Google Cloud now gets database migration service

Google has unveiled its database migration service (DMS) for enterprise customers. The service will help enterprise customers migrate MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL server databases to Cloud SQL.



The company wants to make it easier for customers to manage cloud SQL in a most efficient manner. The addition has been long-due on Google Cloud Platform. Amazon has had the database migration service for over five years. Microsoft also has a similar service for Azure.


In an official post, Google's General Manager and Vice President for Engineering Databases, Andi Gutmans said, "With Database Migration Service, we're delivering a simplified and highly compatible product experience so that, no matter where our customers are starting from, they have an easy, and secure way to migrate their databases to Cloud SQL."

Google has partnered with Striim to offer the database migration service. The partnership has simplified the process and reduced time and chances of failure. The major reason why Google is launching its DMS is to capitalise on the cloud computing demand.

Cloud SQL is among the fastest-growing services on Google Cloud. The migration tool will help customers eliminate the hassle of provisioning, mangling and monitoring migration specific resources.

DMS is launched as a preview edition. It supports migration of self-hosted MySQL databases either on-premise or in the cloud. You can also manage databases from other clouds to Cloud SQL. Google has added support for PostgreSQL for limited customers in Preview, with SQL server coming soon.

Making open source JavaScript pay

Image
Money isn’t everything to the success of the most popular JavaScript frameworks. Or is it? Looking at the  2019 State of JavaScript report , something stands out: Money apparently can’t buy everything. Or, at least, not every major front-end and back-end programming framework is sponsored by a big company. Sure, we have Google to thank for  Angular , and Facebook gets credit for  React , but what about  Vue.js ? Or Gatsby? Or Next.js? While these (and other) open source projects do seem to suggest a future without Big Corps shoveling Big Money into open source, the reality is a bit more nuanced. For the developers looking to pay their way through open source, however, reality isn’t nuanced at all. For every Vue.js founder  Evan You making $16,000 per month with Patreon contributions , there are thousands of developers struggling to scrape together $16 for the important open source work they’re doing.

How artificial intelligence is making the education system more relevant?

Image
Digital learning solutions equipped with artificial intelligence are making revolutionary changes to the way education is imparted in students with varied interests and capabilities. When we think of artificial intelligence, there is a hardwired imagery of gigantic thinking machines working in sci-fi environment. This imagery often comes from the science fiction that we have been watching or reading since childhood. However, deep diving suggests that artificial intelligence is an advanced form of algorithm that empowers machines to emulate human behavior under real life situations. Today, there is no industry untouched by the ripples caused by artificial intelligence. Education sets the foundation of human behavior. Educational ecosystem is formed by knowledge base, teaching skills and experience, learning capability, and evolving teaching methods. Digital learning solutions equipped with artificial intelligence are making revolutionary changes to the way education is im

Open-source software tracks neural activity in real time

Image
The tool, called CaImAn, replaces the process of manually tracking the location and activity of neurons Tracking the firings of individual neurons is like trying to discern who is saying what in a football stadium full of screaming fans. Until recently, neuroscientists have had to tediously track each neuron by hand. "People spent more time analyzing their data to extract activity traces than actually collecting it," says Dmitri Chklovskii, who leads the neuroscience group at the Center for Computational Biology (CCB) at the Flatiron Institute in New York City. A breakthrough software tool called CaImAn automates this arduous process using a combination of standard computational methods and machine-learning techniques. In a paper published in the journal  eLife  in January, the software's creators demonstrate that CaImAn achieves near-human accuracy in detecting the locations of active neurons based on calcium imaging data. CaImAn (an abbreviation of c
