Being an imposter is not specific to a particular career path nor a certain level of experience. Imposter syndrome doesn’t know gender, age, or origin. All it knows is hindering you from getting to where you deserve to be and sabotage your well-deserved growth. In such a broad and multidisciplinary field like data science, doubting your skills and capabilities can find its way your heart with all those extensive lists of “Ideal skills of a perfect data scientist.”

These persisting internalized self-sabotaging behaviors are destructing your career in both the short, and long-term, and here’s how dangerous that can be:

Stops you from learning.

The use of existing assets within multiple disciplines has proven to be a key benefit for advancing research, scientific discovery, and innovation. These assets can be any product or by-product of the development cycle. They could be code, images, software, web services, APIs, and data in its structured and unstructured forms. Nevertheless, finding these existing assets and making use of them remains challenging withing the research community. Thus, the need for principles to get the most value of data responsibly.

In 2016, an international group of researchers came together to find how to enable the sharing and reuse of datasets…

The explosion of interest in Artificial intelligence impact and trends has led to the rise of many questions and commentaries over the last decades. One of the most popular points of view is that Artificial intelligence and its sub-fields are dead, and other trending advanced technologies will take over. Is it true that AI is dead? Let’s dive in!

As data is significantly growing, storing large amounts of information across a network of machines becomes a necessity. Therefore, comes the need for a reliable system, called distributed filesystems, to control how data is stored and retrieved. However, many challenges emerge with the implementation of such infrastructure, for instance, handling hardware failure without losing data.

In this article, we’ll focus on Hadoop’s distributed filesystem — HDFS, its design, its architecture, and the data flow.

The design of HDFS

The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is a distributed file system designed to:

Run on commodity hardware.

Hadoop is designed to run on affordable devices commonly…
