Containers are superior to Virtual Machines (VM) in many aspects, including the benefits of being lightweight, easily scalable, highly portable, etc. AWS provides two primary container services i.e., Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). Although both ECS and EKS are growing in popularity but achieving security while using these services is relatively a new topic.

In today’s enterprise, technology is quickly extending beyond its birthplace in IT. Solutions that found traction with IT technologists are now helping connect everyone and everything at a company. At ServiceNow, it starts with our customers. Customers have been using ServiceNow® IT Workflows products in traditionally non-technology functions. Where these shifts became thematic, we listened and evolved our capabilities to serve those teams.

Your applications most likely consist of multiple components. These components could be written in different languages, with each individually instrumented with Sentry’s SDK. The goal of our tracing solution is to make sure developers get a full picture of the data captured within their tech stack. Tracing allows you to follow a request from the frontend all the way to your backend application and back.

Monitoring business-critical applications is just as vital as deploying them since their performance directly impacts your ability to meet business goals. When it comes to the banking industry, ensuring superior application performance of applications is crucial to enabling smooth banking operations. But it’s also complex since banks deploy interconnected applications across on-premise and cloud.

A NoSQL database provides a mechanism for data storage and retrieval, without using the tabular relations associated with relational databases. Originally referred to as "non-SQL" or "non-relational" databases, NoSQL databases are increasingly used in big data and real-time web application environments. NoSQL systems are also sometimes called “Not only SQL” to emphasize that they may support SQL-like query languages or sit alongside SQL databases in polyglot-persistent architectures.

Debugging JavaScript is an inevitable part of web development, and not the nicest one. Debugging jobs always seem to pop up when you’re already buried under piles of work, and a teammate pings you about an issue that was overlooked in testing and has been causing frustrations since your last release. That’s why it helps to be prepared for that eventuality, and equipped with the developer tools to help you debug faster.

I was intrigued by two recent IoT related survey and reports. They emphasize use cases about efficiencies and return on investments but, surprisingly, there is no mention of people-safety nor productivity. I think it is imperative to place people at the heart of the IoT universe. Today, people related use cases have been greatly understated. We will be doing a great injustice if we continue to ignore the human angle.
