We recently covered the use case of Percona Backup for MongoDB and Disk Snapshots in Google Cloud Platform; now it’s time to do the same for Amazon AWS. For this demo, I have created a 2-shard MongoDB cluster (where each shard is a 3-node PSA Replica Set) deployed on EC2 instances. Each instance has an extra […]

A quick Google search will show that anxiety about an end to AI funding has continued through the year. And while I haven’t mentioned Google and Facebook, they have demoed equivalents to most of these applications. NFTs seemed an awful lot like buying a painting and framing the receipt.

While experienced AI developers are starting to leave powerhouses like Google, OpenAI, Meta, and Microsoft, not enough are leaving to meet demand—and most of them will probably gravitate to startups rather than adding to the AI talent within established companies. Microsoft, Google, IBM, and OpenAI have offered more general indemnification.

The UI is awful and the system crashes under heavy use. There are redundant fields, confusing lexicon – the type of stuff that works great in a developer-led demo, but terribly for the rest of us. Even your best developer at Google isn’t going to turn 200 pages of requirements and specs into something useful.

In 2015, Google introduced Brotli , a new open-source lossless data format, which is now supported in all modern browsers. Brotli is widely supported, and many CDNs support it ( Akamai , AWS , KeyCDN , Fastly , Cloudlare , CDN77 ) and you can enable Brotli even on CDNs that don’t support it yet (with a service worker).
