I listen to a lot of music, it’s a constant accompaniment to my work and our evening relaxing. I don’t use streaming services, every couple of weeks I buy a bunch of digital albums and listen to them every day until we’re ready for a new batch. Here’s my favorite six from last year’s listening. I’ve long been a fan of the explosive brass from Balkan wedding bands, and Fanfare Ciocărlia are a prime example of the style. This is energetic blowing from a tight band that gets the adrenaline flowing. On this album they combine with Canadian jazz-rock guitarist…

Modern software development is more complex than ever. Teams work across different operating systems, chip architectures, and cloud environments, each with its own dependency quirks and version mismatches. Ensuring that code runs reproducibly across these environments has become a major challenge that’s made even harder by growing concerns around software supply chain security. Nix is a powerful open-source package manager that builds software in controlled, declarative environments where dependencies are explicitly defined and reproducible. Its functional approach has made it a gold standard for reproducible builds, but it can also be difficult to learn and adopt. Flox is a company…

If you lead an enterprise data science team or a quantitative research unit today, you likely feel like you are living in two parallel universes. In one universe, you have the “GenAI” explosion. Chatbots now write code and create art, and boardrooms are obsessed with how large language models (LLMs) will change the world. In the other universe, you have your day job: the “serious” work of predicting churn, forecasting demand, and detecting fraud using structured, tabular data.  For years, these two universes have felt completely separate. You might even feel that the GenAI hype rocketship has left your core…

How Modern Data Platforms Are Transforming Cybersecurity Operations in Critical InfrastructureThe Energy & Utilities (E&U) sector faces unprecedented cybersecurity challenges as operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) systems converge, creating new vulnerabilities that threat actors are aggressively exploiting. With ransomware attacks on OT/ICS systems surging by 87% in 2024 1 and third-party breaches driving 45% of all security incidents in the energy sector 2 , traditional SIEM solutions are proving inadequate for the scale and complexity of modern security operations.The solution lies in adopting a unified data platform approach that can handle the massive volumes of security telemetry from…

Happy New Year! I hope the holidays gave you time to recharge and spend time with your loved ones. Like every year, I took a few weeks off after AWS re:Invent to rest and plan ahead. I used some of that downtime to plan the next cohort for Become a Solutions Architect (BeSA). BeSA is a free mentoring program that I, along with a few other Amazon Web Services (AWS) employees, volunteer to host as a way to help people excel in their cloud and AI careers. We’re kicking off a 6-week cohort on “Agentic AI on AWS” starting February…
