In the early days of web application development, monolithic frontends and backends were perfectly fine. But the emergence of the cloud has changed expectations. Developers want to build applications that exchange information with APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). Business owners want faster development times. End users expect zero downtime. This new paradigm enabled the rise of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and, along with it, microservices and web services.

In the fast-paced world of mobile app development, a seamless, secure, and adaptable CI/CD process is essential. Bitrise has established itself as a leader in this domain, providing a mobile-focused CI/CD platform that allows you to automate all your build, test, and deployment workflows. But what if regional restrictions, data sovereignty, or compliance regulations prevent your organization from implementing a managed CI infrastructure like Bitrise?

Do you have a DB2 database that needs a REST API? Now you can connect to your IBM DB2 with DreamFactory in just a few minutes. In this short blog post I’ll explain how you can connect to DB2 with DreamFactory’s auto-generated REST API for DB2.

Logs play a vital role in understanding how applications and systems perform, but unstructured log data can be hard to analyse. The Grok parser helps by converting raw logs into structured, readable formats. It is widely used for extracting information such as timestamps, error codes, and IP addresses from logs, making them easier to analyse and query.

Buffer overflow is one of the most common code vulnerabilities. If a buffer overflow vulnerability is not addressed, an untrustworthy agent can take advantage and cause a buffer overrun. In this blog, we break down what is buffer overflow, how to prevent buffer overflow, and we provide examples to help make safeguarding your software against buffer overflow simpler and easier. Read along or jump ahead to the section that interests you the most.

In the fast-paced world of software development, ensuring top-notch quality is a must. One approach that has gained significant traction over the years is Exploratory Testing. Unlike scripted testing, exploratory testing focuses on real-time discovery, creativity, and problem-solving. In this article, we will understand exploratory testing, its benefits, techniques, and how tools like Keploy can support this process. Let’s get started!

In the dynamic world of software development, ensuring that applications remain stable and functional as they evolve is crucial. This is where regression testing plays a vital role, especially when employing powerful test automation tools like Playwright. For software developers and QA professionals, creating a detailed test plan for regression testing using Playwright can significantly enhance the efficiency and reliability of testing processes.

Composability is a growing trend in enterprise software development. It means designing your organization to be flexible so you can adapt to change in real time. Modularity lies at the heart of composability. Modular approaches have been around for decades, such as in service-oriented architecture (SOA) and microservices. But the rise of low-code platforms, cloud computing, and modern integration tools has made it easier to implement composable architectures at scale.
