Falco On Track To Version 1.0.0

  Falco is a cloud native runtime security tool for the Linux operating system, designed to detect abnormal behavior and warn of potential security threats in real-time. Now it's about to release its first stable version. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/141-cloud-computing/17087-falco-on-track-to-version-100.html

Spin Brings WebAssembly To The Cloud

  Spin is a new open source framework for building and running cloud microservices with WebAssembly which run on the Fermyon Cloud. Fermyon has also released an SDK for . NET. First, WebAssembly was touted as a runtime that would be embedded into every major web browser in order to write code in any language that could be compiled to its bytecode format. Because of that, the popular browsers would be able to execute not just JavaScript but also compiled binaries, hence the second property that was attached to it;the Javascript killer. . full article on i-programmer: https://www.i-programmer.info/news/87-web-development/16023-spin-brings-webassembly-to-the-cloud.html

Jakarta EE 10 - A New Era For Java On The Cloud

 After a lot of iterations and false starts in terms of dates, Jakarta EE 10 is finally here and primarily focused on the Cloud and microservices. Jakarta EE finds itself mostly used in an Enterprise setting. That property is embodied in its name after all - EE for Enterprise Edition. Born in 2017 out of Java EE when Oracle contributed it to the Eclipse Foundation, it was subsequently relaunched as Jakarta EE as well as open-sourced. What it essentially represents, is Java's ability of modernizing, but at the same time keeping ties with the past - a quality highly sought after by those enterprise environments. At its core Jakarta EE is a both a framework and a collection of APIs mainly for developing Web services as well as enabling interoperability between distributed systems. Its versatility lies in that, while you can use it in building microservices, you can also use it in developing monoliths. In fact, Jakarta EE underpins many such infrastructure technologies: full article on...

Kalix-NoOps High-performance Microservices and APIs

  What Kalix Platform-as-a-Service promises is massive - a way to write cloud applications based on Kubernetes under a unified API abstracting the lower layers away. We know that Kubernetes is magic, but at the same time hard - hard to setup, hard to configure, hard to operate, hard to write applications on, and this difficulty is a reason of why many are reluctant to let go of their monolith for the microservices world: “Complexity in the cloud ecosystem is slowing down engineering and development teams,” said Jonas Bonér, Lightbend’s founder and CEO. “Kubernetes does an excellent job managing, orchestrating, and ensuring availability and scalability of containers, but that’s only half the story. ”There needs to be an equal investment in the application layer to make it easier for the developer to build complete applications that take full advantage of all the excellent underlying cloud infrastructure we have at our disposal. Kalix is the solution to this critical issue.” Und...

Integrate Azure and Spring with Spring Cloud Azure

 Spring Cloud Azure is an open-source project that provides seamless Spring integration with Azure services.It has now reached version 4.0. Not to be confused with Azure Spring Cloud. which is a fully managed Spring Cloud service on Azure,Spring Cloud Azure is just an SDK that offers a convenient way to interact with Azure-provided services using well-known Spring idioms and APIs for Spring developers. Spring Cloud Azure is a slightly vague term, but in essence it collectively brings together under one umbrella the following components: full article on i-programmer: https://www.i-programmer.info/news/141-cloud-computing/15414-integrate-azure-and-spring-with-spring-cloud-azure.html

Learn Kubernetes by Example

  Looking to understand Kubernetes and cloud native development? Here is a free and continuously updated online collection of resources on everything Kubernetes, by RedHat. Kubernetes as the forefront of Cloud native development is all the rage right now. I outlined its importance in my preview of Udacity's newest Nanodegree,  Udacity Cloud Native Application Architecture Nanodegree  and  in  my write-up , I describe that the Kubernetes (the Greek work for Captain) ecosystem is comprised of a number of elements: full article on i-programmer.info

The Cloud Native Application Architecture Nanodegree - Foundations

 I n cooperation with SUSE, Udacity is launching a new highly practical, project-oriented Nanodegree to learn how to design and deploy microservices by leveraging cloud native tools and patterns. The  Cloud Native Application Architecture  Nanodegree aims to: Meet the growing demand for cloud native architects and learn to identify the best application architecture solutions for an organization’s needs. The program, which is at intermediate level, will take four months with 10 hours per week effort and has as its pre-requisites some familiarity with HTTP, Python, Git, Linux, Docker. While this program is now up and running, with a session starting on June 16 and thereafter at regular intervals, Udacity invited students who wanted an introduction to Cloud Native Applications to participate in a 2-month Cloud Native Application Foundations course. This forms part of Scholarship Challenge Phase paving the way to one of 300 full scholarships to the complete Nanodegree. f...

Python & Webassembly Plus Science Equals Pyodide

Based on Iodide, we now have Pyodide which allows a Python interpreter to run inside the browser and create living documents there, thus bringing data science to the browser. As we've seen in " Run VSCode in the browser ", portability is the new trend sought after. And with that we mean the ease of running everything inside the ubiquitous browser, be it an IDE, a game or an interpreter.  Pyodide is the Python offspring of Iodide, the attempt to bring Javascript and science to the browser. Iodide was already a success, but since Javascript had no well-defined scientific stack whereas Python does, the idea of replacing JavaScript with Python was suggested. And thus, Pyodide. full article on i-programmer
