GitOps is a process of automating IT infrastructure using infrastructure as code and software development best practices such as Git, code review, and CI/CD pipelines.

Unlike many other technical portmanteaus, “GitOps” is worth defining, says @rwwmike, and here’s why:

Insights into considerations to be made for a robust future-proof API design

Placing an order and capturing a payment are really different actions. I also learned a lot in a few days.

We are told that technology is on the brink of ruining everything. But we are being lied to, and the truth is so much better. Marc Andreessen presents his techno-optimist vision for the future.

Shadow IT has been responsible for more enterprise SaaS deployments and workflow innovation that any growth strategy we've seen in the last 15 years. And that 's all about to end. Today we sit down with Yasu Matsumoto, who stepped down as CEO of Raksul after leading them from founding to post-IPO success, to start Josys, a new startup helping enterprises put an end to shadow IT once and for all. Yasu explains why that the end of shadow IT is actually a good thing for everyone, why he decided to step down from his high-profile CEO role, and the future of SaaS sales and marketing. It's a great conversation, and I think you'll enjoy it.

GPU worker nodes are essential for boosting AI/ML workload efficiency, and managed Kubernetes brings its own benefits to GPU acceleration.

It’s been more than 30 years since Linus Torvalds created the Linux kernel and distributed its first version. When we

The world stands on the brink of dramatic change. As things are getting worse, it will fall to all of us to rebuild and make something better. Collapse can be an opportunity.

10 years ago, we released an awesome CLI for developing single-page JavaScript applications. So, why did it fail?

Use our new open source Trace2 receiver component and OpenTelemetry to capture and visualize telemetry from your Git commands.

Don't punish people for looking.

Meta adds new features to Python 3.12, which the company uses for its AI/ML efforts.

Wouldn't you know that an episode about tacit programming would be a long one. We explore tacit modifiers on this episode. Host: Conor Hoekstra Panel: Marshall Lochbaum, Adám Brudzewsky, Stephen Taylor and Bob Therriault.

I'm a strong believer in the next generation Linux desktop model - which splits what is typically one monolithic system into different layers. This has been great for us at Universal Blue because it allows us to reuse Fedora's OCI images to deliver a more reliable and customizable experience for

PostgreSQL isn’t getting any younger. Which is fine – after all, databases generally improve with age. The platform is going from strength, and is a default choice for a big chunk of modern software development. But Postgres has been around for a while – it launched in 1986 – which has an implication for the

Quite often, I read and hear about people who are reluctant to embrace AWS Serverless. In this article I will provide my view on the most common arguments fielded against it.

An experiment on how to live in a seemingly hopeless world.

Dubbed the ‘crackberry’, it was a tech gamechanger and status symbol. So what happened to the first smartphone and why didn’t the execs see it coming?

With recent moves made by prominent players, Wayland seems closer than ever to being the path for Linux users—but, let’s be honest, X11 will never truly die.

I was fascinated with the rise of JavaScript as a ubiquitous but loose client-side programming language in our browser, but then also the introduction of it on the server-side with Node.js. I see a lot of parallels between the ubiquity and utility of JavaScript, and the ubiquity and utility of web APIs. I am equally fascinated by the rise of TypeScript in this fast and loose reality, bringing more discipline to the JavaScript programming realm. Using TypeScript as part of my work around Spectral rules governing APIs has left me thinking more deeply about the potential of not just strongly typed APIs, but strongly typed API operations surrounding our APIs across the enterprise.
