When developing new features of a complex, distributed, massively scalable software system, it is easy to accidentally degrade its performance, even despite being very careful. Regular code reviews, static code analysis, quality, and performance testing are not enough. In this post, we show how Hunter can be used to analyze thousands of performance metrics regularly and reliably flags performance changes.

In this post, let’s discuss how to detect whether your application’s memory is under-allocated or not in a proactive manner. Studying the garbage collection behavior of the application will clearly indicate whether your application’s memory is under-allocated or over-allocated than the actual requirement.

Java runtimes currently operate with a pre-cloud mindset that does not leverage or take advantage of modern cloud environments. Java Virtual Machines (JVMs) can be modernized with new approaches that assume the presence of a “magic cloud.” Cloud-native compilation is a key example of this new approach, with production-ready implementations already producing highly efficient and affordable code optimization.

Four years ago, we launched a diversity series aimed at bringing the most inspirational and powerful women in the tech scene to your attention. Today, we’d like you to meet Arti Lalwani, Risk Management and Privacy Knowledge Leader at A-LIGN.

The opportunities — and requirements — are clear. To deliver the experience customers and users want today, every app has to be envisioned and architected as a data app. A data application effectively leverages data and provides an integrated, actionable analytics experience that augments its core purpose.

The Chess.com application is quite the workhorse; it has over 65 million members and more than 250,000 concurrent users playing more than 10 million games online. But how do you prevent delays between turns that interrupt the game’s flow? Azul Platform Prime has the answer.

Erez Berkner, the co-founder and CEO of Lumigo, spoke with JAXenter about the cloud observability space, elaborating on what it’s trying to solve and how it’s different from monitoring. He explains in detail how Lumigo helps make sense of the ever-growing complexity of cloud-native applications and allows developers to find the root cause of an issue in highly-distributed systems. Erez explains Lumigo’s decision to expand to Kubernetes and hybrid apps and reveals the company’s plans for further down the road.

When building custom software, businesses are faced with the major decision of either hiring a developer who will work in-house or outsourcing the work to a software development firm with a full cadre of designers and programmers. Both options have their pros and cons, but it’s important to make the right decision.

We asked Tenry Fu and Dave Cope some questions about Kubernetes environments, recent research, and why Kubernetes needs to be more approachable for businesses. They also discuss Spectro Cloud and the newest Version 2.0 release of Palette, an enterprise Kubernetes management platform.

The truth is that every business is now a software developer – whether a retailer, bank, transportation, insurer – they are all operating as software companies. If attackers are setting their sights on software as a promising venue for their exploits, then organizations have to close this security gap.

What exactly does no-code and low-code mean? Why is it receiving so much attention right now? How will it develop in the future? Angela Castillo answered our questions about these techniques, what they hold for the future, how they are currently being used, and more.
