Why DevSecOps Is Good Business

Back in 2002 when I was a (very) junior programmer at a German enterprise software company I was lucky enough to be part of a small team that was building what you would now call a SaaS app. Up until now, the company had made all their profits by selling desktop software written in a language most people likely have never heard of: FoxPro.

Using React Select with Redux Form

At FireHydrant we use Redux Form for all of our forms. It is extremely easy to build complex form logic with all sorts of added bonuses that make using it in our React/Redux front end a no brainer.

On-Prem or Cloud? A Decision in Light of Security and Compliance

When an organization is ready to deploy a new solution, or build a new system, there is often a continuing discussion about the relative merits of using the cloud versus deploying on-premises. While there are a number of aspects that play into this decision, it is not always clear which is the better solution for security and compliance. Typically, deployment issues are not clear because security and compliance solutions quickly change when you are using shared vs. dedicated environments.

Riding the Wave

We are excited to be recognized as a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Intelligent Application and Service Monitoring, Q2 2019. It covers vendors from infrastructure and cloud monitoring, application performance monitoring (APM) and AIOps. Rather than publishing a separate Wave for each of these vendor categories, we believe that this report creates a combined market category based on how solutions solve customer problems rather than on how technology vendors create market spaces.
