Most enterprises rely on large volumes of aging code that are a challenge to debug, maintain, and update. At IBM Research, we’re using AI to help modernize software stacks, designing automated programming and refactoring systems to help businesses keep up with the speed of modern life.

Introducing fine-grained personal access tokens

One of the most interesting properties of WebAssembly is sandboxing. By default, WebAssembly instances don’t have access to anything. Only the embedder decides…

This is the second part of a 3-article series. This is a story about the downsides of the Go programming language, the part about it that…

I always enjoy conversations about API management providers or more specifically what API gateway providers should or shouldn’t be providing as they work to specialize or be everything to everyone. Today’s post was triggered by my friend James Higginbotham Tweeting about API gateway providers trying to do everything, but this narrative also reflects what I see over and over as I talk to different enterprise organizations about their API operations. As an API platform provider, I see enterprise organizations asking for more features, while in the same breath complain about the bloat, complexity, and lock-in of other solutions. I think we like to poke at API gateway providers for trying to do everything, but they are just doing this in response to customer request, as well as analyst expectations—granted. Enterprise organiations should learn to say no from time to time, but I think we should be poking at enterprises unwillingness to do the hard work needed, as well as investor pressure on API service providers to deliver what customers need.

In the spring, we released “ADX,” the very first iteration of the protocol. Over the summer we improved ADX’s design, and today we’re sharing a preview of what’s to come.

Red Hat has introduced “Project Wisdom”, a natural language processor for creating Ansible playbooks, used to automate application deployment and IT infrastructure updates. The project was unveiled at the AnsibleFest event under way in Chicago. Project Wisdom uses technology from IBM Research, AI for Code, which aims to use AI for modernizing software stacks, automating […]

We caught up with a member of Google’s Aurora project, a collaboration between Chrome and web frameworks such as Next.js, Nuxt and Angular.

Distributed data can be a challenge to training artificial intelligence models. Federated learning can change the paradigm.

Confinement is a way to block Kubernetes or any running application from accessing any system resource without requesting that specific access.

An introduction to this new field, including the tools and skills it entails as well as how it differs from DevOps and site reliability engineering.

Since its inclusion in the Linux kernel, the WireGuard VPN tunnel has become increasingly popular. In general, WireGuard is simpler to configure than other VPNs, but the approach that it takes to authentication can present some challenges. Each node in a WireGuard network has a cryptographic key that serves as the node's identity; nodes that do not know each other's keys cannot directly communicate. Keeping track of these keys and distributing them to the other nodes in a mesh network quickly becomes a chore as the network grows. Fortunately, there are now several open-source tools that can automate the management of these keys and make using WireGuard easier for both administrators and end users.

I’ve found my new favourite example of a well documented, tiny slice of data infrastructure. I’m going to hazard a guess that it’s probably the simplest dataset that is designated…

We’re less interested in empowering developers and a lot more pessimistic about the prospects of getting this stuff right. There are, in the literature and in the most sophisticated modern systems, “better” answers for many of these items. If you’re building for low-footprint embedded systems, you can use STROBE and a sound, modern, authenticated encryption stack entirely out of a single SHA-3-like sponge constructions. You can use NOISE to build a secure transport protocol with its own AKE.

Data in its current state is insufficient to meet the needs of users and intelligent applications. It needs to be elevated to digital knowledge by supplementing it with machine-actionable metadata. This is necessary to align on FAIR principles, reduce data wrangling, support the establishment of Open Data APIs, and unleash computer intelligence.
