Reading Time: 7 minutes To handle CRUD, authorization, and business logic, backend developers frequently need to write several lines of code. All of this code must be tested, debugged, and maintained for the duration of the project. This consumes a significant amount of time that developers could be used to create new features. This blog will demonstrate to you how Hasura and PostgreSQL can help you accelerate app development and easily launch backends.

There is a golden adage that says - "you don't plan to fail but you fail to plan"; well, it holds pretty much the same importance in project management as it does in all aspects of life. Project planning is quintessential to the project and projects that are not planned well result in unwanted overheads or at times sunk costs which result in pressures on the execution of the project and often escalate situations out of control for the project manager.

What is stale data? Stale data is data that hasn’t been updated at the frequency interval required for its productive use. Depending on the use case, this could be weeks or minutes. It’s completely contextual. For example, the marketing team may require their ad spend dashboard updated weekly for their regular meeting where they make optimization decisions, but a machine learning algorithm that detects financial fraud may require data latency measured in seconds (or less).

For an introduction to Jinja in dbt check out the documentation and the free self-serve course on Jinja, Macros, Pacakages. Jinja brings a lot of power to dbt, allowing us to use ref() , source() , conditional code, and macros. But, while Jinja brings flexibility, it also brings complexity, and like many times with code, things can run in expected ways.

Start-ups & SMBs launching products quickly must bundle dashboards, reports, & self-service analytics into apps. Customers expect rapid value from your product (time-to-value), data security, and access to advanced capabilities. Traditional Business Intelligence (BI) tools can provide valuable data analysis capabilities, but they have a barrier to entry that can stop small and midsize businesses from capitalizing on them.
