SQL | News, how-tos, features, reviews, and videos
Business happens in real time but many business systems don’t. It’s time to move past client-server databases, data warehouses, and batch processes.
The fediverse offers an opportunity to reboot the social web and gain control of our information diets. Steampipe and its Mastodon plugin can help you seize it.
The new updates to the managed version of Yugabyte’s open source distributed SQL database include support for AWS PrivateLink, improved observability, and faster scalability.
Using Steampipe and SQL to pool Mastodon timelines and point queries and dashboards at the combined histories of teams or groups.
Which Mastodon servers are blocking other Mastodon servers, and which servers are being blocked? We can discover them using Steampipe’s relationship graphs.
How Steampipe’s API queries and relationship graphs enable maps that select what is helpful and omit what isn’t.
The fediverse is our chance to reboot the social web and gain control of our information diets. Let’s make it trivial for anyone to turn on a rule like ‘news only on lists, not timelines.’
We’re in one of those internet moments of rapid innovation, when new conventions can unlock emergent behaviors. Enjoy it!
After overcoming a few obstacles, my set of Steampipe dashboards is starting to feel like the Bloomberg terminal for Mastodon that I envision.
Steampipe’s Mastodon dashboards are image-free for now, and I think it’s having a calming effect. Perhaps all social media interfaces should have an optional text mode.
