Building a Simple Application with YugabyteDB and Prisma

When building modern web applications, developers often find data modeling and data access to be productivity bottlenecks.

The Node.js community has long been supportive of the Sequelize ORM, with Prisma being a newer option for those looking to model, migrate, and query their data.

In this blog, we’ll get acquainted with Prisma and how it interfaces with Node.js and YugabyteDB.

Change Data Capture (CDC) Using a Spring Data Processing Pipeline

Change Data Capture (CDC) is a technique to capture changes in a source database system in real-time. The goal is to stream those changes as events through a data processing pipeline for further processing.

CDC enables many use cases, especially in modern microservices-based architecture that involves a lot of bounded services. It is the de-facto choice for use cases such as search indexes, in-memory data cache, real-time notifications, data sync between sources,

But it’s clear a modern database is required to match the ambition of app modernization.

That’s where the YugabyteDB and VMware Tanzu story comes in.
