  • What Scares You Most About Adopting a Microservice Architecture?

    Microservices solve all architectural problems - or do they? Which of the many challenges of a microservice architecture worries you most?

  • What's Your Next Native Language?

    What native languages do you use if neither the JVM, .NET VM or JS VM is available or wanted?

  • How Do You Unit Test Your JavaScript Code?

    Recently, we asked you about your JavaScript testing approaches, and your responses showed Unit Testing Tools as the most popular. To follow up, we now want to know which unit testing tools you use.

  • What IoT Technology Have You Used or Learned About?

    InfoQ Research wants to determine the technologies mostly used by our community in their IoT projects.

  • What is Your Interest in the IoT?

    InfoQ wants to evaluate the involvement of our community in hobbyist or real-life IoT projects.

  • JavaScript Testing Approaches

    ​​​Testing, taken in the loosest sense of the word, is widely agreed to be a positive thing, bestowing various benefits, including allowing us to better understand our code, and identifying bugs. What we're wondering is how you are testing JavaScript code -- if indeed you are even testing ​at all. Vote for Functional Testing, Unit Testing Tools, Test Automation Frameworks, or not testing.

  • Emerging Trends in Big Data Technologies

    Big Data technologies have been getting lot of attention over the last few years. There are several trends and innovations happening in this space. InfoQ would like to learn what new trends in Big Data you are currently using or planning on using in the future.

  • Hadoop ecosystem capabilities: What to add next?

    The last 5 years the Hadoop ecosystem has expanded rapidly to satisfy for various production needs. Most recently a number of real-time workloads and tools have been brought to this new generation data processing and management platform.

  • Τrends of different Big Data Solutions

    Various Hadoop-based solutions for a new generation of data management have disrupted the market of traditional data processing and management systems in recent years. There is no longer a question on whether enterprises need a big data strategy - it has become a fact! But the questions remains - when and how to migrate?

  • Software Development Trends for 2014

    2014's lurking around the corner: what technologies will take off and have a major impact, which of the fashions and fads of 2013 will become important trends and game changers in 2014.

  • How do you document your APIs?

    Well documented APIs enhance the experience for developers and have become an essential requirement for defining an API's success. As a result, there are a variety of tools targeted at API producers to automate the process of generating richer documents that reduces costs and time and dramatically improves developer adoption.

  • What Puzzles You Most About Functional Programming?

    With so much diversity, it’s hard to define the exact scope of what exactly functional programming is. Is it a question of how to design your program, that is, using functions as the primary abstraction? Or is it about programming with mathematical functions, meaning pure functions that do not have side effects? And what are those monads again?

  • Testing Tools for .NET Developers

    It often happens that the tools we rely on the most are also the most immature. We tolerate them because they fulfill an essential role. Other tools are really well designed, but aren’t important enough to justify the cost in time and money. And a rare few hit both marks. InfoQ wants to know which tools .NET testing tools you like to use and which you need to use.

  • NoSQL Database Adoption Trends

    In this research survey on NoSQL database adoption trends, InfoQ would like to learn what NoSQL databases you are currently using or planning on using in your applications.

  • API Management Platforms Capabilities

    Every API program needs a set of capabilities to manage the technical and business aspects. The set of capabilities vary for each program based on the criteria for success but with this survey we want to find out which of them are most valued by API providers.

  • Major Software Development Trends for 2013

    With 2012 coming to an end and everybody talking about what lies ahead in 2013, InfoQ has conducted a quick poll amongst its editors about the trends that have a good potential to get significant traction or even dominated the software development community during the next year. These trends include everything from specific programming languages, platforms, development methodologies, and more.

  • Top Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Toolsets

    In the recent past there has been a sudden upsurge in the number of competing ALM offerings from vendors that previously offered a subset of the toolset.With this survey, we would like to measure the ability to execute and the completeness of vision of each of these competing toolsets.

  • Top Quality Standards for Architecture Reviews

    This research is designed to help our readers to be aware of the quality standards when doing architectural reviews. By understanding these standards, they can make better decisions on architecture and design.

  • What is the Next Major Hurdle for Cloud Computing?

    With cloud adopters now seeing some success, what is the next hurdle that will slow cloud adoption? This InfoQ Research item is designed to assist to explore potential hazards in cloud computing adoption that has yet to be recognized due to the fact maturity around cloud adoption is just starting to rise.
