a founder of Quesma to make migrations easier, and regularly hear h

It would be even better if SQL had pipe syntax. SQL is amazing, but its ordering isn’t intuitive, and only CTEs provide a reliable way to preview intermediate results. With pipes, each step could clearly show intermediate outputs. Example:

This is way worse due to London airports' lack of spare capacity. They should have built Thames Estuary Airport a long time ago.

You are right. SQL is the best language, but it likely needs some extensions. See SQL with pipe syntax. Read Google paper or try it out in Big Query. There are a lot of fundamentals in observability, but there are very verbose in SQL: - rat

There is an effort in OpenTelemetry to create a standard query language for observability. There were a lot of discussions with a lot of opinions; there were even several talks during KubeConEU about that: https://sched.co/1

Kibana is great, but managing Elasticsearch is pain. Slow ingestion, query performance, takes a lot of space, harder to tune up. Modern columnar SQL such as ClickHouse are 10+ times more efficient in real-world use cases. I'm a CEO and

Several Polish cities got that systems. It may sound unusual, but it is pragmatic system. Poland during cold war was suppose to be battleground and protecting water supply is hard. Many traditional systems have some gaps.

Echos with my experience. LLMs work great if you micromanage them aggressively, but the moment I put too much trust, it backfires terribly.

Ideally, I would love many places writing to the Iceberg catalogue and then using it as a data lake. In the data lake, I would have a gateway provisioning DuckDB on demand for each user.

by jakozaur 2y ago
Cool. Every database or data source (e.g. CRM) should produce Iceberg format for you. Though a little sceptical of embedding DuckDB. It is easy and better to isolate Read/Write paths, and it has a lot of other benefits.

The SQL migrations are when running in-place, hard to reverse changes, where production is the only realistic env. I wish there was a better way to run blue/green DB deployments. Though this feature is rare (e.g. gh-ost) and not that u
