Cloud computing has revolutionized the tech world in the past few decades, and we have seen exponential growth in this technology in a short period. In fact, we can attribute cloud computing to being the savior of many businesses and employees worldwide during the Covid-19 pandemic since people no longer needed to get out of their house to earn a… Continue reading5 Most Innovative Cloud Computing Technologies To Date
If your API isn’t scalable and convenient to use, it means you’re missing out on a few tricks. Employing the latest and best AP practices is vital because it avoids API syntax messes. Of course, a smooth API design isn’t easy and requires a critical trial and error procedure. However, with technological advancements and extensive research comes beneficial discoveries. Today,… Continue readingBest Practices In API Design
When you are designing, creating, implementing, and consuming your APIs, you often come across the term ‘contracts.’ API contracts are basically a document that contains information about the workings of an API. Furthermore, it is also a promise or agreement that API developers put out to guarantee that the product functions in the way they have stated it does. Whenever… Continue readingImportance of API Contracts
The Microservices architecture is one where there are several benefits to be gained from the overall scope to the entirety of its existence. However, there are faults in the architecture that must be dealt with periodically to ensure that everything goes smoothly. There are many instances when faults develop in the Microservices architecture and it is then left to the… Continue readingHow to Isolate Fault in Microservices with Swim Lanes
There are a number of ways through which a business can ensure that its microservices architecture is efficiently integrated with resilience and that when a single component gets subjected to failure, it does not cause the entire microservices chain to collapse. When it comes to a monolithic application, the whole application can potentially be brought down with only a small… Continue readingHow to Design Resilience Into Microservices Architecture
Microservice-based systems are gaining popularity in the industry. It is not strange given the potential of short development times, continuous deployment cycles, and a scalable, impactful component model for software systems. However, there is a downside. Things can quickly spiral out of control. How do you maintain control as the number of microservices, messages, and interconnections between them grow? How… Continue readingHow to Keep Complexity Out Of Microservices
The answer is very simple: Loosely coupled systems should include services that are independent of each other. That is, anyway, the gold standard. However, it is not easy to achieve loosely coupled systems. The concept is far from new, and adaptations of loosely coupled systems are currently well underway. But the implementation could take some time, especially on a wide-scale… Continue readingHow Loose Should Loosely Coupled Be
IT systems are a key part of any business, large or small. From workstations and laptops to network equipment, custom software, IP solutions, business applications, databases, operating systems, and more are all important tech systems within a company. Given enough time, every IT system eventually becomes a legacy IT system. Generally, you can refer to an IT system as “legacy… Continue readingCan Legacy IT Cause a Company To Lose Competitiveness?
The Zero-Trust model is becoming increasingly popular in the world now with the looming threat of advanced cyber-attacks that traditional means of security are unable to contain entirely. Undoubtedly, the implementation of Zero-Trust is not quite widespread because the model is, ultimately, too extreme. Other than that, the model is not quite easy to implement either because of how rigid… Continue readingHow To Implement Zero Trust Architecture ZTA
Decentralization, blockchain, and cryptocurrency have all gained a lot of traction in the past decade. Even though these terms mostly go hand in hand, they are very different from each other. All decentralized systems do not include blockchain, and not all cryptocurrency is blockchain. An example of such a system is Hedera, which aims to improve the current blockchain and… Continue readingHow Does Hashgraph Work?
