Modern programs run on APIs. In digital transformation efforts, APIs are often the building blocks used to push organizations into the current digital age. For business-critical transactions, most applications, therefore, rely on APIs. Without truly understanding what’s going on behind the scenes with each API endpoint, organizations create blind spots in their performance. Let us see more about API and how important it is to monitor the API, and how we can easily monitor the API endpoint.

Virtualization technology provider VMware acquired CloudHealth in August 2018. VMware hoped the new addition would enable more organizations to manage services on other cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and their private data centers. So, what does CloudHealth do and how much does it cost? Is it a good all-in-one platform for cloud management? This guide explores CloudHealth pricing, features, and possible alternatives to help you decide if the solution is right for you (or if there is a better option).

A few episodes ago, we talked with fellow podcaster and tech evangelist Dotan Horovits. During that episode, Dotan shared that he wrote a blog post with Jujhar Singh called “How Much Observability Is Enough?” which is definitely a recommended read if you’re implementing observability and feeling overwhelmed. After reading this article, we were eager to invite Jujhar to the StackPod as well, to dive into this topic a bit more.

Google has introduced so many innovations that it’d be impossible to list them all. And we’re not just talking about the obvious things like search engine algorithms or nearly-ubiquitous programs and apps (Google Maps, Docs, Gmail) — not even self-driving cars. Today, we’re going to talk about one such innovation: Site Reliability Engineering. In a nutshell, SRE it’s a practical framework for software development that improves on even giants like DevOps. Wait, what?

Albane here, Product Marketing Manager at Qovery 👋 Yesterday we joined forced Pierre Olive (CTO and co-founder of Spayr) to talk about how they manage multiple environments on Kubernetes with Qovery and much more; if you missed it or would just rather read than listen, here is the recap.

One difficult challenge in the software development cycle is increasing the speed of development while ensuring the quality of the code remains the same. The data world has adopted software development practices in recent years to test data changes before deployment. The testing process can be time-consuming and prone to unexpected errors.

Containers and microservices have revolutionized the way applications are deployed on the cloud. Since its launch in 2014, Kubernetes has become a de-facto standard as a container orchestration tool. In this tutorial, you will learn how to deploy a Node.js application on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) with continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD).
