  • Performance is a Key .NET Core Feature

    .NET Core brings along many optimizations with regards to performance, both in terms of execution speed as well as memory allocation. Examples are optimizations in collections and LINQ extension methods, text processing, networking … There are also new types and concepts, such as Span, that allow doing interesting things. In this article, we will look at how these new concepts can be used.

  • Azure and .NET Core Are Beautiful Together

    ASP.NET Core provides developers a way to develop modern web applications in the environment of their choosing (Linux, macOSX, and Windows). Microsoft Azure gives developers full power to host those web applications in anything from a full VM to a Docker container to Azure's App Service which simplifies management of the host environment. This lets developers focus on code and not servers.

  • Servlet and Reactive Stacks in Spring Framework 5

    Spring Framework 5 supports both traditional servlet-based and reactive web stacks, in the same server application, reflecting a major shift towards asynchronous, non-blocking concurrency in applications. In this article Spring committer Rossen Stoyanchev explores and contrasts both stacks, and explains the range of available choices, and provides guidance for choosing the appropriate stack.

  • Beyond Copy-Pasting Methods: Navigating Complexity

    This article explores how you can try out a context-specific approach, which leads to a context-specific experience. Once we understand more about the complexity behind the problems which we are trying to solve with agile, we clarify the purpose of our agile practice. This is the starting point from which we can build a common focus and sense of priority within our agile culture.

  • A Comparison between Rust and Erlang

    This article will focus on a comparison between Erlang and Rust, detailing their similarities and differences. It may be interesting to both Erlang developers looking into Rust and Rust developers looking into Erlang.
