When building web applications in PHP, there may be times when you want to add metadata to annotate your code that can be read by other parts of your application. For example, if you've ever used PHPUnit to write tests for your PHP code, you'll have likely used the @test annotation to mark a method as a test in a DocBlock. Traditionally, annotations like this have been added to code using DocBlocks. However, as of PHP 8.0, you can use attributes instead to annotate your code in a more structured way.

GitLab SAST is a combination of GitLab— an integrated solution that covers the entire DevOps lifecycle — and, Klocwork — a static code analysis and SAST tool. When used together, these tools provide software development teams with a powerful GitLab SAST solution. Here we explain the benefits of GitLab SAST.

The world of Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly evolving, with a wide array of models available for businesses to leverage. These models can be broadly categorized into two types: closed-source (proprietary) and open-source models. Closed-source models, such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, Anthropic’s Claude 3, or Google’s Gemini 1.5 Pro, are developed and maintained by private and public companies.

In today's financial services landscape, the need for speed is paramount. Traditional financial processes are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of modern consumers and businesses. The synergy of three emerging technologies promises to expedite financial services processes: By implementing a data fabric, financial institutions can break down silos, enabling data to flow freely across the organization.

Welcome to day two of Koyeb launch week. Today we're announcing not one, but two major pieces of news: Our lineup ranges from 20GB to 80GB of vRAM with A100 and H100 cards. You can now run high-precision calculations with FP64 instructions support and a gigantic 2TB/s of bandwidth on the H100. With prices ranging from $0.50/hr to $3.30/hr and always billed by the second, you'll be able to run training, fine-tuning, and inference workloads with a card adapted to your needs.

Background job processing is integral to modern software architecture. Background jobs allow resource-intensive tasks to be handled asynchronously, improving your application’s responsiveness and efficiency. You can use background processing for tasks such as sending emails, data processing, and batch jobs. If you were to run these synchronously, they could significantly degrade the user experience and system performance. Thus, most frameworks have libraries for running background jobs.

According to StackOverflow’s 2022 survey, 46% of professional developers rate MySQL as the most popular database to use in the workspace. As programmers, we should not be bothered with repeatedly writing code which is otherwise readily available, robust, and well-tested. Yet this problem remains persistent in the REST API space, despite the implementation process being by this point in time rote, repetitive, and prone to error and oversight. This oversight is costly for several reasons.

In the ever-evolving world of software development, a well-defined test plan is the cornerstone of a successful Quality Assurance (QA) process. For QA professionals, testers, testers, and developers alike, a robust plan ensures comprehensive testing, minimizes risks, and ultimately delivers high-quality software. Traditionally, spreadsheets like Excel have been the go-to tool for crafting test plans. However, as projects grow in complexity, the limitations of spreadsheets become increasingly apparent.
