Redis is an in-memory data store. It’s predominantly a key/value store, so it does not have features in many relational databases. It can be used as a simple database, a cache, or as a pub/sub system. Since it’s all in-memory, it is very fast, but it also requires alot of memory. Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform all provide their own managed Redis services. The available versions and features vary from provider to provider. Let’s take a closer look.

Rancher is a single point of control to manage all your kubernetes clusters anywhere. Rancher 2.3.x was released a few weeks back and it came with huge updates.

Last year, we introduced Watchdog to help Datadog APM users detect performance problems in their services by applying machine learning algorithms to automatically surface anomalies. Today, we’re excited to announce Watchdog for Infra, which expands the scope of Watchdog to automatically provide ongoing visibility into the health and performance of your infrastructure with no setup required.

Web server logs and other access logs from technologies such as NGINX, Apache, and AWS Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) provide a wealth of key performance indicators (KPIs) for monitoring the health and performance of your application and understanding your users’ experience. These logs tell you how long pages take to load, where errors are occurring, which parts of your application are requested the most, and much more.

Serverless is a quickly-maturing technology and, if you’ve followed its evolution over the past several years, you’ve likely seen a host of great (and not-so-great) documentation of its technology and practices. Now that serverless is a much more mainstream topic for reputable outfits to report on, it’s become easier to comb through serverless fact and fiction in the media.

Golang developers care a lot about security and as Go modules become more widely used, they need more ways to assure these publicly shared files are safe. One unique feature included with Golang version 1.13 is the foresight that went into authentication and security for Go modules. When a developer creates a new module or a new version of an existing module, a go.sum file included there creates a list of SHA-256 hashes that are unique to that module version.

The popularity of serverless infrastructure, like AWS Lambda, is on the rise, which is easy to understand, given its promise of a cheaper price tag and less maintenance. However, as companies are lifting and shifting apps into lambda, many are discovering that it’s not that simple. Like any shift, such as moving from on-prem to the cloud, the reality is, applications need to be designed a certain way in order for you to reap the cost and efficiency benefits.

This blog focuses on implementing the Dependency Injection design pattern to the Azure Functions. For a better understanding of Dependency Injection and Azure Function, Let’s take a simple Cab booking validation scenario, in which there will be a Function app implemented with the Dependency Injection that validates the user email Id that is valid or not. Before diving into the orchestration, let us know what the Dependency Injection is.
