The What and Why of Programmable Proxies
A question which gets often asked is “What is a programmable proxy, and why do I need one?” This article tries to answer this question from different perspectives. We will start with a brief definition of what a proxy is, then discuss how proxies evolved, explaining what needs they responded to and what benefits they offered at each stage. Finally, we discuss several aspects of programmability.

A Recipe to Migrate and Scale Monoliths in the Cloud
In this article, I want to present a simple cloud architecture that can allow an organization to take monolithic applications to the cloud incrementally without a dramatic change in the architecture. We will discuss the minimal requirements and basic components to take advantage of the scalability of the cloud.

How to Fight Climate Change as a Software Engineer
We need to reduce and eliminate greenhouse gas emissions to stop climate change. But what role does software play, and what can software engineers do? Let’s take a look under the hood to uncover the relationship between greenhouse gas emissions and software, learn about the impact that we can have, and identify concrete ways to reduce emissions when creating and running software.

Level up Your Java Performance with TornadoVM
GPUs, FPGAs, or multi-core CPUs are present in almost every computing system today. These devices help increase performance and run more efficient workloads, but most frameworks are built on C or C++ only. At QCon Plus, Juan Fumero spoke about TornadoVM, a high-performance computing platform for the JVM, allowing to offload, at runtime, Java code to run on heterogeneous hardware accelerators.

How to Bridge the Gap between Netops and Secops for Ultimate Network Management and Security
Sometimes it can seem like a new IT management paradigm arrives every week. First, we had DevOps; then DevSecOps; now the most innovative organizations are talking about AIOps and even NetAIOps. Yet what is often forgotten about in this rush to name new ways of working is that many of them have been in place in the best-run teams for decades - a great example of this is NetOps and SecOps.
