Change Data Capture (CDC) is a technique that captures all data changes in a data archive, collects them and prepares them for transfer and replication to other systems, either as a batch process or as a stream. This blog post focuses on the application of CDC in data lakehouses using the example of Change Data Feed, a variant of CDC developed by Databricks in the context of delta lake-based data lakehouses.

A modern workplace is essential for flexibility and the rapid integration of new technologies, but it also harbours security risks. An effective security strategy must be flexible and quickly adaptable in order to integrate new technologies and ensure data and access security. I explain what this looks like and what needs to be done in my blog post.

In a world where technology is advancing relentlessly, the various insurance intermediary professions need to adapt the way they work in order to stay relevant. But how do insurance intermediaries feel about this new technology? I answer this question in my blog post.

This blog post is the first of three parts whose overarching theme is the open source framework Open Rewrite, which can be used to automate large-scale source code migrations. In this first part, I will briefly outline the motivation for using Open Rewrite. I will describe how existing migrations can be used to modernise a software product.

One of the major global challenges is the climate crisis. It has been with us for some time now and is manifested, among other things, in the increase in climate-related extreme weather events. AI can also provide support in this context. This blog post shows in which scenarios this can be the case, how the use of AI works and what hurdles there are.

AI is indispensable for companies' customer relationships in the digital world. It automates processes, analyses data intelligently and adapts content in real time. This enables customer needs to be better met, customer behaviour to be analysed in detail and all touchpoints of the customer journey to be optimised. I present further insights and solutions in my blog post.

The world of artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved rapidly with the introduction of generative models such as ChatGPT. This blog post takes a look at use cases for generative AI and considers the future possibilities of this technology.

Sustainability in IT is no longer a niche topic. More and more IT managers are making a public commitment to reducing the environmental impact of the IT for which they are responsible. This blog post provides an overview of specific aspects that should not be missing from a holistic green IT strategy.

Metadata-driven data pipelines are a game changer for data processing in companies. These pipelines use metadata to dynamically update processes instead of manually revising each step every time a data source changes. As with data pipelines, metadata maintenance can be a bottleneck in the maintenance and further development of a pipeline framework. In this blog post, I use practical examples to show how the Jsonnet template language makes it easier to maintain metadata.
