It has been a busy year as I worked on this BDT cloud startup. There were many uncertainties, mistakes made, trips back to the drawing board, and tough choices but I finally made it - to the beginning! In any case, I thought you might like to take a fly-through of my workshop. Apparently, it was a robotics facility before, so it came with good power and networking, but also some appliances I didn't recognize. If you know what the big red thing is in the middle of the video, let me know! I thought it was a fume hood, but all the nozzles and things suggest otherwise. Maybe I can do soldering in there :-) Let me know what you think!

We’re proud to introduce something new from MacKenzie & MacKenzie…

🇨🇦 BDT Cloud - a Canadian-based cloud platform built for businesses that want their data closer to home.

After years of working with clients on data, infrastructure, and automation, we saw the need for a simpler, more transparent option for hosting:

✔ Virtual Machines
✔ S3-Compatible Storage
✔ Remote Desktops & Workflows
✔ Firewalled AI Running the Latest LLM

All running on infrastructure we own and operate right here in Canada.

If you - or someone you know - are looking for cloud services with a Canadian focus, feel free to reach out. We’d be happy to chat.

Often as data engineers, we are faced with a situation where we need to create a list of all the possible combinations of objects within a list. For example if we had a list of sports teams and we needed a list that showed every team playing every other team at least one time. This is also known as the binomial coefficient problem, and there is a nice way to calculate this in your database system. Join me as we create a query that makes a list of all of these games from a simple list of teams. See the video link the comments!
