Data Prep for AI: Get Your Oracle House in Order

Despite the transformative potential of AI, a large number of finance teams are hesitating, waiting for this emerging technology to mature before investing. According to a recent Gartner report, a staggering 61% of finance organizations haven’t yet adopted AI. Finance has always been considered risk averse, so it is perhaps unsurprising to see that AI adoption in finance significantly lags other departments.

Data Accessibility: A Hurdle Before SAP's AI Integration

Unlocking the power of AI within SAP for your team requires overcoming a significant hurdle: data accessibility. SAP data’s complexity, spread across various modules, creates silos of information that your team might struggle to understand and utilize effectively. Inaccessible or misaligned SAP data will hinder your AI system’s ability to learn and deliver valuable results specific to your organization.

The engineering behind autoscaling with HashiCorp's Nomad on a global serverless platform

There are several ways to handle load spikes on a service. However, these methods are not cost-effective: you either pay for resources you don't use, or you risk not having enough resources to handle the load. Fortunately, there is a third way: horizontal autoscaling. Horizontal autoscaling is the process of dynamically adjusting the number of instances of a service based on the current load. This way, you only pay for the resources you use, and you can handle load spikes without any manual intervention.

Get Your AI to Production Faster: Accelerators For ML Projects

One of the worst-kept secrets among data scientists and AI engineers is that no one starts a new project from scratch. In the age of information there are thousands of examples available when starting a new project. As a result, data scientists will often begin a project by developing an understanding of the data and the problem space and will then go out and find an example that is closest to what they are trying to accomplish.

Artificial Intelligence vs. Intelligent Automation: What's the Difference?

AI injects “intelligence” into automation, enabling systems to execute tasks, comprehend complex data, make informed decisions, and learn from outcomes. Unlike technologies such as robotic process automation (RPA), which follow predetermined rules, AI leverages data to evaluate situations and determine the best course of action. Now that we've explored how AI augments traditional automation tools, let's delve deeper into the realm of intelligent automation.

A Software Engineer's Tips and Tricks #3: CPU Utilization Is Not Always What It Seems

Hey there! We're back for our third edition of Tips and Tricks. As we said in our first posts on Drizzle ORM and Template Databases in PostgreSQL, our new Tips and Tricks mini blog series is going to share some helpful insights and cool tech that we've stumbled upon while working on technical stuff. Today's topic is short and sweet. It'll be on CPU utilization and what that metric indicates. If you enjoy it and want to learn more, I encourage you to check out the "further reading" links.
