Storage startup Pliops has announced sampling of its Storage Processors to select tier-one cloud and enterprise companies and was on track to start commercial production of the processors later in 2020.
The Storage Processors ASICs are said to increase performance of NAND flash storage solutions, such as SSDs, by over 10 times and also decrease latency by up to 1000 times in various database applications.
Someone else at the site I got this story from said it better than I ever could:
Cassandra.....Oracle.....MySQL....know what else can make these RDBMS's faster? Swift and frequent beatings for anyone who starts a query with select *

There is a place for select * where 0=1 if you need to get schema information from a table to do things like DAL code generation

IF you're generating that you're not the person who needs their fingers broken.

I would imagine most RDBMS expose an interface for getting schema information without running a select * , Oracle certainly does.

Yeah but each of them is proprietary to a particular database engine. The one I provided works on any SQL92 compliant database.
Sometimes the APIs are just extra BS, man.

Then you will probably need to create some sort of adapter for each database type.

Exactly. Or I can just use SQL92

BleepingComputer can confirm that Garmin has received the decryption key to recover their files encrypted in the WastedLocker Ransomware attack. I guess regular offsite backups weren't on their radar? (or GPS)

Offsite, but not apparently not offline.
That or the attacker waited until the last non-pwnd backup had be automatically deleted.

Great. So Garmin
a) has shown again that it can't do software
b) has helped legitimise ransomware attackers by showing that if you pay they will come through with the key. The whole "don't pay, you won't get your data back" argument no longer holds water.
Thanks Garmin. Awesome.

Microsoft is currently experimenting with a new name and logo for Bing, dubbed as “Microsoft Bing,” perhaps suggesting a rebrand could be in the works soon. They found the solution to beating Google!

And you know what a new logo and branding mean?
That's right more work for everyone's favorite icon designer team.

Save them some time: just use the turd emoji as their icon and be done with it. Maybe just use it for everything they 'rebrand' from here on out.

Yes, that's why I don't use Bing
|

So they have a chance to retire the Bing name and come up with something a little less silly and...they don't. Three cheers for focus group product names.

Microsoft has invested in the security of open-source software for many years and today I’m excited to share that Microsoft is joining industry partners to create the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF), a new cross-industry collaboration hosted at the Linux Foundation. Good job everyone, security's been fixed!
Or will be really soon as the foundation cleans stuff up.

They don't have enough with messed closed source, that now want to screw up the open source too?
