The panelists discuss main differences in how one should design and build services when embracing the Edge as part of the system architecture.
Besides the eight projects that graduated, also the fourteen projects reaching incubation status were announced at KubeConEU + CloudNative Conference CNCF. This status change confirms their direction and encourages contributors and adopters to consider them. Among others, ArgoCD, OpenTelemetry and gRPC reached incubating status.
Google Cloud recently announced AlloyDB for PostgreSQL, a managed PostgreSQL-compatible service targeting enterprise deployments. AlloyDB is a full-featured cloud database supporting atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability (ACID)-compliant transactions.
In this article, author Nikita Povarov discusses the role AI/ML plays in software development and how tasks like code completion, code search, and bug detection can be powered by machine learning. But he also explains why a complete replacement of programmers by algorithms isn't going happen any time soon.
As part of the keynotes on the last day of KubeConEU + CloudNative Conference, CNCF had announced the projects that graduated to higher levels of maturity making their usage recommended and support necessary. Among the newly graduating projects count already known names like Prometheus, Jaeger or Envoy. While ArgoCD, OpenTelemetry or gRPC reached incubating status.
In the pursuit of agile at scale, the landscape is dominated by process-driven approaches which are broken. This article explores a solution-driven rollout approach, one that puts authentic agreement on outcomes before solutions. The principles on which it is based are effective also as leadership strategies, where frameworks are resources to draw on as people find fitting solutions.
Recently AWS announced that Node.js version 16 supports its Function as a Service (FaaS) and is in active LTS status (ready for general use).
With many open-source and paid tools available to do the job, it can be relatively straightforward to make sure that your systems are monitored properly. But, how does a team make sure that these systems are working as described, and alert the team effectively that there’s a problem with the system that is supposed to be keeping an eye on things?
Meta AI recently announced that it will soon release an entirely new data set for green hydrogen fuel ML modeling and simulation, focused on oxide catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), a critical chemical reaction used in green hydrogen fuel production via wind and solar energy.
Gato, as the agent is known, is DeepMinds’s generalist AI that can perform many different tasks that humans can do, without carving a niche for itself as an expert on one task. Gato can perform more than 600 different tasks, such as playing video games, captioning images and moving real-world robotic arms. Gato is a multi-modal, multi-task, multi-embodiment generalist policy.
Financial institutions are famous for their conservative approach in multiple areas, technology being no exception. Many of them are still running mainframe solutions built a long time ago. But together with times, the banks are changing too: at KubeConEU mBank, a polish bank showed how it managed to marry Cloud Native and Cloud Agnotisc principles to also satisfy the EU regulation in the field.
Spring Boot 3 & Spring Framework 6, due in late 2022, will have built-in support for native Java. For Spring Framework 5.x & Spring Boot 2.x, Spring Native is the way to go. Spring Native provides integrations for Spring's vast ecosystem of libraries. It also has a component model that allows you to extend native compilation support for other libraries.
Braintree engineer Anthony Ross explained in a recent article how introducing some random jitter into retry intervals for failed tasks solved a thundering herd issue which was impacting the efficiency of their payment dispute management API.
To optimise for fast flow, the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration has adopted a teams-first approach. High-performing teams need autonomy, and they also require direction and alignment. Solutions should be adopted by the teams within their context, abilities, and cognitive capacity.
Cloud applications promise high availability and accessibility to its users, but for that to be achieved a disaster recovery plan is essential. The team behind InfluxDB shared at KubeConEU22 their lessons learned from battle testing their disaster recovery strategy on the day when they deleted the production.
