DataBuck
Big Data Quality must always be verified to ensure that data is safe, accurate, and complete. Data is moved through multiple IT platforms or stored in Data Lakes. The Big Data Challenge: Data often loses its trustworthiness because of (i) Undiscovered errors in incoming data (iii). Multiple data sources that get out-of-synchrony over time (iii). Structural changes to data in downstream processes not expected downstream and (iv) multiple IT platforms (Hadoop DW, Cloud). Unexpected errors can occur when data moves between systems, such as from a Data Warehouse to a Hadoop environment, NoSQL database, or the Cloud. Data can change unexpectedly due to poor processes, ad-hoc data policies, poor data storage and control, and lack of control over certain data sources (e.g., external providers). DataBuck is an autonomous, self-learning, Big Data Quality validation tool and Data Matching tool.

Yandex Data Proc
You determine the cluster size, node specifications, and a range of services, while Yandex Data Proc effortlessly sets up and configures Spark, Hadoop clusters, and additional components. Collaboration is enhanced through the use of Zeppelin notebooks and various web applications via a user interface proxy. You maintain complete control over your cluster with root access for every virtual machine. Moreover, you can install your own software and libraries on active clusters without needing to restart them. Yandex Data Proc employs instance groups to automatically adjust computing resources of compute subclusters in response to CPU usage metrics. Additionally, Data Proc facilitates the creation of managed Hive clusters, which helps minimize the risk of failures and data loss due to metadata issues. This service streamlines the process of constructing ETL pipelines and developing models, as well as managing other iterative operations. Furthermore, the Data Proc operator is natively integrated into Apache Airflow, allowing for seamless orchestration of data workflows. This means that users can leverage the full potential of their data processing capabilities with minimal overhead and maximum efficiency.

Apache Airflow
Airflow is a community-driven platform designed for the programmatic creation, scheduling, and monitoring of workflows. With its modular architecture, Airflow employs a message queue to manage an unlimited number of workers, making it highly scalable. The system is capable of handling complex operations through its ability to define pipelines using Python, facilitating dynamic pipeline generation. This flexibility enables developers to write code that can create pipelines on the fly. Users can easily create custom operators and expand existing libraries, tailoring the abstraction level to meet their specific needs. The pipelines in Airflow are both concise and clear, with built-in parametrization supported by the robust Jinja templating engine. Eliminate the need for complex command-line operations or obscure XML configurations! Instead, leverage standard Python functionalities to construct workflows, incorporating date-time formats for scheduling and utilizing loops for the dynamic generation of tasks. This approach ensures that you retain complete freedom and adaptability when designing your workflows, allowing you to efficiently respond to changing requirements. Additionally, Airflow's user-friendly interface empowers teams to collaboratively refine and optimize their workflow processes.

Passwordless Authentication and Passwordless Security
It’s no secret — passwords can be a real headache, both for the people who use them and the people who manage them. Over time, we’ve created hundreds of passwords, it’s easy to lose track of them and they’re easily compromised. Fortunately, passwordless authentication is becoming a feasible reality for many businesses. Duo can help you get there.
