How DoorDash Standardized and Improved Microservices Caching

DoorDash Engineering

Inadequate metrics and observability : The absence of uniform metrics across teams resulted in a lack of critical data, such as cache hit rates, request counts, and error rates. Difficulty in implementing multilayered caching : The previous setup didn’t easily support the use of multiple caching layers for the same method.

Upgrade your Modern Data Stack

Christophe Blefari

An easy-to-manage central storage and querying and transforming layer in SQL. Find, tag and remove what is useless, what can be factorised. Good data layers are a good start. When you put the things like this it opens the doors and does not limit the modern data stack to 4 vendors. Define SLAs, critically and ownership.

Improving the code quality of your dbt models with unit tests and TDD

Towards Data Science

A typical dbt application follows a layered architecture style with at least three layers: staging, intermediate mart. Each layer will contain one or more models. We have a dbt app called health-insights that takes weight and height data from upstream sources and calculates the metric body mass index.

Building and maintaining the skills taxonomy that powers LinkedIn's Skills Graph

LinkedIn Engineering

As highlighted below in Figure 5, the KGBert Model takes two skills, converts them into contextual sentences, encodes them through a fine-tuned BERT layer, and then the flattened output from BERT is fed into a classification module that predicts the relationship between the two skills (i.e. "A
