Log Aggregation in YugabyteDB with Grafana Loki

Log Aggregation in YugabyteDB with Grafana Loki

Log aggregation is an integral part of a distributed system. As the name suggests, a distributed system will have multiple processes across multiple machines, and each process will generate a lot of data. Looking at the data in silos is time-consuming and wouldn’t yield important information as the data sets still need to be correlated. But aggregating the logs is a huge productivity booster that helps to transform the raw log data into insightful information.

Securing YugabyteDB: Part 3 – CQL Client-to-Server Encryption in Transit

Securing YugabyteDB: Part 3 – CQL Client-to-Server Encryption in Transit

In Part 1 and Part 2 of this blog series, we covered securing YugabyteDB through the database’s internal RPC and SQL protocols using the TLS encryption protocol. In this post, we explore how to secure communication between CQL clients and the CQL-compatible YCQL query interface of YugabyteDB, as part of the client-to-server encryption in transit setup.

Encryption in transit is a common requirement for client-to-server communication.

Building a Simple Application with YugabyteDB and Prisma

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. Rather than moving towards a schema-less database solution, many find using an ORM (object-relational mapping) tool with SQL to be their preferred option. 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) 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,
