To gather insights on the state of microservices today, we spoke with 19 executives who are familiar with the current state of microservices architecture. Here’s who we spoke to: https://goo.gl/3AzHeK #DataIntegration #ML
I’m preparing to publish a bunch of transit-related data as APIs, for us across a number of applications from visualizations to conversation interfaces like bots and voice-enablement. As I’m learning about the data, publishing it as unsophisticated CRUD APIs, I’m thinking deeply about how I would enable others to ask questions of this data using web APIs. I’m thinking about the hard work of deriving visual meaning from specific questions, all the way to how would you respond to an Alexa query regarding transit data in less than a second, going well beyond what CRUD gives us when we publish our APIs and taking things to the next level.
Knowing the technology sector, the first response I’ll get is machine learning! You take all your data, and you train up some machine learning models, put some natural language process to work, and voila, you have your answer to how you provide answers. I think this is a sensible approach to many data sets, and for organizations who have the machine learning skills and resources at their disposal. There are also a growing number of SaaS solutions for helping put machine learning work to answer complex questions that might be asked of large databases. Machine learning is definitely part of the equation for me, but I’m not convinced it is the answer in all situations, and it might not always yield the correct answers we are always looking for. https://goo.gl/U9XLSo #DataIntegration #ML
ICYDK: It has been a best practice to load the properties file as per the environment, instead of some manual copy/paste or other techniques to do it.
Today, I will walk you through a MuleSoft application which uses the properties file as per the environment. When you wan to the run application in a dev runtime/environment, your application should pick up the dev environment properties file. Also, sometimes there is a requirement that we should have a common/default properties file which will hold common properties for all environments. https://goo.gl/mUZDVw #DataIntegration #ML
ICYDK: In most of the integration solutions related to end customer information or customer-oriented data, CRM will be one of the key components. CRM will act as the customer database, but with much more advanced application level features than a generic database.
In this blog post, I’m going to explain how to integrate with SugarCRM (CRM application for the example) using UltraStudio (integration capability provider for the tutorial). https://goo.gl/VtUKea #DataIntegration #ML
