Snowflake is a comprehensive data platform that is predestined for numerous workloads, including data science and AI/Ml. The first part of my blog post on Snowflake's AI capabilities explores the current capabilities for end-to-end machine learning on a single platform based on enterprise-managed data.

Most decisions are made under uncertainty. The real world is an intangible system with a high degree of complexity and a multitude of dependencies. But how exactly does making decisions under uncertainty work? This blog post presents three main strands that are used in research for this purpose.

How can you reap the benefits of digital tools while minimising your environmental impact? This blog post shows how to be more sustainable through conscious use and simple adaptations. Learn how sustainable digital practices can reduce the environmental footprint while promoting efficiency and longevity of technologies.

Digital expertise is a decisive factor for companies that want to be and remain successful. Every area of a company and every sector of the economy is affected by the transformative power of digitalisation. New value chains are emerging, digital tools are revolutionising processes, routines and old ways are being . Technological change is rapid and those who do not keep up remains, loses its competitiveness.

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.

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.

The Cucumber Framework is a powerful open-source tool that is used as part of Behaviour Driven Development. By using a common language, it enables collaboration between non-technical and technical team members. This blog post provides an overview of the basic concepts and features of the Cucumber Framework.
