I wrote an editorial on the view of GenAI tech from execs and someone commented that they wanted references for results. Most of us might take a result from a co-worker and use it without asking for any proof of where it comes from. If we trust our co-workers, this can work well. If we don’t, then we might want to know where they learned this and how they know it works.For GenAI, we might want some references to help us learn more or check something. Or, more likely, learn how to modify something that isn’t perfect. In this sense,…

If you’re a CIO who is managing hybrid infrastructure, you’re like the peace-keeper in a dysfunctional family. On one side, you’ve got the old-school on-prem team—practical, cost-conscious, maybe a little stubborn. On the other hand, the cloud team is fast-moving, quickly adopting the latest tools, and sometimes a little dismissive of “legacy” infrastructure. And just like a family that doesn’t get along, they barely talk to each other.I see this all the time. A CIO will tell me, “I need to unify my infrastructure strategy,” but when I speak with their teams, it’s like talking to two different companies. The…
Checkmarx, this week, reported it has discovered malicious software packages that, in addition to injecting malware capable of bypassing endpoint security to exfiltrate data, also provide persistent remote access and control of desktops and servers.Darren Meyer, security research advocate at Checkmarx, said the attack appears to be targeting applications developers using Colorama, a widely-used Python package for colorizing terminal output and a similar JavaScript package on NPM. These malicious packages were uploaded to the PyPI repository.The goal is to use typo-squatting and name-confusion to trick application developers into downloading these packages as part of an effort to compromise software supply…
The cryptocurrency market feeds on volatility. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is famous for dramatic price changes—it could go up or down in double digits within hours. Forecasting those spikes is interesting and potentially game-changing for traders, investors, and data scientists. As machine learning and easy access to coding tools such as Python become more prevalent, many people are pondering whether we can predict Ethereum’s next big price movement.This question is at the interface of data science and decentralized finance. Thanks to open data, strong libraries, and the developing discipline of financial modeling, Python has become the language of…

In an era of digital transformation, automation is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity. Industrial environments, once resistant to rapid technological change, are now embracing automation to streamline operations, reduce errors and enhance productivity. At the heart of this shift lies DevOps: A methodology that fosters collaboration, accelerates deployment and enables continuous improvement. DevOps methodologies are driving boundless automation in traditionally complex operational technology (OT) settings. From manufacturing to utilities and logistics, DevOps professionals are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between software and machines, transforming industrial workflows through smarter, more integrated systems. The Role of DevOps in Industrial Automation DevOps…
Redgate has updated its Flyway platform for applying DevOps workflows to database platforms to now provide deeper integration into command line interface (CLI) tools and integrated developer environments (IDEs).In addition, the Flyway platform now enables state-based deployments using scripts that can be generated based on a specific schema.Finally, Redgate is also adding options that enable DevOps teams to choose whether they want to include backups as baselines, automate the backup process altogether or never allow any type of shadow database.Max Drobert, group product manager at Redgate, said these latest additions are intended to make it simpler for software engineering teams…
