If you are currently running the Robot Operating System 2 (ROS 2), this piece is especially relevant to the security of your robots. A few weeks ago, a group of security researchers reported 13 security vulnerabilities affecting some of the most used implementations of DDS, the default middleware used by ROS 2.

Over the past decade, the software development landscape has shifted dramatically. Long development cycles resulting in big releases are now a thing of the past. Instead, the focus is on delivering value to the customer quickly and efficiently through small releases delivered at a high frequency. This shift is not without its challenges. Increased release velocity means an increased threat to security and reliability. To combat this, teams must collaborate fluidly across the organization.

The Arm architecture dates back to Acorn Computers’ BBC Micro in 1981. The BBC Micro was a conventional machine, yet it ran nearly twice as fast as its contemporaries, such as the Apple II. About the same time, research on a microprocessor design based on the Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) demonstrated that simple chip designs could easily outperform the current high-end 32-bit offerings.

AWS re:Invent 2021 was an especially unique event, as it was the industry’s first big in-person event since the start of the pandemic. After nearly two years of virtual events, being able to walk the expo halls in-person was an adjustment to say the least.

Introduction As all companies become software driven, DevOps is becoming an important practice in enterprises and startups across the world. DevOps is about bringing velocity to delivering tech products and services, so you can delight customers and meet business goals. To achieve this velocity, development (dev) and operations (ops) teams work closely together across the software lifecycle - from planning to release. And this has led to a new role in engineering teams - DevOps Engineer.
