Tabula Rosa Systems Blog For 3/16/19 - Chiasmus Definition


Chiasmus
Chiasmus Definition

Chiasmus is a rhetorical device in which two or more clauses are balanced against each other by the reversal of their structures in order to produce an artistic effect.

“Tea for two and two for tea”

Let us try to understand chiasmus with the help of an example:

“Never let a Fool Kiss You or a Kiss Fool You.”

Notice that the second half of this sentence is an inverted form of the first half, both grammatically and logically. In the simplest sense, the term chiasmus applies to almost all “criss-cross” structures, and this is a concept that is common these days. In its strict classical sense, however, the function of chiasmus is to reverse grammatical structure or ideas of sentences, given that the same words and phrases are not repeated.

The Environmental Corner - Dedicated to the restoration of our Mother Earth


A study was just published about how damaging the Trump Administration’s policies really are:
PER. YEAR. That’s enough to erase decades of progress in the fight to prevent climate change and slow the rise of our planet’s sea levels.
This can’t wait Paul: Sign your name if you believe Trump should reverse his dangerous rollback of CO2 regulations


Cities, states, and countries all across the planet are ramping up their efforts in historic ways to reduce their carbon footprint and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
But Trump? He’s trying to reverse all of that hard work in order to appease to Big Oil & Gas as well as climate change deniers:
Part of Trump’s rollback includes axing fuel efficiency and vehicle standards put into place under Obama.
The price tag for drivers without these efficiency standards? As high as $236 BILLION over the next 15 years.
And that doesn’t even take into account the fact that Trump completely TRASHED President Obama’s Clean Power Plan -- An item at the top of the fossil fuel industry’s wish list.
We need to reverse Trump’s “virtual surrender” on climate change: Demand he REVERSE his dangerous regulatory rollbacks
Fight back,

Tabula Rosa SystemsTechnical Term - Data Lake


Data Lake
A data lake is a storage repository that holds a vast amount of raw data in its native format until it is needed. While a hierarchical data warehouse stores data in files or folders, a data lake uses a flat architecture to store data. Each data element in a lake is assigned a unique identifier and tagged with a set of extended metadata tags. When a business question arises, the data lake can be queried for relevant data, and that smaller set of data can then be analyzed to help answer the question.

The term data lake is often associated with Hadoop-oriented object storage. In such a scenario, an organization's data is first loaded into the Hadoop platform, and then business analytics and data mining tools are applied to the data where it resides on Hadoop's cluster nodes of commodity computers.
Like big data, the term data lake is sometimes disparaged as being simply a marketing label for a product that supports Hadoop. Increasingly, however, the term is being accepted as a way to describe any large data pool in which the schema and data requirements are not defined until the data is queried.

Data lake vs. data warehouse

Data lakes and data warehouses are both used for storing big data, but each approach has its own uses. Typically, a data warehouse is a relational database housed on an enterprise mainframe server or the cloud. The data stored in a warehouse is extracted from various online transaction processing (OLTP) applications to support business analytics (BA) queries and data marts for specific internal business groups, such as sales or inventory teams.

Data warehouses are useful when there is a massive amount of data from operational systems that needs to be readily available for analysis. Because the data in a lake is often uncurated and can originate from sources outside of the company's operational systems, lakes are not a good fit for the average business analytics user.
