  • Reduce Carbon Dioxide Emissions with Serverless and Kubernetes Native Java

    Moving application workloads to multi- and hybrid cloud platforms causes more carbon dioxide emissions, although better scalability and performance. Serverless and Kubernetes Native Java enable developers to solve the global climate changes by reducing carbon dioxide emissions by natively native features with milliseconds first boot time, tiny resident set size memory and scalability.

  • How Do We Utilize Chaos Engineering to Become Better Cloud-Native Engineers?

    Engineers these days are closer to the product and the customer needs—there is still a long way to go and companies are still struggling with how to get engineers closer to their customers to understand in-depth what their business impact is: what do they solve, what’s their influence on the customer, and what is their impact on the product?

  • Netflix Drive: Building a Cloud-Native Filesystem for Media Assets

    In this article, Tejas Chopra discusses Netflix Drive, a generic cloud drive for storing and retrieving media assets - a collection of media files and folders in Netflix. Netflix Drive ties together disparate data (such as: AWS S3, Ceph Storage, Google Cloud Storage, and others) and metadata stores in a cogent form for creating, cataloging and serving these assets to applications and workflows.

  • Evolving DevSecOps to Include Policy Management

    A thorough implementation of policy management tools is required for effective compliance and security management in a DevOps environment. Companies that accept policy management in DevSecOps as a way of development and have adopted some level of policy management best practices tend to operate more efficiently.

  • 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.

  • Reducing Cognitive Load in Agile DevOps Teams Using Team Topologies

    In this article we will be sharing our experience from 12 months of adopting certain management and organisational insights from the book Team Topologies. It explores how we identified areas of responsibility and assigned those into mostly customer-facing domains which could be given to our teams. It shows how an inverse Conway manoeuvre can be used to improve the architecture.

  • Chaos Engineering and Observability with Visual Metaphors

    This article introduces a new actor for visualising chaos engineering and observability: metaphors. It provides the conceptual foundations of chaos engineering and observability, presents a state of art of visualisation techniques available in the market and shows how treemaps, gauge charts, geocentric and city metaphors can enrich the spectrum of the visual strategies to observe the chaos.

  • Getting Started to Quarkus Reactive Messaging with Apache Kafka

    How data is processed/consumed nowadays is different from how it was once practiced. In the past, data was stored in a database and it was batch processed for analytics. Apache Kafka is a distributed event store and stream-processing platform for storing, consuming, and processing data streams in real-time. In this post, we’ll learn how to produce and consume data using Apache Kafka and Quarkus.

  • The Role of DevOps in Cloud Security Management

    Different areas of cloud security must be examined to strengthen security in the cloud versus security of the cloud. This includes identifying requirements, defining the architecture, analyzing controls, and identifying gaps. Security must be both proactive and reactive, so it needs to be considered in every step of development.

  • Kubernetes Crosses the Chasm, and Other Lessons from the 2021 CNCF Survey

    You know I love a good survey, so let’s take a look at the Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s 2021 annual survey. They asked 2,302 respondents how they use Kubernetes and the more general category of cloud-native tools. The major conclusion of the report is that Kubernetes usage is mainstream, as the sub-title of the report labeled 2021: “The year Kubernetes crossed the chasm.”

  • Two Must-Have Tools for Jakarta EE Developers

    The wildfly-jar-maven-plugin and the brand new wildfly-datasources-preview-galleon-pack from the WildFly project are worthy of your attention. These tools add on-the-fly generation of an Uber JAR including configuration for containerization and datasources, and make it a pleasure to write applications for Jakarta EE and WildFly.

  • InfoQ Culture & Methods Trends Report - March 2022

    The culture and methods trends report for 2022 shows that organizations, teams, and individuals face challenges on multiple fronts. Tackling hybrid work, the impact of the great resignation, wellness, diversity, and inclusion are topics that leaders need to address head-on to build creative and collaborative cultures
