I am setting up the SAP CPQ module for our Hybris platform and a question on the implementation had been raised. Due to some constraints, setting up the Data Hub might not be possible. What is the second best approach (if there is any) besides the Data Hub to ensure the data flow between sap and the cpq module ?

There is no other OOTB solution besides the Data Hub to ensure the data flow between SAP and CPQ.
If setting up the Data Hub is not possible, you will need to develop some custom solution.

I'm developing a Policycenter integration with BillingCenter. I did the initial step-by-step according to the documentation, but when changing some field of an account in PolicyCenter, the synchronization is not performed as in BillingCenter.
I need to sync PolicyCenter account updates with BillingCenter but I couldn't find anything specific in the documentation
To resolve the issue with the PolicyCenter integration with BillingCenter not synchronizing properly, you can try the following steps:
Check the configuration settings: Ensure that the integration
settings are configured correctly, including the mapping of fields
between PolicyCenter and BillingCenter.
Verify data consistency: Make sure that the data in PolicyCenter and
BillingCenter is consistent and meets the required format. This
includes verifying the data types, length, and values of the fields.
Monitor system logs: Check the logs of both PolicyCenter and
BillingCenter for any error messages or exceptions related to the
integration. This can help you identify any issues with the data or
communication between the two systems.
Test the integration: Run a test of the integration to see if it is
working properly. This can help you identify any issues with the
integration or data flow.
Contact support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, reach out
to the Guidewire support team for assistance. They can provide
guidance on how to troubleshoot the issue and resolve any issues
that may be causing the synchronization problem.
If you need further guidance on any of these steps or have any other questions, you can consult the Guidewire documentation or reach out to the support team for help.

Our Customer currently build out a number of use cases for the client and facilitate the onboarding of logs from 300+ applications. The client is limited on the number of use cases they can support so they have been looking into the option of creating a custom schema with parsers etc.
The focus is insider threat so they are primarily collecting audit/activity logs for these applications.
The challenges they see them are that application audit/activity logs vary greatly and this will make it difficult to bring the data together from multiple applications. The client has a non-standard architecture and ingest their logs through ADX instead of Sentinel and then forward a subset of data for alerting. They also don’t make wide use of native tables yet.
Please do refer the architecture diagram in the attachment.
Question:
Is there a way of normalizing application audit and activity logs so they can build out insider threat use cases over multiple applications?
Any guidance for this requirement would be of great help. Thanks in advance.
I want to connect to the Microsoft Azure IoT Hub with Java to implement a device-gateway with some kind of identity translation. As I don't want to use the proprietary Azure SDK, I'm looking for a suitable AMQP-client-library.
I made first steps with the very high-level Vert.X AMQP client and was able to connect to the IoT Hub with SASL and exchange messages. But as a per-device-authentication is required, I came to the libraries limits fast, as sessions and links are not supported.
There are other AMQP-client-libraries like the parent-library of the Vert.X AMQP Client, Vert.X Proton, and of course the most detailed AMQP-client-implementations Apache Qpid Proton-J and Qpid JMS.
The question which arises now is which library too choose for my usecase? Currently I can't answer it myself satisfactorily, as the available online-resources (documentation and examples) to these libaries itself and the external AMQP-integration to the IoT Hub with other libraries then the Azure SDK are very rare. Apache Qpid seems to be the most powerful but also the most complex one. Vert.X Proton as an easier to use wrapper also supports sessions and links, but probably still doesn't support all required AMQP-features to connect to a IoT hub? It's hard to get an overview on the requirements.
The Azure IoT SDKs are fully open source under MIT license, so not proprietary per se. The Java SDK depends on Apache qpid Proton J and adds a light convinience layer to abstract the protocol itself. Allowing you to take full advantage of all the Azure IoT Hub features. I'm genuinely curious why you would prefer not to use an open source SDK that is supposed to make your life easier. Also curious to why you prefer AMQP rather than MQTT. Once again these are purely genuine questions as I am trying to understand better our developers needs and wants.
Also in case you have not found it there is a doc that explains how IoT Hub uses AMQP here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-hub/iot-hub-amqp-support
I'm working on an IoT project that involves a sensor transmitting its values to an IoT platform. One of the platforms that I'm currently testing is Thingsboard, it is Open Source and I find it quite easy to manage.
My sensor is transmitting active energy indexes to Thingsboard. Using these values, I would like to calculate and show on a widget the values of the active power (= k*[ActiveEnergy(n)- ActiveEnergy(n-1)/Time(n)-Time(n-1)]). This basically means that I want to have access to history data, use this data to generate new data and inject it to my device.
Thingsboard uses Cassandra database to save history values.
One alternative to my problem could be to find a way to communicate with the database via a Web API for example, do the processing and send back the active power by MQTT or HTTP on my device using its access token.
Is this possible?
Is there a better alternative to my problem?
There are several options how to achieve this (based on a layer or component of the system):
1) Visualization layer only. Probably the most simple one. There is an option to apply post-processing function. The function has following signature:
function(time, value, prevValue)
Please note that prevTime is missing, but we may add this in future releases.
post processing function
2) Data processing layer. Use advanced analytics frameworks like Apache Spark to post-process your data using sliding time window, for example.
See our integration article about this.
I heave created a query in (the wonderful tool ) Application Insight Analytics which I intended to use for monitoring in one way or another, but from what I found, this is not that easy?
The query returns some data I would like to set up Application Insight alerts on (such as if (column1 equals '1') then alert() or if(column2 > 10) then alert().
Or if that is not possible, is the Analytics service available either from .net code or power shell? If so, I would be able to create the alert-service myself (not ideal though).
Is any of the above features available?
(I do not think the functionality I´m after is available in Insights. I want to compare two custom events and based on differences between them, take actions if necessary)
There's currently no way to get azure alerts from an Analytics query.
However, there is a request for that on uservoice:
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/357324-application-insights/suggestions/14428134-add-alerts-based-on-results-of-analytics-queries
so go upvote and comment on that to make your voice heard.
There's also a planned service to read data from Analytics through an API as well:
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/357324-application-insights/suggestions/4999529-make-data-accessible-via-apis-for-custom-processin
Which you could write your own service against to do extra work.
