You unfortunately might hit some trademark issues with AWS's Cloud9 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud9_IDE .

Does anyone have any good info on Ryzen ECC RAM support? I’ve read a bunch of conflicting information and that some motherboard vendors have been misleading.

As mentioned by maa5444, Databricks community edition is a good way to learn Spark as you get a free 6GB node. If you want to focus more on Cloudera/Hortonworks, I would just spin up VMs in AWS or your preferred cloud. The costs of run

This article (like a lot of others) confuses Spark and Hadoop. To clarify: Spark is a data processing engine. Spark works with many persistent storage layers but provides none itself. So Spark can run on object storage (S3 etc), additionall

I found it a bit weird too as introducing a cyclic binary dependency is definitely not best practice for a standard programming project. However the C compilers do the same thing and so you already have these types of cyclic binary depende

I'd recommend some screenshots or the video before you get to pricing. Some of the graphics need to be improved. It would also be great to see why this is better than tradition BI tools (Tableau etc) and what your unique value proposit

I used to use tiling window managers like bspwm and dwm but now just use Fedora and GNOME. I am worried that with the move to Wayland that all the great window managers will break. It is good to see Sway is approaching 1.0 and that they are

I dislike the idea that domain names can be geographically restricted. Additionally this .eu cancellation seems a wanton and bureaucratic attack on the U.K. given Brexit has only recently been triggered.

Looking at the TPC-C page all the benchmarks seem quite old and only reflect commercial databases. Do you have any recent TPC-C benchmarks for OLTP databases such as Postgres, MySQL, and Cassandra so I can compare with CockroachDB?

I would select books based on your interest. I find the Dover publications good because they are both cheap and slightly older, this means they are less focused on undergraduate monetisation (version hopping, not supply answers to problems,

I'm starting to this we need namespaces for open source projects so we could refer to deep-learning:impala and database:impala. The java reverse domain name notation does handle this to a degree but I feel something could be done in th

It would be good if AWS et al had an easy way to manage third party ip ranges for security groups. When I was deploying a site we came across this issue and so whitelisted Cloudflares ip ranges but it made me uneasy because what happens if

For reasons like this I built my own NAS from scratch using a server and ZFS (admittedly using Western Digital red drives). I don’t believe consumer NAS vendors have the capability to properly patch and secure web interfaces and I’d extend

I'm actually quite happy with the name. For me - cockroaches are bugs that are distributed and survive in harsh conditions - something you want out of a database.

The gpdpocket is pretty close if you are looking for a trackpad less design (though too small for daily use). If you can afford 100,000k for a mould they could be you best bet for doing something custom.

Yeah agreed. I just wasted 2 hours this week compacting my qcow2 docker image for my mac (by filling it with zeros). It was totally unintuitive that deleting images didn't free disk space.
