Today, there are 1.88 billion websites on the internet and the number is rapidly increasing. There are 3.8 billion people in the world that own smartphones today – which amounts to 48.16% of the world population. The internet traffic from mobile (as compared to that from desktops) has also been increasing, and now stands at 56%. The point I am trying to make is that if you have a website – it can be accessed from a web browser or a mobile browser.

Cloudera Data platform (CDP) provides a Shared Data Experience (SDX) for centralized data access control and audit in the Enterprise Data Cloud. The Ranger Authorization Service (RAZ) is a new service added to help provide fine-grained access control (FGAC) for cloud storage. We covered the value this new capability provides in a previous blog.

Cross-browser testing is performed to be sure that your product is working as expected on the various device, platform, and browser (and their versions) combinations that your customers might be using. With a plethora of devices and their versions in the market, it is integral to perform stringent cross-browser testing to attain a good market capture. Is it easy? No! Is it necessary? Absolutely yes! However, the pain and efforts associated can be reduced, if the cross-browser testing is cloud-based.

Does it feel like your business is paying too much for cloud services? You are not alone. Cloud costs are expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 10.5% to 13.1% through 2025, according to the International Data Corporation (IDC). While getting a handle on those cloud costs may be tricky, you don’t have to worry — we’ve got you covered.

Our joint customers can remain within Azure for all their cloud services, facilitating compliance and minimizing data movement costs.

Businesses are increasingly embracing a cloud-first approach to increase market responsiveness and flexibility. The cloud-first approach refers to a cloud-like experience consisting of on-demand metered consumption of IT infrastructure, whether on the public cloud or inside private data centers. The rapidly evolving consensus among the tech leaders and vendors has led to an emergence of hybrid IT.

Appian has been a recognized leader in cloud-based enterprise software platforms since delivering Appian Cloud in 2007. From the outset, we built our software to integrate with and complement the cloud’s unique advantages, and to protect it from vulnerabilities. We did so with a unique design philosophy, employing cloud-native and globally recognized frameworks like NIST for optimal security protection, business continuity, and enhanced support.

Only people who are living under the rock aren’t using mobile phones for their daily activities. Well, this means we all rely on our phones for things such as booking tickets, consuming multimedia content, or even ordering groceries and medicine. On average, most of us read, interact, engage and learn from the widely available resources like websites, mobile apps, etc.

According to Gartner, in the second quarter of 2021, mobile phone sales reached 328.8 million units with an increase of 10.8% year-on-year growth. It is remarkable and quite expected too! This outlines the need for using cloud-based automation platforms for mobile testing. Because when we are dealing with huge numbers and a global audience, it is the best bet.

Today's users of web and mobile applications and services expect fast and outstanding experiences. Delivering successful web services and applications means meeting these baseline expectations: In this blog post, we dive into why these three goals are vital to modern web applications and services. Then, we will look at how building global and distributed architectures achieve these goals.

Cloud testing, in simple terms, means testing software applications using the resources provided by the cloud. Resources can be any element i.e., hardware, software, or infrastructure which are necessary to carry out tests. Cloud testing helps an organization gain competitiveness by reducing the cost of testing. By using cloud computing services for testing, organizations or businesses can shorten the provisioning time.

As more and more companies move to a multi-cloud strategy and increase usage of a cloud native infrastructure, API providers are under a lot of pressure to deliver APIs at scale in multi-cloud environments. At the same time, APIs should follow each company’s security requirements and best practices, no matter the cloud platform. These reasons explain why many providers have such complex API authorization requirements.

Cloud-based technologies are on a rise today. Even if I deviate a bit from core IT fundamentals, the pandemic of 2021 made cloud tech a hero. It taught us how just an easy monthly subscription can give us access to thousands of movies, games, and live events such as the Tokyo Olympics via streaming. This is just a small example that we all can relate to and understand the cloud. In IT, however, the cloud means a lot more than just streaming media on the system.

Modern microservices-based architectures require companies to change not just the way they build applications but also how to deploy them. Basically, the new microservices foundation should be based on two main pillars: hybrid deployments and Kubernetes orchestrator. With the complete separation of the control plane (CP) and data plane (DP), Kong Gateway fully supports hybrid deployments.

More and more companies are eager to move their operations to the cloud. Yet, there’s quite a bit of ambiguity on what moving to the cloud actually means. Is your business running in the cloud while you host your database on another platform or while you rely on a third-party service to handle your payments? That’s a good start for moving to the cloud, but there are many other aspects to consider when building a cloud native infrastructure.

In the wake of COVID-19, we saw a significant shift toward as-a-service offerings, something we haven’t seen in years. From conversations with CIOs over the past 12 months, we know they are looking for the flexibility, efficiencies and cost savings they get from the as-a-service model. This is especially important to them as they evolve their business models in a hybrid IT direction and become consumers of IT.

Google Cloud Platform is a complex suite of services that are aimed at satisfying client’s computing, storaging, and application operating needs. App Engine, Cloud SQL, Cloud Speech API, Deployment Manager ( just a share of ) are the proud services of a GCP. All of them are developed for optimizing business and making business-client relationships easy and comfortable for sealing the deals and conversions go high.

Cloud-based technologies are increasing day by day. I remember what cloud meant to the people 10 years back and what it means now. It has grown more than just being “saving your files” to “developing on the cloud”. Cloud technology is almost everywhere today. From game development to machine learning projects to neural networks to automation testing- everything is on the cloud. And honestly, why shouldn’t it be?
