Agile and Waterfall are two popular project management methodologies. Agile suits projects that require flexibility and frequent updates, while Waterfall is ideal for projects with clear, unchanging requirements. Let’s explore further the differences between these 2 approaches!

Whether you’re working in the marketing department or the operations department, you’ve probably heard a lot about APIs and API integrations. API integration is the process of connecting different software systems or applications through their respective APIs to enable them to communicate and share data seamlessly. These have become the “buzz” terms of IT departments in recent years as more enterprises embrace the trend toward digital transformation.

Storing information in a relational database and sharing it via a RESTful API is a very common scenario these days. Depending on your RDBMS (relational database management system), this may take a lot of development effort. One solution that attempts to simplify the process is the PostgREST web server add-on for PostgreSQL. If your organization uses the PostgreSQL database, PostgREST quickly adds basic CRUD (create, read, update, delete) functions in an easy-to-use RESTful HTTP interface.

As the mobile app market continues to expand, the demand for robust and efficient testing solutions has never been greater. Traditional testing methods are proving inadequate in addressing the complexities and speed requirements of modern mobile applications. This blog explores how cloud mobile testing is transforming quality assurance (QA) in the mobile era, offering scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions that meet the demands of today’s fast-paced development environments.

Check out Ken Ahrens and Scott Moore as they discuss some blockers of developer productivity when building in Kubernetes, and how removing environment and data challenges can reduce toil and frustration! You can catch the full podcast on Scott’s page here: Scott Moore: Hey everybody out there in internet meme land. It’s time to hide your kids and hide your wife because it’s time for the SMC Journal podcast. Some of you will get that joke. Others will not.

Your organization is likely sitting atop vast quantities of diverse data. However, all that data must undergo certain processes before you can fully leverage it. Data discovery is among those processes. Let’s learn more about it.

Workflows determine how organizations conduct processes. These workflows can initially be very straightforward—just a simple series of steps that must be completed sequentially to achieve a particular outcome. However, the steps can become more complicated as business processes and requirements become more extensive. Your organization needs to keep these workflows running smoothly even as they become more complicated.

Smooth and effective data migration helps organizations move data across systems efficiently to maintain their competitive advantage. Still, Gartner reports that only 17% of initiatives involving data migration are completed within their budgets or set timelines. Understanding these data migration challenges is the first step toward overcoming them. In this blog, we’ll explore data migration and its different types, challenges, and strategies for dealing with them.

The Testing Pyramid is a framework in software development that helps organize and manage different types of tests. Its purpose is to ensure efficient and effective testing by structuring tests into a hierarchical model. At its core, the Testing Pyramid emphasizes the importance of having more low-level tests that are quick to execute and fewer high-level tests that are more complex and time-consuming.
