DevOps poses a unique challenge and opportunity for IT governance. Traditionally we have governed IT in terms of projects. DevOps offers us a very different manner of execution. It is flow based, with new requirements being pulled into a pipeline, worked on, and deployed quickly to users ...

A survey of more than 750 development team leaders in the US and UK, revealed that 68 percent plan to build more apps during the next 12 months. At the same time as reporting increased volumes of development, 91 percent of developers surveyed agree that user expectations for innovation and quality have increased, but app deliveries continue to fail ...
Designing and deploying complete software-defined data centers (SDDCs) can be complicated because each implementation requires a broad range of infrastructure to support heavy demands for compute, networking, storage, applications and security ...
According to LogiGear's State of Software Testing Survey, almost one-third of the respondents are experiencing classic test automation issues. One problem commonly cited among respondents was that management didn’t fully understand what it takes to have a successful automation program ...
Load balancing at the DNS (Domain Name System) level has been around for a few decades now, but it didn't become crucial until recently as technology is moving to the cloud. DNS is the perfect solution for managing cloud systems ...
API use is exploding among developers, as APIs are an essential part of software development for the web, IoT, mobile and AI applications. APIs allow a developer to create programs or apps that can successfully request services or data from other applications or operating system. This connectivity, though powerful, is complex, and that complexity grows with new apps, new hardware such as the new iPhone and Echo, and the creation of new APIs ...
Code working perfectly doesn't matter much if apps aren't reaching customers, or are negatively impacted by network latency or outages. All the customer cares about is how they are enjoying an app. To effectively guarantee application availability and usage satisfaction, DevOps teams need to leverage three important application assurance data sets into their delivery automation logic ...
There are many options when it comes to container orchestration platforms and services. Figuring out which one is best for a particular organization’s needs and applications can be a challenge. Which platform for containerization you choose can significantly influence your business success, so the selection process should be carefully considered ...
A powerful tool for simplifying DevOps is containerization, which delivers a convenient form of application packaging, combined with the opportunity to automate certain IT provisioning processes. With containerization, DevOps teams can focus on their priorities — the Ops team preparing containers with all needed dependencies and configurations; and the Dev team focusing on efficient coding of an application that can be easily deployed ...
Web development and web design are intertwined in such a way that there is not one without the other — not anymore at least. The following outlines 5 benefits of collaboration ...
Application Program Interfaces (API’s) represent an effective way to build and manage mobile services. By using APIs — a set of routines, protocols and tools for building software applications — application developers no longer have to buy technology software or hardware. Instead, they can simply plug into a growing open ecosystem of API-driven services. It is simple to integrate, and saves time and money for new developers ...
