Shift-left is an approach to software development and operations that emphasizes testing, monitoring, and automation earlier in the software development lifecycle. The goal of the shift-left approach is to prevent problems before they arise by catching them early and addressing them quickly. When you identify a scalability issue or a bug early, it is quicker and more cost-effective to resolve it.

Business leaders benefit from in-the-moment business insights. They frequently articulate the need for real-time visibility into business data to support agile business decisions. But existing business intelligence (BI) tools often lack the broad context, ease of data access, and real-time insights needed to understand and improve customer experience and complex business processes.

(Editor’s Note: This post was submitted as a rebuttal to Andrew Chien’s July 24 SIGARCH Blog Post ) The recent post “ Why Embodied Carbon is a poor Architecture Design metric, and Operational Carbon remains an important Problem ” by Prof. Andrew Chien rightfully raises awareness of the challenges of reducing operational carbon. Specifically, we agree that one of the grand challenges of sustainable computing is matching electrical load with the availability of low-carbon electricity.

In InnoDB, the undo log and the redo log are two indispensable components that play a vital role in maintaining data integrity and ensuring transactional consistency. Both logs are crucial in the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) properties of database systems. Additionally, they are essential for the Multi-Version Concurrency Control ( MVCC ) mechanism.

Then it dropped almost as quickly: it dropped back to #8 in June, and fell further to #19 in July.

The value of a prototype is in the insight it imparts, not the code being written. Prototyping lets us fail fast and cheap, or get the data to make a concrete decision on direction. It helps answer the question, "What happens if we try this?" Most significantly, prototyping provides us with the guardrails to safely and productively fail. Failure is an integral part of the process of learning.

With up to 70% of security events going uninvestigated, security analysts need all the help they can get. After a security event, many organizations often don’t know for months (or even years) when why or how it happened. This represents a significant risk, with the same attack vector repeatedly getting exploited if a vulnerability is not resolved on time.
