The Stack Overflow Podcast - Shorten the distance between production data and insight

Modern networked applications generate a lot of data, and every business wants to make the most of that data. Most of the time, that means moving production data through some transformation process to get it ready for the analytics process. But what if you could have in-app analytics? What if you could generate insights directly from production data?

On this sponsored episode of the podcast, we talk with Stanimira Vlaeva, Developer Advocate at MongoDB, and Fredric Favelin, Technical Director, Partner Presales at MongoDB, about how a serverless database can minimize the distance between producing data and understanding it.

Episode notes:

Stanimira talked a lot about using BigQuery with MongoDB Atlas on Google Cloud Run. If you need to skill up on these three tools, check out this tutorial

Once you’ve got the hang of it, get your data connected with Confluent Connetors. 

With Atlas, you can transform your data in JavaScript

Congrats to Stellar Question winner SubniC  for  Get name of current script in Python.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E24: Ethan Song, RareCircles

Ethan Song is a boarder through and through - enjoying snowboarding, surfing, etc. and doing it as often as he can. He loves to read, and has moved more into non-fiction over fiction as he has gotten older. Prior to his current venture, he co-founded Frank & Oak, a successful thoughtful and ethical apparel and e-commerce company.

After the successes of his prior company, Ethan started to explore web3 as a technology, and a product offering. He noticed that most people were focusing on visual assets, but he wanted to create a tool that allows companies to depend their engagement - and revenue - with their customers.

This is the creation story of RareCircles.

The Stack Overflow Podcast - Authorization on rails

Oso is authorization as a service. Check out the docs or explore use cases.

Sam’s post “Why Authorization is Hard” covered what makes authorization challenging, some approaches to solving it, and their associated tradeoffs. You can also watch Sam’s talk at PyCon US 2022. Since it’s impossible to address everything that makes authorization hard in just 5,000 words, Sam is currently at work on a follow-up article called “Why Authorization is Hard Part II.”

Sam first learned web development via Rails for Zombies, a beginner-level Rails course. In creating Oso, he tasked himself with “putting rails on authorization.”

ICYMI: Read Sam’s post about best practices for securing REST APIs or listen to his previous podcast appearance, where we talked about how Oso makes security easier for developers.
