Amazon Web Services (AWS) Kinesis is a cloud-based service that can fully manage large distributed data streams in real-time. This serverless data service captures, processes, and stores large amounts of data. It is a functional and secure global cloud platform with millions of customers from nearly every industry. Companies from Comcast to the Hearst Corporation are using AWS Kinesis.

Many organizations are investing heavily in the data space, and Azure Synapse is one of the technologies in the Microsoft stack which is very popular. Within Synapse, Data Flows are the component of Synapse used to orchestrate the movement of data into and out of your Data Lake and for orchestrating jobs within your Data Platform. The business heavily depends on your data platform for movements of data within the organization and the analytics-driven from data via Synapse.

More and more companies around the world are using cloud solutions to run their applications, software or to store their data. But what about cloud compliance? The democratisation of the cloud is not surprising as it provides access to virtual data storage where companies no longer need to buy or maintain their own IT infrastructure. However, with cloud solutions, the security of user data should not be overlooked. There are cloud certifications and regulations that can help you in your choice.

With the emergence of new programming languages, libraries, packaging systems, and dependencies, the open source landscape has become more diverse. At the same time, companies are finding it more and more complex to package and deliver open source software. This creates a massive challenge for independent software vendors (ISVs), large enterprises, and other organizations that need to control their software supply chain lifecycles while adhering to industry standards and best practices.

The new release of AppDynamics Cloud addresses one of the most common feature requests we've had: tagging. Let's explore what tags are and how to use them.

FinOps, or cloud financial operations, is a method that helps organizations bring financial accountability to their cloud’s operational expenses. To see success, the cross-functional teams leading FinOps efforts — including finance, IT, and business professionals — need the right tools to manage and optimize their cloud costs.

In part two, I will cover: Microservices Architecture Overview: New Challenges for Monolithic Architecture As an application grows, so does the amount of code written. This can quickly overwhelm the development environment every time it needs to be opened and run. As you must deploy everything in one place, this approach means that the transition to another programming language, or other technologies becomes a big problem.

Today’s modern cloud architectures centered on AWS are typically a composite of ~250 AWS services and workflows implemented by over 25,000 SaaS services, house-developed services, and legacy systems. When incidents fire off in these environments—whether or not a company has built out a centralized cloud platform—distinct expertise is often a necessity.

AWS did not intend to build Amazon EKS; it simply had to. Kubernetes adoption beamed light years ahead of AWS' own managed container orchestration service. This forced AWS to develop a managed service to accommodate customers who wanted to use upstream Kubernetes but did not want to do the management themselves. As soon as AWS got around to it, it knocked the Kubernetes-based container management service out of the park.
