European Data Privacy Rules Raise Questions for Benefit Plan Administrators
For U.S. benefit plan administrators, the European Union’s General Data Privacy Regulation is daunting because of its scope and vagueness. Obligations could be triggered not only if a plan covers a European resident but, if applied literally, if information is processed while a U.S. participant is travelling in the EU. https://goo.gl/bY8S7N #GlobalHR #HRTech
Employers Eye Changing Pay Practices to Curtail Bias
Growing pressure to ensure fair pay throughout the workplace is sparking changes to corporate America’s employee compensation and performance management programs to keep bias—whether it’s conscious or not—from seeping into pay and staffing decisions. https://goo.gl/ZLtfxB #GlobalHR #HRTech
AWS Lambda with Spring Boot
The typical deployment scenario for a Spring Boot application in AWS involves running the Java application on an EC2 instance 24 hours a day. Of course, the application could be deployed in AWS ECS as a Docker container, but it still runs continuously on an EC2 instance. In each case, the EC2 instances need to be monitored and you pay for compute capacity used by that EC2 instance.
AWS Lambda provides low cost compute with zero maintenance. Lambda runs your code on demand, without provisioned and managed servers. Lambda automatically runs and scales your code. You are charged for every 100ms your code executes and the number of times your code is triggered. If the code isn’t running, you pay nothing. https://goo.gl/uvqpQb #DataIntegration #ML
