SOA vs. Microservices Architecture – The Much-Hyped Debate!

Introduction

The debate of “which is the right kind of software architecture?” has always been in the air. As a consequence, we do harbor doubts when it comes to picking sides or making decisions.

This blog is going to brush up on the basics surrounding SOA and Microservices Architecture.
Before we begin discussing the similarities and differences between SOA and Microservices Architecture, let us first understand – Continue reading “SOA vs. Microservices Architecture – The Much-Hyped Debate!”

DevSecOps Best Practices for Secured & Fast Delivery

DevSecOps is the integration of security into the DevOps lifecycle and its practices.

According to Gartner, over 70% of enterprise DevSecOps initiatives adopted automated vulnerability and configuration scanning by 2023, a massive jump from less than 30% in 2019. This highlights the growing importance of DevSecOps in building secure, scalable, and resilient systems.

This statement emphasizes a few critical security DevOps practices for ensuring secure and bug-free product delivery. Let’s take a closer look at some of the relevant approaches for embedding security checks in the DevOps lifecycle. Continue reading “DevSecOps Best Practices for Secured & Fast Delivery”

What is Kubernetes API?

Before discussing any further on Kubernetes API, let’s first understand what Kubernetes is. To put it simply, Kubernetes is a portable, open-source platform for the orchestration of containers. A container is an encapsulated bundle of software code and its related configuration files, libraries, and other related data packed into a small packet, capable of running independently in any infrastructure.

If we look into the State of Enterprise Report 2021, 85% agree that Kubernetes is the key to cloud-native application strategies.

While Kubernetes adoption is growing at a rapid pace, deploying it is a major challenge that enterprises have to face today. Know more about Kubernetes deployment challenges and the best practices to overcome these here, in this eBook!The Ultimate Guide to Kubernetes Deployment!

The What, Why, and How of Application Containerization!

The container management market has shown rapid growth in recent years. The projected revenue growth is around $944 million ( ~ $1 billion) by 2024, from $465.8 million in 2020,says Statista.

Let’s get started with what “Containerization is,” followed by “Application Containerization.”

What is Containerization?

To put it simply, consider it as an alternative or a companion of “Virtualization.” We can define “Containerization” as the encapsulation or packaging of a software code and all its dependencies to make it run independently on any infrastructure. These units are called containers, wherein they share the machine’s operating system kernel, not requiring the overhead of associating an operating system within each application.

Challenges of Hybrid Cloud Computing

The value of the global cloud market was at $52 billion in the year 2020 and is expected to reach approximately $145 billion in 2026, says Statista. If this enormous evaluation has piqued your interest, then let’s dive deep into the discussion of hybrid cloud management.

What is Hybrid Cloud?

To understand more about hybrid cloud architecture, let’s start with the basics.

Hybrid Cloud is an architectural style connecting public and private clouds, enabling orchestration, management, and application portability between them for creating a flexible optimal cloud environment for running enterprises’ compute workloads.
