How To Reduce Microservices Complexity With Apigee And Anthos Service Mesh

In today’s modern development world, a microservices-based architecture is a go-to pattern for developing applications that are independent, flexible, modular, and language-neutral, and offers significant agility benefits over a monolithic architecture. A great example of an organization that has made this transition is L.L.Bean, where its legacy on-premises system had been constraining the company’s ability to be innovative and responsive. This led to a company-wide effort to modernize with Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and a microservices architecture. With this approach, L.L.Bean streamlined the process of upgrading nodes and delivered cross-channel services faster by cutting feature release cycles. But while decoupling…

Archive Data: Old Or Historic?

To be “historic,” an event or place must be associated with a degree of importance that makes it worthy of notice, study, or preservation. To be “old” merely means something has been around a long time or occurred long ago.Regulations and compliance enforce companies notably Insurance, finance, healthcare to preserve their customer, applications and transaction data for a minimum period. The period can be as low as 7 years and as high as forever. As a result, organizations end up having a huge amount of archive data which is typically stored in physical or virtual tapes. The archive data stays…

Migrate From Heroku Enterprise To Cloud Run While Keeping Devs And Ops Happy

Modern developers worldwide have grown accustomed to the comfort of writing code, pushing to a remote Git repository and having that code be deployed at an accessible URL without having to worry about how it is deployed. This was a workflow popularized by Heroku years ago which brought joy and productivity to developers even if it did impose some loss of flexibility for operation teams.To address that loss of flexibility when meeting security and integration requirements, Heroku introduced Private Spaces. Private Spaces provide network isolation from the internet since any application or datastore provisioned by Heroku is accessible to the…

Announcing Private Marketplace, Now In Preview

Google Cloud Marketplace is home to a wide variety of useful products for organizations across industries. The great selection it provides can create challenges, however, for cloud administrators who want to ensure that employees within their organization can easily view IT-vetted and approved applications. For example: when faced with such a broad range of products, employees might deploy an incompatible product version by accident; or they might not know your IT team prefers a specific product, leading them to adopt software your team hasn’t reviewed and approved. To help avoid these issues and make it easier for your teams to…

Accelerating App Development Lifecycle With Managed Container Platforms, Firebase And CI/CD

We understand that for startups in the build phase, the highest priority task is to continuously ship features based on your users’ needs. There are three main focus areas when building applications: Development: When it comes to development, focus on tasks that make your app unique by offloading backend setup and processing to someone else. For example, instead of setting up your own API servers and managing backend services, Firebase offers a managed experience. Hosting: Once you’ve built your app, the next step is to host it. Containers have become the de facto way of packaging applications today. You can…

Why I Love Go

I’ve been building software over the last four decades, as a developer, manager and executive in both small and large software companies. I started my career working on commercial compilers, first BASIC and then C. I have written a lot of code in many different languages, and managed teams with even broader language usage. I learned Go about 5 years ago when I was CTO at a startup/scaleup. At the time, we were looking to move to a microservice architecture, and that shift gave us the opportunity to consider moving away from the incumbent language (Scala). As I read through…

Accelerating Migrations To Google Cloud With MigVisor By EPAM

Application modernization is quickly becoming one of the pillars of successful digital transformation and cloud migration initiatives. Many organizations are becoming aware of the dramatic benefits that can be achieved by moving legacy, on-premises apps and databases into cloud native infrastructure and services, such as reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), elimination of expensive commercial software licenses, and improved performance, scalability, security and availability. The complexity of applications and databases to a cloud-centric architecture requires a rapid, accurate, and customized assessment of modernization potential and identification of challenges. Addressing business and functional drivers, TCO calculations, uncovering technological challenges and cross-platform…

How Kitabisa Re-Structured Its Fundraising Platform To Drive “Kindness At Scale” On Google Cloud

The name Kitabisa means “we can” in Bahasa Indonesia, the official language of Indonesia, and captures our aspirational ethos as Indonesia’s most popular fundraising platform. Since 2013, Kitabisa has been collecting donations in times of crisis and natural disasters to help millions in need. Pursuing our mission of “channeling kindness at scale,” we deploy AI algorithms to foster Southeast Asia’s philanthropic spirit with simplicity and transparency. Unlike e-commerce platforms that can predict spikes in demand, such as during Black Friday, Kitabisa’s mission of raising funds when disasters like earthquakes strike is by definition unpredictable. This is why the ability to…
