Hudi powering data lake efforts at Walmart and Disney+ Hotstar
The open source Apache Hudi data lake project is helping power large deployments at a number of big enterprises, including Uber, Walmart and Disney+ Hotstar.
Apache Hudi (Hadoop Upserts, Deletes and Incrementals) is a technology that was originally developed at Uber in 2016 and became an open source project the following year.
In June 2021, Hudi became a Top-Level Project at the Apache Software Foundation, which was a major milestone for the project's maturity. Hudi provides a series of capabilities for data lakes, including a table format and services that enable organizations to effectively manage data for data queries, operations and analytics.

Aditi’s Open Source Journey
Hi! I am Aditi from India.
According to Wikipedia, India annually produces 1M engineering graduates! (Yep! That’s a lot). And I am one of the 1M graduating in 2022. Just like most people, when I started studying back in 2018, I was pretty lost!
I spent my first three semesters trying to find a perfect road-map to being a good developer in a sea of infinite possibilities, skimming through various options. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do, I just knew, I liked being in the field! It took me 1.5 years to realize that there is no perfect roadmap, it’s just as simple as when you start something, you like it, you stay consistent and end up in the right place!

One of the best pieces of advice I received from her: “Switch from Windows to Linux!”

I finished my outreachy initial application and devoted all my time in finding the perfect organization. That’s when I found GNOME. The skills required were C++ and JS – two languages I knew I had some experience in and liked working with. The GNOME community was indeed awesome. I never felt like an outsider. And that’s when I met Philip Chimento, one of the best mentors I’ve ever had. I remember being super excited when I finished building my first small app using GJS! (It just read a file and returned the number of lines, but it worked and that felt like a good enough reason to go on! ). I couldn’t wait to officially start my internship with GNOME but my Outreachy initial application got rejected again because of time commitment issues.

Fileless Malware on Linux: Anatomy of an Attack | LinuxSecurity.com
Recent years have demonstrated that Windows users are not the only ones who should be concerned about malware. Linux is becoming an increasingly popular target among malware operators due to the growing popularity of the open-source OS and the high-value devices it powers worldwide.

So what exactly is fileless malware and how does a fileless malware attack on Linux work? This article will provide you with answers to these questions by honing in on the anatomy of a Linux fileless malware attack - equipping you with the knowledge necessary to secure your systems and your data against this stealthy and malicious threat.
