When we think of other products in Bugfender’s space, we don’t really think of competitors; we think of alternatives. Because, being honest, Bugfender doesn’t really have any direct competitors. That sounds like cheesy marketing, right? Yep, we get that. And we don’t say it to be arrogant. We say it because Bugfender was built to provide a unique service in our space. In fact it’s designed to serve the specific needs of our parent company, Mobile Jazz.

Developers are a fussy bunch. We sweat on the tiniest details and every aspect of our product has to be just right. We don’t like entrusting our precious designs to anyone outside our inner circle. Yet we’re increasing delegating key quality assurance (QA) tasks to robots. The market for automated testing products is expected to be worth $20 billion by 2023 – three times as much as now.

Today, Docker or Kubernetes are obvious choices. But, back in 2015, these technologies were just emerging and hoping for massive adoption. How do tech companies make the right open source technology choices early?

Thanks for continuing to read all of our streaming data use cases during my exploration of Talend Data Streams. For the last article of this series, I wanted to walk you through a complete IoT integration scenario using a low consumption device and leveraging only cloud services. In my previous posts, I’ve used a Raspberry Pi and some sensors as my main devices. This single board computer is pretty powerful and you can install a light version of Linux as well.
