In our social media and marketing-driven era, it's quite hard to get things right. For me there is one common misconception brought by the Modern Data Stack idea that everything should be now ELT. In fact no, it shouldn't but only can.

Summary Cloud data warehouses and the introduction of the ELT paradigm has led to the creation of multiple options for flexible data integration, with a roughly equal distribution of commercial and open source options. The challenge is that most of those options are complex to operate and exist in their own silo. The dlt project was created to eliminate overhead and bring data integration into your full control as a library component of your overall data system.

Earlier this year, a small team of engineers at Meta started working on an idea for a new app. It would have all the features people expect from a text-based conversations app, but with one very key, distinctive goal – being an app that would allow people to share their content across multiple platforms. We wanted to build a decentralized (or federated) app that would enable people to post content that is viewable by anyone on other social apps, and vice versa.

Projects undergo a multitude of challenges when they begin or start. What commences as a simple activity may undergo a series of alterations - due to unknown or unforeseen constraints. To face and overcome such adversities, the project manager needs to rely on ways or techniques of playing a balancing act. For constraints related to the project schedule, the two schedule compression techniques of fast tracking and crashing come in very handy in critical situations.

Reading Time: 10 minutes What is Reflection API? Reflection API is one of the best features in Java. A programmer can use this API to write any logic for classes that will be generated in the future. In simple words, it refers to the ability of a running Java program to look at itself and understand its own internal details. It allows the program to examine and access information about its own components, such as the names of its variables and functions.
