This blog post is part two of a two-part series on how we broke down our monolith to scale our API management with Kong Gateway, the world’s most popular open-source API gateway. (Here’s part one.) At NexJ, the pioneer of intelligent customer management with client engagement products designed for the financial services industry, we sought to capture the full addressable market by breaking down the monolith and going API-first.

As we take stock of how COVID-19 has affected the way we operate, nothing in technology is more apparent than the switch to digital. Although many of us have transitioned from water-cooler conversationalists to reluctant zoom dwellers, the impact on business processes themselves might actually be more profound. According to McKinsey, coronavirus has acted as an accelerant on companies offering digital products and services.

Imagine that you’re at your company’s all-hands meeting and one of the sellers is proudly ringing the office gong to celebrate closing a big deal with a client who’s on the other side of the world. It’s a big deal because it’s a major project. Their logo is going to look sleek on your website, and you are finally breaking into a new region of the world. But two months after the project kicks off, the situation isn’t looking as rosy.

Hardware design typically entails teams of many designers with a wide range of disciplines. Each of these designers manage a different aspect of the project, maybe with different workflows, and generate a large amount of diverse data. Data management tools like Helix Core manage a substantial portion of this data. In this blog, find out how these tools are best used with an IP lifecycle management platform like Methodics IPLM to solve the unique challenges for hardware design projects.

In the CNCF ecosystem, Envoy, an open source service proxy developed by Lyft, is a very common choice in service mesh networking. In a previous post we discussed that both Consul and Istio leverage Envoy. Were you aware that you can extend Envoy’s capabilities with WebAssembly? What is WebAssembly? WebAssembly, or Wasm as it is often abbreviated, is not so much of a programming language as it is a specification for a binary instruction format that can be run in sandboxed virtual machines.

Commonly, your website or app functions perfectly until you release it. During testing, you might seem to have control over everything. But, sooner or later, you will face some challenges. In fact, it is totally normal when something goes wrong. The most important thing is how you settle these problems. In most cases, issues with availability alerts and users’ complaints can be addressed by the means of IIS logs. IIS logging will provide you with the necessary data to deal with a breakdown.

Organizations may struggle with getting the full value of their data without knowing it. Their data science team uses data warehouses to power business intelligence solutions to create reports, dashboards, and other data visualizations. However, the time it takes for this information to reach teams makes it difficult to use for daily decision-making. Operationalizing data warehouses sends these insights directly into daily operations systems, thereby allowing for immediate access.

My name is Shanmukha Kota and I am a recent graduate from University at Buffalo. I interned with Cloudera last summer and joined Cloudera as a software engineer a couple of weeks ago and this is my first experience with CDP and CDP Operational Database. For a new hire college graduate in the industry with only academic experience with HBase, I can only say it is very simple and easy to set up and work with CDP Operational Database.

“Letting the data speak for itself” is a well known phrase with a hard truth: Data presented on its own rarely communicates meaning for itself. For most people, it’s the context behind the numbers, the story, that helps us understand and care to act.
