Serverless doesn’t mean zero servers! Instead, let your cloud providers manage the infrastructure for you, reducing the burden on your developers and Ops team to manage, scale, and predict capacity with a Serverless approach

Cloud-first initiatives allow organizations to build highly scalable and available applications, improve efficiencies and productivity, and reduce expenses associated with data centers.

Let’s explore another technology that simplifies development for the cloud and other targeted platforms—containerization

How are cloud-native organizations using microservices to focus teams and support CI/CD pipelines?

Whether microservices are right for your application depends on what you’re developing and how much you need to scale in the future.

In the digital transformation era, businesses are increasingly adopting cloud-first initiatives to harness the benefits of scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. The shift to cloud computing brings unparalleled benefits but also introduces new challenges and risks, and ensuring the security of digital assets has never been more critical.

When disaster strikes, it’s critical to have a plan. That’s true in our personal lives as well as the data and repos that companies depend on to stay in business. In addition to disasters such as flooding, wildfires, and even freak Texan blizzards, companies should plan for and be able to recover from cyber attacks and ransomware.

DevOps teams using cloud services often self-provision the resources they need to build products, which reduces bottlenecks in the development process. Cloud storage provides more flexibility to accommodate growing data sets and spikes in storage demand compared to on-premises data centers.

You cannot improve what you do not measure,” especially if you don’t even know it’s happening. Last month we covered the benefits of going cloud-native, but organizations adopting a cloud-native strategy should plan for cloud observability to reap the most benefits.

Cloud-native is a software development approach that designs and builds applications that take advantage of public, private, and hybrid clouds. While many SaaS applications use cloud technologies, they are not all cloud-native.
