Yahoo India has signed a pact with India's leading mobile services provider Reliance according to which Reliance India Mobile users will be able to use Yahoo! Messenger on this network. Reliance has second largest customer base in India after Airtel which has collaborated with Google for search services. 3rd largest player Idea had also teamed up with Yahoo last year.

Signed URLs are pretty nifty feature given by Google Cloud Platform to let anyone access your cloud storage (bucket or any file in the bucket) without need to sign in. Official documentation gives step by step details as to how to read/write to the bucket using gsutil or through a program. This article will tell you how to upload a file to the bucket using curl so that any client which doesn't have cloud SDK installed can do this using a simple script. This command creates a signed PUT URL for your bucket. gsutil signurl -c 'text/plain' -m PUT serviceAccount.json gs://test_bucket_location Here is my URL: https://storage.googleapis.com/test_sl?GoogleAccessId=my-project-id@appspot.gserviceaccount.com&Expires=1490266627&Signature=UfKBNHWtjLKSBEcUQUKDeQtSQV6YCleE9hGG%2BCxVEjDOmkDxwkC%2BPtEg63pjDBHyKhVOnhspP1%2FAVSr%2B%2Fty8Ps7MSQ0lM2YHkbPeqjTiUcAfsbdcuXUMbe3p8FysRUFMe2dSikehBJWtbYtjb%2BNCw3L09c7fLFyAoJafIcnoIz7iJGP%2Br6gAUkSnZXgbVjr6wjN%2FIaudXIqA

Running Apache Beam pipeline using Spark Runner on a local standalone Spark Cluster

The best thing about Apache Beam ( B atch + Str eam ) is that multiple runners can be plugged in and same pipeline can be run using Spark, Flink or Google Cloud Dataflow. If you are a beginner like me and want to run a simple pipeline using Spark Runner then whole setup may be tad daunting. Start with Beam's WordCount examples which help you quickstart with running pipelines using different types of runners. There are code snippets for running the same pipeline using different types of runners but here the code is running on your local system using Spark libraries which is good for testing and debugging pipeline. If you want to run the pipeline on a Spark cluster you need to do a little more work! Let's start by setting up a simple standalone single-node cluster on our local machine. Extending the cluster is as easy as running a command on another machine, which you want to add to cluster. Start with the obvious: install spark on your machine! (Remember to have Java a

Changing Eclipse Workspace Directory

Recently I moved my entire Eclipse installation directory but the workspace was still getting created in the older location only.

Goto ECLIPSE_HOME\configuration\.settings directory, edit the org.eclipse.ui.ide.prefs file and change the RECENT_WORKSPACES value to the desired location. If you want that Eclipse prompts you to select workspace when you start it, change the SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG value to true. And you are done!
