Just for a Laugh: Building a Compiler
Session en anglais - Débutant
Have you ever wondered how a compiler works? Well, no more! In this session we will explore how a compiler works: which steps are invoked in which order and what are the intermediate results? We will also explore how we can use these results for other use cases like an interpreter, code analysis or other tools.
If you are ready to completely geek out over how one of the tools you use every day works, come join Henry and find out!
Lightning-fast querying of hundreds of millions of records u
Session en anglais - Débutant
Have you ever ingested data from thousands of IoT devices? Join this session to learn about Azure Data Explorer. We'll start by exploring how a previous solution used hourly, daily, weekly and monthly batch-processing runs to create pre-aggregated datasets and all of the problems this solution brought. From there we'll follow the evolution of the platform, ending at a solution that uses ADX: less code, faster, cheaper and more performant!
