Cloud environments have become ever more complex, with an increasingly interconnected set of services. To tame this complexity and deliver differentiated digital experiences, IT, development, security, and business teams need automated workflows throughout these cloud ecosystems. But to be scalable, they also need low-code/no-code solutions that don’t require a lot of spin-up or engineering expertise.

Over the past years, the adoption of Agile and DevOps grew, and together with it, we have also observed the rise of DevSecOps. Such practice recommends shifting left security testing and remediation of security vulnerabilities as early as possible within the SDLC. While the idea is great, and we’ve seen the rise of many types of security testing tools, for developers that are no security experts, finding the needle in a haystack white using such tools is a challenge and a delay to the overall re

Everybody knows about ChatGPT.

I’m not going to argue with any of that. None of us want to drown in masses of “fake news,” generated at scale by AI bots that are funded by organizations whose intentions are most likely malign.

Bloom filters are an essential component of an LSM-based database engine like MyRocks. This post will illustrate through a simple example how bloom filters work in MyRocks. Why? With MyRocks/RocksDB, data is stored in a set of large SST files. When MyRocks needs to find the value associated with a given key, it uses a bloom filter to guess if the key could potentially be in an SST file.

In earlier days, it was easy to deduct and debug a problem in monolithic applications because there was only one service running in the back end and front end. Now, we are moving toward microservices architecture, where applications are divided into multiple independently deployable services. These services have their own goal and logic to serve. In this kind of application architecture, it becomes difficult to observe how one service depends on or affects other services.
