Data quality testing is a subset of data observability. It is the process of evaluating data to ensure it meets the necessary standards of accuracy, consistency, completeness, and reliability before it is used in business operations or analytics. This involves validating data against predefined rules and criteria, such as checking for duplicates, verifying data formats, ensuring data integrity across systems, and confirming that all required fields are populated.

In 2024, an interconnected network is a must-have. Here’s how to get one and supercharge your business operations. Globally distributed networks, remote workforces, multicloud architectures – all of these setups have something important in common (besides the fact they’re the norm now). They all leverage multiples to maximize business benefits. Multiple locations, multiple endpoint types, multiple cloud providers.

Creating a positive user experience is always one of the most important goals our teams focus on. Whether it’s administrators working behind the scenes on the platform, or users looking to uncover cost savings opportunities in Explorer, or engineers working with our APIs, we always strive to provide a frictionless experience making sure each person has the right information to achieve their goals in our platform.

TLDR: We raised $60M in new funding, led by Scale Venture Partners, with participation from World Innovation Labs, Cross Creek, Alpha Square Group, Patrick and John Collison (Stripe) IVP, Sequoia, and Y Combinator. With this new infusion of capital, we’re looking to further grow developer awareness around IDPs and invest in our platform capabilities with enhanced workflows, engineering intelligence, user interface, and of course, AI.

Cost management in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) can be complex. It’s a lot like costs in Azure or AWS. Often, companies don’t know where to begin when they receive 20-page invoices. GCP billing tools can be unfamiliar, especially to users from a different cloud provider. However, the platform continues to simplify its cost monitoring and billing tools.

In today’s fast-paced software development landscape, efficiency and collaboration are paramount. As teams strive to deliver high-quality software faster, one tool that has emerged as a game-changer is the preview environment. In this blog post, we'll dive into what a preview environment is, why it's essential, and how it can revolutionize your development workflow.

Although GoMock is one of the most popular ways to create mocks in Golang, it’s important to understand the broader landscape of mocking methods in the language to fully leverage its potential value in testing. Mocking is a powerful technique that allows developers to isolate their code, improve test reliability, and ultimately enhance overall code quality.

Manual updating of Salesforce records is far from optimal. If you have ever worked with this CRM, you should know it requires you to find the exact record you want to edit, and only then you’ll be able to change data in its fields. This is fine when you work with separate records, but what if you need to mass update records in Salesforce? If done manually, such an update might eventually lead to errors and consume time.

Users should maintain data consistency to ensure accurate database testing and analysis, especially when generating data in dependent columns. For example, they can use formulas, data generators, or post-scripts to fill in columns based on other columns in the table. However, post-scripts may be complicated and affect database performance. In the article, we’ll explore how to generate values for the referenced columns using dbForge Data Generator for SQL Server.
