Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) vs Request/Response (RR)

In this video, Adam Bellemare compares and contrasts Event-Driven and Request-Driven Architectures to give you a better idea of the tradeoffs and benefits involved with each. Many developers start in the synchronous request-response (RR) world, using REST and RPC to build inter-service communications. But tight service-to-service coupling, scalability, fan-out sensitivity, and data access issues can still remain.

Kafka-docker-composer: A Simple Tool to Create a docker-compose.yml File for Failover Testing

Confluent has published official Docker containers for many years. They are the basis for deploying a cluster in Kubernetes using Confluent for Kubernetes (CFK), and one of the underpinning technologies behind Confluent Cloud. For testing, containers are convenient for quickly spinning up a local cluster with all the components required, such as Confluent Schema Registry or Confluent Control Center.

How to Navigate the Costs of Legacy SIEMs with Snowflake

Legacy security information and event management (SIEM) solutions, like Splunk, are powerful tools for managing and analyzing machine-generated data. They have become indispensable for organizations worldwide, particularly for security teams. But as much as security operation center (SOC) analysts have come to rely on solutions like Splunk, there is one complaint that comes up for some: Costs can quickly add up.

How Snowflake Powers The Next Generation Of Cybersecurity Applications

Cybersecurity is extremely data-intensive and complex. Top cybersecurity companies such as Lacework, Sophos, Panther, Hunters, Auditboard, Orca Security, and Dassana leverage Snowflake to provide out-of-the-box solutions.

Data Governance Framework: What is it? Importance, Pillars and Best Practices

Data forms the foundation of the modern insurance industry, where every operation relies on digitized systems, including risk assessment, policy underwriting, customer service, and regulatory compliance. Given this reliance, insurance companies must process and manage data effectively to gain valuable insight, mitigate risks, and streamline operations.

GitTogether | Open Source Dev Containers with DevPod | Hrittik Roy

Many developers are excited about Dev Containers, but until now, people needed to use a managed service like Codespaces or Gitpod to experience that Dev Container magic. DevPod is a new open-source tool that allows users to launch Dev Containers with any infrastructure they have available. DevPod introduces a way to define a development environment that can then be run on any cloud infrastructure or even on a localhost machine using Docker or Kubernetes locally or on the cloud. This talk is all about how you can use DevPod locally or on cloud to run your developer workloads easily.

Decoding the Dynamics of Software Development Team Structure

In the realm of software development, success isn't merely about the lines of code; it's about the people behind them and how they collaborate. The structure of a software development team lays the foundation for efficient communication, effective problem-solving, and ultimately, the delivery of high-quality products. In this exploration, we delve into the intricate layers of software development team structures, uncovering the roles, methodologies, and strategies that drive innovation and productivity.
