After a brutal year of cybersecurity attacks, IT professionals have become adamant about limiting their exposure to vulnerabilities in third-party software. The question is “How do you do reduce that risk?” That’s where formally adopting a philosophy called DevSecOps comes in.
Serverless applications are growing in popularity among DevOps engineers. They provide a convenient, predictable way to run simple processes like CI/CD builds or automation scripts with no need to stand up infrastructure. They are also commonly used to deploy microservices.
Containers are not inherently secure. Though they have some built-in security features, they require additional tools to ensure protection in development and runtime environments. Container security software and tools automate vulnerability searches and notify developers and IT teams of possible threats in container environments.
Much has been written about struggles of deploying machine learning projects to production. As with many burgeoning fields and disciplines, we don’t yet have a shared canonical infrastructure stack or best practices for developing and deploying data-intensive applications.
VMs can be easy — sometimes too easy — to provision. This makes it essential to have the right management tools to avoid VM sprawl and ensure that each instance meets organizational requirements. VMware’s increased integration of Kubernetes within its offerings aims to make this work easier through Tanzu-based features.
Every day, nearly 4000 apps are added to the Google Play Market. The creation of each of them costs money, creativity, and efforts, so on the wave of such a strong demand for their solutions of all kinds, the businesses are logically looking for opportunities to cut the development costs without sacrificing the results.
[Editor’s note: This curated guide, originally published last year, was updated October 2021 to include our most recent software development content.] Everyone in business today “ feels the need for speed ”. But probably none more so than application developers, who have found themselves dragged out from behind their cubicle walls and thrust into the spotlight of digital transformation.
When it comes to software development using Google Cloud, we have three guiding principles. First, developing on Google Cloud needs to be open—we rely heavily on open-source technologies so that it’s easier to move apps between environments, recruit skilled developers, and access the latest innovations sooner.
DevOps has been with us now for several years. Above all, it should be regarded as an operating philosophy. It requires people who are familiar with the DevOps mindset and are skilled at implementing the practices that make DevOps successful in a company.
If cloud-native technologies and containers are on your radar, you’ve likely encountered Docker and Kubernetes and might be wondering how they relate to each other. In a nutshell, they are complementary and, in part, overlapping technologies to create, manage, and operate containers.
Today, I am happy to announce the availability of AWS Cloud Control API a set of common application programming interfaces (APIs) that are designed to make it easy for developers to manage their AWS and third-party services. AWS delivers the broadest and deepest portfolio of cloud services.
In today’s highly competitive technical landscape, testing and development must be performed rapidly yet securely to meet growing consumer demands. When moving software from one computing environment to another, be it from a physical machine in a data center to a virtual machine (VM) in a cloud environment, a staging environment into production or a developer’s laptop to a test environment, the software must run reliably.
There are several best practices to develop secure web applications in 2021. Web security should be included throughout the design, development and coding phases. Application security during development is vital to safeguard financial and personal data against potential threats.
In today’s fast-paced world of software development, there is a significant rise in software testing applications in the market. With the ease of availability, high scalability, and affordable cost price, cloud testing apps provide the flexibility of testing on multiple machines and environments without having to build your own infrastructure.
