Cloudera Data Platform’s integration with Azure delivers enterprise security and governance
Modern analytics and the resulting business insights unlock new opportunities to optimize company performance and open new revenue streams. Since these initiatives also heighten the need for greater security and governance of company data, Identity and Access Management (IAM) needs to be a foundational component of any corporate security plan that covers company data.
.NET for Apache Spark hits v1.0
About two years ago, we heard an increasing demand from the .NET community for an easier way to build big data applications with .NET, outside of needing to learn Scala or Python. Thus, in a collaboration between Azure Data and .NET teams, we started the .NET for Apache® Spark™ open source project.
How to optimize Azure Machine Learning for IoT production usage
Introduction Over the last few years IoT devices, machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) have become very popular and now a lot of companies are moving forward to use them in production. All cloud providers, including Microsoft Azure, provide services on how to deploy developed ML algorithms to edge devices.

A new video series for beginners to learn JavaScript
There’s a popular saying that reads “Any application that can be written in JavaScript will eventually be written in JavaScript.” Known as Atwood’s Law, it highlights the flexibility of the language: JavaScript is already everywhere and its popularity only continues to grow.
Accelerate traditional machine learning models on GPU with ONNX Runtime
With the growing trend towards deep learning techniques in AI, there are many investments in accelerating neural network models using GPUs and other specialized hardware. However, many models used in production are still based on traditional machine learning libraries or sometimes a combination of traditional machine learning (ML) and DNNs.
J4K: an all-star Java and Kubernetes speaker line-up in one conference

This is a community event, delivered by stellar Java community leaders, and is dedicated to enriching developers and architects with cloud-focused solutions. Registration is free.
Calico for Windows goes open source
Since Windows worker node support reached general availability in Kubernetes, Microsoft and Tigera have listened closely to feedback from the community. A big contention point of Windows container users in the Kubernetes community is: “One of the most important open source network policy tools in the market is not available for Windows.
Announcing Dapr integration in Azure API Management Service
Dapr integration in the Azure API Management (APIM) service is now available. This new capability enables operations teams to directly expose Dapr microservices as APIs and make those APIs discoverable and easily consumable by developers with proper controls across multiple Dapr deployments—whether in the cloud, on-premises, or on the edge.
