Software of all kinds requires information to do its work. At the back end of most programs you’ll usually find some form of database, which has been created or selected and configured to run specifically with that application. In creating that database or making a selection from the wide range of products available, there are several factors to consider. We’ll be looking at these criteria, in this article.
We’ve been working on integrating call tracing in the server to provide exact measurements of all API and DB calls. We’ve picked OpenTracing—a lovely open source project that allows you to set up trace reporting and enables you to support Distributed tracing.
Rapid software release is the new norm – and that has pushed many companies to ditch their monolithic software development approach in favor of SOA.

Fantasy or nightmare.
In the holiday spirit, we’re bringing a little cheer to the Golang community by celebrating the achievements of some noteworthy Go module authors. We’re excited to launch a new program within JFrog GoCenter that honors select “Top Gophers.” Using key metrics of success such as number of downloads and imports, quality metrics, and usage in GoCenter, we aim to highlight projects that we think are really helping improve software development for the Go developer community.
Apache Tomcat, developed by the Apache Software Foundation, is an open source Java servlet container that also functions as a web server. While over 10,000 websites rely on Tomcat as a web server, a Plumbr of Java application servers showed that over 60% of websites that use Java technology relied on Apache Tomcat to host the business logic. Production environments must be high performing.
The hype has gone off the charts for AI and machine learning tools' potential in IT organizations. It’s time to temper expectations and move towards a sensible adoption path. Artificial intelligence is not fairy dust sprinkled on a data center, despite the enthusiastic proclamations of many IT operations vendors today.
