Data becomes a foundation for action — and a source of differentiation. But how do you store the relentless influx of data — especially since data storage costs, amplified by the risk of data loss, are among the top hurdles facing organizations today?
In the previous blog in this series, we discussed the principle of least privilege, and the importance of assigning bare minimum privileges to users and systems at database or server levels. However, there are certain built-in principals in your database that possess all permissions in SQL Server. If an attacker managed to get hold of one of these principals, the database could be easily exploited and damaged.
Browser (or UI) tests are a key part of end-to-end (E2E) testing. They are critical for monitoring key application workflows—such as creating a new account or adding items to a cart—and ensuring that customers using your application don’t run into broken functionalities. But browser tests can be difficult to create and maintain. They take time to implement, and configurations for executing tests become more complex as your infrastructure grows.
Virtual machines (VMs) are one of the on-demand, scalable computing resources that Microsoft Azure offers. They enable streamlined allocation of resources in backup, disaster recovery, and deployment environments. A VM is typically chosen when you need more control over your computing environment. However, Azure VMs come with the challenge of simultaneously monitoring them across multiple environments when the VMs are spread unevenly, with some being overutilized and others underutilized.
The Twelve-Factor App methodology is a methodology for building platform-agnostic and resilient applications. It was introduced by Adam Wiggins while working at Heroku in 2011. Nearly 10 years later, this methodology is still considered by the developer community as an excellent practice to follow when building an application. In this article, we will see step by step how Qovery respects and improves the 12-factor methodology. Here we go.
