I am studying computer engineering. And I am thinking of learning Google Cloud Dataflow.
So I wanted to ask is it good to learn Google Cloud Dataflow as a student in UG. Also I don't have much experience with Big Data or Hadoop.
If yes then how do I start learning it?

We think Google Cloud Dataflow is an excellent place to start with Big Data analytics. We have built it from the ground up with simplicity and ease of use in mind.
Knowledge about other data processing technologies, such as MapReduce or Hadoop, would help a little to get you started, but they won't be hugely beneficial in learning or using Cloud Dataflow. With such a background, however, the benefits of the fully-managed service that the Cloud Dataflow provides would be more obvious.
A good place to start is our main page. You'll find all the relevant information there. Feel free to tag StackOverflow questions with google-cloud-dataflow with any questions that may come up.
That said, Cloud Dataflow service is currently in Alpha phase and access to it is limited to whitelisted users only. You may apply to be whitelisted.

I want to use my own servers for cloud functions instead of relying on Google's to eliminate the cold start of functions, how can I do this?
firebaser here
There is currently no native way to run your Cloud Functions on your own server. You can run the Firebase emulator suite to emulate functions, but those are not ready for production use.
The more common approach is to set up your own server, using something like Express. But you won't get the other trigger types that Cloud Functions offers, as those are only available within Google's infrastructure at the moment and you'll have to take care of scaling with the load yourself too.

How do I do my business logic on server-side on firebase?
Will the web app still have the benefits of progressive web app if I do this?
Reason to do this: Anybody can run Javascript code on your website if the person knows how to use the developer tools available in modern browsers.
Is firebase Queue (NodeJS on AWS) the way? I am a noob to all this.
You need to write more of your business logic on font-side than traditional way. To make it safe, you need to write access rules carefully on firebase console.
And it's not enough, you also need a server-side, nodejs is a good choice, there are many useful library, such as firebase, firebase-queue, firebase-admin. You can deploy these servers on the google cloud with docker.

I'm going to write a routing and navigation application for our company. I think I have two options . Google APIs and Nokia APIs through Qt Mobility ! I'm not sure which one I should use to reach better results. By better results I mean better integrity in my application that is going to be a desktop application. And If the answer is google APIs I'm not sure which one of google APIs I should use?
Thanks in advance
Well this is an interesting one, the Qt Mobility APIs hooking into the Nokia mapping stuff are available and would make your life easier but with the changes that have occurred recently with Nokia selling off Qt there's no guarantee that they'll still work in 6 months time. With the Google mapping APIs they're a bit more, well, stable.
Which Google API? Well, I'm not too up to speed on it, but as far as I know you can use the Javascript API and hook it into a QWebView which should be pretty straight forward.

I have an engineering firm and our website was built using Visual Studio 2010 / asp.net 4.0 / VB. Recently, a client (GM) requested that we have a knowledge base where they can input their questions, and we can answer 'em. Kind of like a FAQ, or a Lessons Learned type of thing. But it'll require that they'll be able to log in and ask their own questions.
For instance: Q: How would I incorporate multiple machine vision systems into a bead detection application?
A: You would need to use a software such as PPT and have multiple fixtures in order to assimilate the cameras accordingly.
I'm terrible at databases; I can basically run an SQL query, and that's about it! lol. And I'm not a programmer by trade. Can I do this without a database? Can anyone guide me in the right direction here? I mean, is there something out there that's open-source, or at least something that's easy to implement?
Any guidance in this regard would be greatly greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Just install a Wiki.
There are plenty of different ones out there - some written in .NET lanaguages.

Thoughts on moving to Maven in an enterprise environment [closed]

I'm interested in hearing from those who either A) use Maven in an enterprise environment or B) tried to use Maven in an enterprise environment.
I work for a large company that is contemplating bringing in Maven into our environment. Currently we use OpenMake to build/merge and home-grown software to deploy code to 100+ servers running various platforms (eg. WAS and JBoss). OpenMake works fine for us however Maven does have some ideal features, most importantly being dependency management, but is it viable in a large environment? Also what headaches have/did you incur, if any, in maintaining a Maven environment.
Side note, I've read Why does Maven have such a bad rep?, What are your impressions of Maven?, and a few other posts. It's interesting seeing the split between developers.
stackoverflow isn't meant to be for subjective questions and discussion, so to keep it brief:
is it viable in a large environment?
Yes, it's already in use in large environments, both across open source foundations and corporations.
A lot of what Maven provides through it's centralisation, reuse and easy sharing is designed to facilitate multiple different teams or organisations collaborating.
Like anything - you'll get out what you put in. Spend the time implementing the infrastructure you need and designing the organisational structure and project patterns that you'll need and it will pay back dividends.
I'm sure for more details you can find plenty of examples (positive and negative) across the web and particularly on the users#maven.apache.org list.
