Want to know the Metrics to Deliver User Happiness?

How do you quantify user happiness? It’s not easy to measure directly in our systems, but we can look for signals in the user journey. You may experience an outage or other problem that internally seems relatively small, but your users take to Twitter in droves and express their displeasure. Or, you may have a catastrophic event but receive few or no complaints from end users. It is impossible to get inside your users’ heads and see whether they are happy or not while using your service.To overcome this problem, we use the happiness metrics also known as Service Level Indicators (SLIs). SLIs specify, measure, and track user journey success. They are quantifiable measures of reliability. SLIs tell you whether you are in or out of compliance with your SLO targets and are therefore in danger of making users unhappy.Once you choose the services you want to measure, you can then think about the SLIs that you will use to measure users common tasks and critical activities. Choosing SLIs tha

Artifact Repository visibility through Audit Logging

Increasing visibility into our systems, code, and repositories is essential for effective DevOps processes. Previously repository audit logging was available for Docker repositories, but Google Cloud has expanded the capability to include Maven, npm, and Python repositories as well! This is a boon for visibility and monitoring! You can read about how to configure the monitoring by following the link included in this post.How have you implemented monitoring for your repositories? How mature is your organization in providing automated alerting and monitoring? Do you use the audit logging capabilities Google Cloud provides?https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/audit-logging

Building a question answering system with Vertex AI

Let’s say it’s the first day in your new job and you have lots of questions. Where is the HR department located or how do I validate parking? Wouldn’t it be great if you could just ask a chatbot rather than reading through an internal Wiki? Here is a recipe to build one: Select your reference documents and pre-process them in Vertex AI Workbench Download a model from TensorFlow Hub and register with Vertex AI Have Vertex AI process your questions and answers Use Cloud Functions for your REST endpoint Use the Speech-To-Text and Text-To-Speech APIs to allow users using their voice rather than typing Sounds complicated? Nikita Namjoshi and Zack Akil demonstrate in this 16 minutes Google Cloud Applied ML Summit video how to do just that.https://youtu.be/5iSmX8sqtx8

Application Development help

Hi there! I’m new to the community and wondering if anyone knows of any GCP-compatible platforms out there to help us with create an app (software development). I don’t yet have a tech team, and I am not that technical - I’d like to build my MVP and launch it via the Google Play and App Store. I’ve looked into AppSheets but I dont think that will solve our needs. Our startup is in the healthcare space, so we need HIPAA compliance out of the gate as well for data collection. Finally, no matter what, it’s important to me that we own the source code of whatever we’re building - I am not interested in giving up equity for services at this stage. Thank you and I’m super glad to meet you all!

Machine Learning fast

Have you thought about using machine learning to solve a problem but you are not sure if you can solve it fast with ML? If you decide you want to give it a try, but you don’t have much time to build a model from scratch, what are your options? And finally, what if you do not have enough data to train the model? Dale Markowitz, Applied AI Engineer at Google, provides a fast overview on how to approach these questions in this 13 minutes I/O 2022 video. https://youtu.be/BjTNJSQLIeA

Developer Question- How to connect Vision API to app?

Hello,I am working with a developer on how to create an app that uses Face Recognition (Vision API product). How do I connect the app to the vision API so the app works with the Vision API? I have not found the documentation that shows how to connect the two, so it can work as one. Can someone share the documentation or strategy on how to make it work?

Security on GCP

Here are the latest updates, products, services and resources from GCP security teams on May: PSP protocol now open source: In order to better scale the security GCP offer their customers, they created a new cryptographic offload protocol for internal use that they open sourced in May. Intentionally designed to meet the requirements of large-scale data-center traffic, the PSP Protocol is a TLS-like protocol that is transport-independent, enables per-connection security, and is offload-friendly. Updating Siemplify SOAR: The future of security teams is heading towards “anywhere operations,” and the latest version of Siemplify SOAR can help get us there. It gives organizations the building blocks needed across cloud infrastructure, automation, collaboration, and analytics to accelerate processes for more timely responses and automated workflows. In turn, this can free up teams to focus on more strategic work. Guardrails and governance for Terraform: Popular open-source Infrastruct

An introduction to MLOps with TensorFlow Extended (TFX)

Machine Learning (ML) model code accounts for approximately 5% of the total code needed to train, deploy, and run ML models in production according to Google research. The goal of MLOps is a production-level process, similar to DevOps, but with data as a first-class citizen. Robert Crowe, Tensorflow Developer Engineer, introduces TFX, an open-source project, in this 13 minutes I/O 2022 video. If you are interested in getting started with MLOps, this video is for you.https://io.google/2022/program/8f7765f2-2357-4829-8c87-e54d81e999a0/

What's Postgres transaction ID utilization and why it matters

PostgreSQL uses transaction IDs (also called TXIDs or XIDs) to implement Multi-Version Concurrency Control semantics (MVCC).To prevent transaction ID wraparound, PostgreSQL uses a vacuum mechanism, which operates as a background task called autovacuum (enabled by default), or it can be run manually using the VACUUM command. A vacuum operation freezes committed transaction IDs and releases them for further use. You can think of this mechanism as “recycling” of transaction IDs that keeps the database operating despite using a finite number to store the transaction ID.Vacuum can sometimes be blocked due to workload patterns, or it can become too slow to keep up with database activity. If transaction ID utilization continues to grow despite the freezing performed by autovacuum or manual vacuum, the database will eventually refuse to accept new commands to protect itself against TXID wraparound. To help you monitor your database and ensure that this doesn’t happen, Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL
