The JSON Web Token (JWT) is an open standard that allows information to be transferred securely between different parties. The token is digitally signed by using a private key (HMAC) or a public/private key (RSA) by building a JSON Web Signature (JWS). It guarantees that the JWT hasn’t been modified since its creation.

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.

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.

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.

PHPs compiler and bytecode cache OPcache not only cache the compile step from PHP source code to virtual machine bytecode, they also include optimizations that can produce faster bytecode: For example PHP can: For PHP 8.4 Tideways sponsored the work of our colleague Tim to add another compiler optimization for the function sprintf().

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.
