What Is CI/CD and How Does It Work?
CI/CD stands for Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery. It is the automated pipeline that takes code from a developer’s laptop to production. In modern enterprises, CI/CD must also govern data, security, and AI models, not just software builds. Key Takeaways CI/CD replaces slow, manual releases with automated pipelines. It reduces risk by testing, scanning, and […]
Software Development Life Cycle in the Age of AI and Regulation
Traditional SDLC focuses on code. AI-era SDLC must treat data as a first-class artifact. That means embedding data lineage, metadata, and policy enforcement into every phase, from requirements through operations. This aligns with modern risk and security guidance from frameworks like NIST AI RMF and NIST SSDF. Most SDLC content still assumes a world where […]
Performance Testing and Load Testing
Performance and load testing measure how applications, APIs, and AI systems behave under expected and peak demand. In modern enterprises, these tests must include data pipelines, AI models, and governance controls, not just web servers. Key Takeaways Performance testing measures speed, stability, and resource usage. Load testing measures how systems behave at scale. AI and […]
Enterprise Service Repository: The Control Plane for APIs, AI Agents, and Enterprise Workflows
Enterprises are building thousands of APIs, microservices, and AI agents, but most cannot see, govern, or secure them centrally. An Enterprise Service Repository creates a control plane that provides discovery, lineage, policy enforcement, and compliance across every service in the enterprise. Key Takeaways APIs and AI agents now represent the enterprise operating system. Most organizations […]
What Is Customer Experience Management?
Customer Experience Management (CXM) is the practice of managing every customer interaction using data, analytics, and AI to deliver consistent, personalized, and trusted experiences across all channels. Key Takeaways CXM is about managing the full customer journey. Data is the foundation of great experiences. AI enables personalization and automation. Privacy and governance are critical. Solix […]
Apache Spark Resilient Distributed Dataset (RDD)
Apache Spark’s Resilient Distributed Dataset (RDD) is the foundational data structure that enables fault-tolerant, in-memory processing of large-scale datasets across distributed clusters. As an immutable collection of objects partitioned across nodes, RDDs support parallel operations, lazy evaluation, and automatic recovery from failures, making them essential for big data analytics in cloud environments. What is Apache […]
