A New Search Engine – Google Dataset Search | Hitechnectar

This Wednesday (Sep 5, 2018), Google launched a new search engine named Google Dataset Search. Dataset search allows users to search for datasets multiple repositories present on the Web. Much like kaggle, where you can find and publish high-quality datasets to help you in exploring and building models or science projects with that database. You can connect and learn with many data scientists and machine learning engineers about various problems and new approaches.
Announcing the launch of Dataset Search, a new way for researchers to find the datasets they need, wherever they’re hosted, whether it’s a publisher's site, a digital library, or an author's personal web page. Learn more at http://goo.gl/BYSouA 
In a recent post by Natasha Roy, a Research Scientist in Google AI says,
“Google Dataset Search lets you find datasets wherever they’re hosted, whether it’s a publisher’s site, a digital library, or an author’s personal web page.”
It is very similar to how ‘Google Scholar’ works.

Reach and Transparency –

So, In the new Google data engine, the search presents you the access to these universal datasets including the data from KaggleNASA  and NOAA spread across the internet. You can search for any type of data like AI, environmental, social science, documental, civic & government data, or more, and all the available information and data will display.

This is different from a typical search engine as in many cases. Information on specific datasets is many times neither linked and nor indexed. That makes the discovery of data vague and tedious. That is why Google came up with a single interface for just the dataset discovery.

What are the Technology bred Threats to Humanity In Today’s Era

While there have been many policies against deforestation, vehicles are still using way more natural oils and lessening the greenhouse effect and depletion of the ozone-layer for so long. But, it is not having the impact that it is supposed to. Furthermore, some of the humans are responsible for climate deterioration more than the others. And that includes industry and government people. Many policies against industrial waste have been created and are rolling-on for past few decades but don’t seem to be working against global warming. Why? It is because the rate of which we are depleting and consuming nature is not even close to the speed of maintaining the balance. These policies are not even a wall is close to being enough for stopping the rising oceans. On top of that, highly influential politicians stating that global warming is a hoax doesn’t help the earth’s deteriorating health. Read More

The  Cost of a Data Breach Study  (2018) by Ponemon with IBM Security’s sponsorship reports, a data breach’s average cost to be up by 6.4 per cent over its previous year to $3.86 million, globally. While the average cost for each stolen/lost record containing sensitive and confidential information also increased exponentially. Ransomware and Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities In 2019, ransomware will continue to be the main malware challenge for businesses and beyond. This includes Network Security threats and Software threats & vulnerabilities.  A  virus  is the first thing that comes across over minds with the term “Cyber Security”. Malware opens the door to all of your sensitive d...

Google's New Launch : Flutter 1.0 | What is “Stable Cross-Platform”?

Cross-platform (CP) application development is in the limelight lately, and more so as Google announces Flutter 1.0. Many enterprises are now considering CP for developing any new product. Google finally unveiled a stable version of their cross-platform mobile app development – Flutter 1.0, Google’s UI toolkit, on 4th December 2018 at the Live event in London. Cross-Platform SDK Cross-platform development involves the use of a single codebase for creating software applications that can be deployed on multiple platforms. This is particularly put to use when companies wish to sell the same product for more than one software environment such as Windows, Android and iOS. Various advantages of using these SDKs are: Reusable code Convenience Maintainable code Cost-effective Market Reach Flutter 1.0 CP SDKs are particularly important as developing CP apps can be a total mess of non-native code. This is why Google has set out to create a CP SDK which can integrate smo...
