Why, What and How ? Informatica

 I was a fan of this software program and during 2010, I started learning about Data warehousing. There were very less tools in the market about data migration. when you learn the ETL tools , you will know about how to use the database, how to access the database. You will need to learn about any database like Oracle 11g or MongoDB or Mysql. You will about connecting to the FTP server and retrieving data from the company server.

The domain sector can be either retail, banking or pharma or it can be anything. There will be huge chunks of data like sales or attendance or something like that. Your job would be

1. Extract the data from source database

2. Load the data into another software say like reporting tool

3. Sometimes you will have to process the data ( either add or remove columns or rows)

Imagine the excel sheet with 1000 rows and 1000 columns, you will have to alter them and it's possible manually. Hence we use the software tool - Informatica Powercenter which is a data migration tool.

quantum computing = physics + math + intelligence

Quantum computer will be faster and it combines the best things from physics and math. From the day of computer's invention we have been using the binary ( either zero or one ) for these years. It's always either success or failure. It's digital bits and bytes consisting of only zero and one which the machine understands. But now it's the quantum computing which is the grand dad of the laptops that we are using. Quantum computing is in it's earlier stages and have you learned about the quantum theory??  this is something amazing they are trying to bring the science and technology as the one. The best thing is science ( physics and math ) is re-created with technology. Quantum Computing - An Overview  - the course explains the basics of quantum computing and how it would change the world in the future. There are lots of things to learn this weekend , just don't lose the hope. Start practising today and dive into the world of quantum computing.

Redbubble - Have you tried it?

Redbubble is the future it's the place where future artists hangout! if you got 5 mins and know how to create designs, then this article is for you! you can place your designs on t-shirts, mugs, calendars, notebooks or look out for the options available there. If you are an artist and keep looking for opportunities, then this is it. Get 10 mins earlier and upload your content daily. The idea is to post daily for the next 10 years, that's correct 10 years - 365 X10 = 3650 days you would get 3650 designs or  if you post 2 designs daily - 7000+ designs ( not good at math :D ) Consistency is the key. Keep posting and initial days, there would be no sales. Over the time, you would keep getting more attention and that's how the sales work. I found an online course on udemy that can help you with complete process at the cost of a coffee. Bring out the artist in you and keep contributing, the more you have your presence on marketplace, the higher the sales. The o...
