If you look at the Apple’s revenue break-up, you will come across a comparatively small segment called “other services”. This small segment of other services, including itunes, App store, Apple pay, etc., generated $8.5 billion for Apple in 2017 and over $110 billion since 2008. What appeared to be yet another mp3 player in the market had a solid business model behind it in the form of itunes.

Getting DataOps right is crucial to your late-stage big data projects. At Strata 2017 , I premiered a new diagram to help teams understand why teams fail and when: Early on in projects, management and developers are responsible for the success of a project.

I've taught in situations where the operations team members complain that no one wants to do the operational side of things.

A year after the Java 9 release was supposed to “rock our worlds”, the LTS version we’ve ACTUALLY been waiting for is finally here. Most of the developers, teams, companies, etc. that we know haven’t updated past Java 8 yet. Even with the release of module Java 9 last year, and the quick release of Java 10 that followed in March. It’s a bit shocking, though not surprising, that two new versions of the JDK were released in the last year and that relatively few people are using them.
