Development Tools in 2006: Any Room for a 4GL-Style Language?
In March 2006, I started a survey Informix 4GL and its possible replacements.The survey was run from March to July 2006. 95 people replied. Replies came from allaround the world. The idea was to get a general feeling about how people were using 4GL,why they used it, on which platforms and against which databases and what are thetrends.

Implementing Data Mesh
As data continues to grow and become more complex, organizations seek innovative solutions to manage their data effectively. Data Mesh is one solution that provides a new approach to managing data in complex organizations. This practical guide offers step-by-step guidance on how to implement data mesh in your organization. In this book, Jean-Georges Perrin and Eric Broda focus on the key components of data mesh and provide practical advice supported by code. You'll explore a simple and intuitive process for identifying key data mesh components and data products, and learn about a consistent set of interfaces and access methods that make data products easy to consume. This approach ensures th...
Data Mesh
Many enterprises are investing in a next-generation data lake, hoping to democratize data at scale to provide business insights and ultimately make automated intelligent decisions. In this practical book, author Zhamak Dehghani reveals that, despite the time, money, and effort poured into them, data warehouses and data lakes fail when applied at the scale and speed of today's organizations. A distributed data mesh is a better choice. Dehghani guides architects, technical leaders, and decision makers on their journey from monolithic big data architecture to a sociotechnical paradigm that draws from modern distributed architecture. A data mesh considers domains as a first-class concern, applie...
High Performance Spark
Apache Spark is amazing when everything clicks. But if you haven’t seen the performance improvements you expected, or still don’t feel confident enough to use Spark in production, this practical book is for you. Authors Holden Karau and Rachel Warren demonstrate performance optimizations to help your Spark queries run faster and handle larger data sizes, while using fewer resources. Ideal for software engineers, data engineers, developers, and system administrators working with large-scale data applications, this book describes techniques that can reduce data infrastructure costs and developer hours. Not only will you gain a more comprehensive understanding of Spark, you’ll also learn ...
Thinking with Data
Many analysts are too concerned with tools and techniques for cleansing, modeling, and visualizing datasets and not concerned enough with asking the right questions. In this practical guide, data strategy consultant Max Shron shows you how to put the why before the how, through an often-overlooked set of analytical skills. Thinking with Data helps you learn techniques for turning data into knowledge you can use. You’ll learn a framework for defining your project, including the data you want to collect, and how you intend to approach, organize, and analyze the results. You’ll also learn patterns of reasoning that will help you unveil the real problem that needs to be solved. Learn a framework for scoping data projects Understand how to pin down the details of an idea, receive feedback, and begin prototyping Use the tools of arguments to ask good questions, build projects in stages, and communicate results Explore data-specific patterns of reasoning and learn how to build more useful arguments Delve into causal reasoning and learn how it permeates data work Put everything together, using extended examples to see the method of full problem thinking in action
