Node.js Performance APIs: An Introduction

Node.js offers a rich set of performance data through its APIs, similar to how modern web browsers expose performance metrics for webpages. With tools like the Performance Measurement API and the perf_hooks module in Node.js, you can gain insights into your application's performance from the server's perspective, closely aligning with what the end user experiences. In this article, the first of a two-part series about performance hooks, we'll explore how to approach performance optimization in Node.js.

7 Capabilities to Look for in Low-Code AI Tools

Artificial intelligence (AI) can transform the way your enterprise does business—but if you can’t quickly implement AI in your business processes, you’ll just as quickly fall behind competitors. This is where low-code AI tools can help. Over the past decade, low-code platforms have enabled software engineers, professional developers, and employees with minimal coding experience to build new digital, automated solutions using drag-and-drop interfaces.

Monoliths: A Space Odyssey to Better Developer Experience

Aside from its depiction of a charming-but-homicidal AI, 2001: A Space Odyssey is perhaps best remembered for its monoliths. Seemingly out of nowhere, these perfectly smooth and space-black slabs compel prehistoric apes—and later, an advanced team of astronauts—forward to touch and understand them. To see into whatever secrets they might contain. The film stays purposely ambiguous about the meaning of these monoliths.

EP7: Platformless: Revolutionizing Enterprise Software Engineering

Join us for a new episode where Sanjiva and Asanka, the visionary authors of the platformless manifesto, explore the groundbreaking concept of platformless in enterprise software engineering. They unveil the inception and collaborative effort behind platformless, guiding viewers through its core principles and four essential technology pillars: API-first, cloud native middleware, platform engineering, and developer experience. Whether you're considering building from scratch or investing in a platformless solution, this discussion offers invaluable insights into the unique benefits it brings to architects.

Let's build a Hanami app

Hanami is a relatively new full-stack Ruby web framework. Unlike Rails, which has many default assumptions about how an app should be built, Hanami promises developer freedom by not imposing too many such defaults. The framework is also blazingly fast due to its low memory footprint and focus on minimalism. Combine that with a focus on strict abstractions, and you get a fully-featured Ruby framework that could rival Rails for building some applications, such as APIs and micro-services.
