Best Practices for Moving from a Monolith to Microservices

In the first post of this series, we looked at the state of your organization, how to tell if Microservices are right for you, and wrapped up with a few challenges this architecture brings to the table. In this article, we will look at organizational changes that will help you adopt a Microservice architecture. Additionally, we will touch on topics like how to bring change to your organization, how to embrace the primacy effect, and why you should embrace cross-functional teams.

Breadcrumbs for JavaScript

Breadcrumbs can help you debug client-side JavaScript applications, and are available to all Honeybadger customers as of today. One of the things that makes fixing JavaScript errors so difficult is that everything happens on the client-side. When an obscure error happens in a callback, you often lack the context to reproduce it. If the error is critical, you may even resort to deploying debug code to get more information about the events leading up to it.

.NET Performance Optimization: Everything You Need To Know

It’s Friday afternoon, the majority of the development staff has already packed up and headed home for the weekend, but you remain to see the latest hotfix through to production. To your dismay, immediately after deployment, queues start backing up and you begin to get alerts from your monitoring system.

Four Logging Best Practices for Production Applications

Logging is an essential part of just about any PHP-based application; whether in a script or a larger application. However, how little is too little and how much is too much to log? If we don't log enough information, when something goes wrong, as it invariably does, then we won't have enough information available to determine what went wrong so that we can fix the problem. However, if we have too much information, then we'll be unable to filter out the white noise.

Add the Bugfender SDK to an iOS app

With Bugfender you can debug your app remotely, find the bugs faster and provide better customer service. Follow this guide to add Bugfender to your iOS app using cocoapods. Thanks to new languages like Kotlin and Swift we can see more and more web programmers jumping into the native development. We started this series of videos with basic tutorials to help new developers and also experienced developers coming from other platforms (React Native, Xamarin, Ionic…). This video can be used as a guide to start creating a new Xcode project and integrating the Bugfender SDK with cocoapods, but if you want to go further we have a lot of tutorials and articles in our docs and in our blog. As you can see, having a remote console for your apps is a 5-minutes task that can save you hours of debug in production. See you in the next video. Happy debugging!

How to adopt Mobile DevOps practices: mindset and technologies

Mobile DevOps is more than simply adopting a new set of tools and practices: it also comes with the need to adopt a completely different mindset, in the form of a cultural-organizational change.
