Streaming ETL with Condense: A Faster, Smarter Alternative to Batch Processing
Introduction From Batch ETL to Real-Time Streaming — and Why Kafka Changed Everything For decades, enterprises relied on batch-oriented ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes to move and prepare data for analysis. Batch ETL was designed in an era where data volumes were modest, real-time decision-making was rare, and overnight data refresh cycles were acceptable.

Mysterious Metallic Sphere Found in Colombia Ignites UFO Debate and Human Curiosity
Mysterious Metallic Sphere Found in Colombia Ignites UFO Debate and Human Curiosity In early May 2025 a quiet Colombian town became the center of a global mystery. Nestled in the scenic valleys of Buga, a small but historically rich municipality locals stumbled upon a strange metallic object perfectly spherical unusually cold to the touch and eerily smooth. What followed wasn’t just a scientific investigation it was an emotional cultural and philosophical journey into the unknown.

Technology and Artificial Intelligence: Friend or Foe?
By Lydia Sage The man stood, clothed in black, with cords connecting to the cybernetic devices placed on the right side of his bald head, where a bright red laser light seemed to blind any who looked at it. His familiar voice spoke, “I am Locutus of Borg. Resistance is futile. Your life as it has been is over. From this time forward you will service—us.” The unthinkable had happened—our beloved Federation Captain, Jean-Luc Picard had been assimilated. He had turned on humanity and the very Universe he had sworn to protect. Now he had become one of THEM—the Borg—the machine-like beings bent on annihilating planets, eliminating entire species from existence.

How AI Is Changing Our Daily Lives: 7 Ways You Didn’t Expect
Artificial Intelligence (AI) used to be something we associated with sci-fi movies, robotic assistants, or tech labs buzzing with machines. But fast-forward to 2025, and AI has quietly slipped into our daily lives—not just in obvious ways, but in subtle, surprising ones that we barely notice. It’s reshaping how we eat, work, shop, love, and even dream. This isn’t a look into the future—it’s already here.

A World Without Jobs: What Happens When AI Wins?
It started quietly. First, it was the cashiers and warehouse workers. Then, the call center agents, accountants, and marketing assistants. Eventually, even coders, doctors, and teachers found themselves replaced—not all at once, but gradually, in small, efficient waves.

Agent AI & Autonomous Systems
Agentic AI and Autonomous Systems: Intelligent Automation's Future Agentic AI, a next-generation advancement in artificial intelligence that combines autonomy, decision-making, and task execution, will be one of the most transformative technology trends in 2025. Agentic AI is reshaping industries, redefining productivity, and providing a new framework for how machines interact with the world in conjunction with autonomous systems. What Agentic AI is, how it works, and why it is poised to lead intelligent automation in the future are discussed in depth in this article. What exactly is agentic AI? Systems of artificial intelligence that are intended to function as autonomous "agents" are referred to as "agentic AI." Agentic AI systems can, in contrast to traditional AI, which frequently requires step-by-step instructions or performs narrowly defined tasks: Make a plan and set goals based on the situation. Execute tasks in multiple steps without the intervention of a human Changeable environment and data inputs require adaptation. Work together with other systems or people to accomplish difficult goals. These AI agents have behaviors and long-term reasoning abilities that are comparable to human problem-solving skills. Agentic versus Conventional AI It is essential to distinguish Agentic AI from conventional AI in order to comprehend the innovation at its core: Feature Traditional AI Agentic AI.
