How to use Buildpacks as part of a Platform Engineering strategy

While platform engineering is not a new concept, it has been rapidly gaining popularity. It is estimated that by 2026, 80% of major software engineering organizations are expected to form platform engineering teams. One of the reasons why platform engineering is getting so much attention is that it helps to automate deployment while allowing developers to remain in a productive state and avoid high cognitive loads.

The Expensive Cost of 'Free' Kubernetes

In recent years, Kubernetes has emerged as the go-to solution for container orchestration, offering flexibility and scalability for deploying and managing applications. However, organizations quickly realize that the allure of its open-source nature can be deceiving—while free to download, the costs of managing Kubernetes can stack up rapidly. Initially embraced for its agility, Kubernetes soon reveals its complexity.

What Is S3 Intelligent-Tiering? Here's What You Need To Know

Here’s the thing. You frequently access some files, but not others. So, if you can determine the most appropriate storage tier for any given data/object automatically, you can transform it accordingly. That means you can save both time and money by not manually deciding which files to move to their best storage class. To help optimize things, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced a new storage class called S3 Intelligent-Tiering Storage.

Maximizing Uptime: Four Essential System Monitoring Best Practices

System uptime is a fundamental necessity for every organization that gives importance to the customer experience and satisfaction. A single minute of downtime can trigger a cascade of negative consequences, impacting everything from revenue streams to customer loyalty. So, why exactly is system uptime important? Downtime translates to lost revenue, frustrated users, and operational disruption.

Building the Intelligent Middle Mile

During a recent webinar, Ribbon's Jonathan Homa, Senior Director, Solutions Marketing, and David Stokes, Head of IP Portfolio Marketing, discussed the pivotal role the middle mile network plays for Service Providers in taking advantage of the hugely increased access capacity recent investments in fiber and 5G offer. Service Providers require efficient, cost-effective solutions for this critical link in network connectivity.

How reliability differs between monolithic and microservice-based architectures

Microservices have forever changed the way we build applications. Tools like Docker and Kubernetes made microservice-based architectures widely accessible to software developers, and cloud platforms like Amazon EKS made deploying containers fast and inexpensive. They've also enabled even small engineering teams to deploy code faster, leverage fault tolerance and redundancy, scale more efficiently, and take full ownership of their services from development all the way into production.
