Let's all face it, on call work isn't fun. But it can be better. Even if you have to work on call, it would be nice to have at least some of the work done for you, before you drag yourself out of bed at 3am to respond to an incident.
Microservices are the future of software development. This approach serves as a server-side solution to development where services remain connected but work independently from each other. More developers are using microservices to improve performance, precision, and productivity, and analytical tools provide them with valuable insights about performance and service levels.
When we launched Qovery in January 2020, our product was still a prototype, and we onboarded 53 developers to help them deploy their apps in the cloud. At the time, we were only 2 on the team, and our first employee (Patryk Jeziorowski) decided to join us after being one of our first users. 18 months later, 3004 developers from more than 110 countries use Qovery to deploy their apps on their AWS and Digital Ocean account.
Testing in production simply means testing new code changes in production, with live traffic, in order to test the system’s reliability, resiliency, and stability. It helps teams solve bugs and other issues faster, as well as effectively analyze the performance of newly released changes. Its overall purpose is to expose problems that can’t be identified in non-production environments for reasons that may include not being able to mimic the concurrency, load, or user behavior.
PHP has been one of the top (if not best) server-side scripting languages in the world for decades. However, let’s be honest – error logging in PHP is not the most straightforward or intuitive. It involves tweaking a few configuration options plus some playing around to get used to.
Debugging is one of the most critical aspects of software development cycles. Developers not only leverage it to find and fix errors, but also to uncover potential performance issues in the code. Being able to debug is a core skill every developer needs to have in order to provide valuable, scalable solutions.
Digital transformation is a strategic initiative of the federal government and has been for years, but adequate funding has never been appropriated. Digital transformation is essential within all areas of government, to deliver services faster, more reliably, and securely. In order to keep up with the global expansion of digitalization, government agencies must modernize their IT and security infrastructure.
