Digital transformation is happening rapidly, especially following the pandemic. Those who do not implement key strategies will be left behind. Some industries are adapting more quickly than others. However, few have unlocked digital technologies’ full potential, including the manufacturing industry. Transforming a manufacturing chain requires integrating and applying advanced digital technologies, but many remain wary, despite growing evidence that digital adoption supports ongoing growth.

The quest for resilience and agility has driven us into the modern age of microservices. Bringing services to market on a microservice architecture demands utilization of sprawling technology offerings and tooling. While daunting at first glance, we can break down the process into 3 major categories: In this hands on series, we will use.

Pervasive connectivity unifies all of your organization’s technologies and data so you don’t have to worry about whether assets integrate correctly. With pervasive connectivity, you get integrated experiences that lead to an improved user experience, data readiness, and human-computer interactions across diverse devices. API-led connectivity can contribute to your pervasive connectivity goals.

When you need two or more applications and services to exchange data between them on a regular basis, REST integration (or REST API integration) is one method that slowly but steadily gains status of the new and preferred standard. But as with any other project where you need to connect apps and web services via API, integrating REST requires good preparation and a solid methodology to avoid project delays, development overhead and too many errors. So, how do you do REST integration the right way?

Enterprises are spending more and more of their budgets on technologies and IT infrastructure as they invest in digital transformation. As a result, the “digital economy” — a term used to describe all the economic activity that results from digital technology spending — accounts for 9.6 percent of U.S. GDP, according to the latest statistics. But what is the digital economy, and what are the processes underpinning it?

ContainIQ runs all infrastructure on Google Cloud (GKE), and was able to get Speedscale installed within a few minutes. After installing the Speedscale operator, ContainIQ began capturing traffic from the primary gateway where service calls come into a cluster.

Developers spend a lot of time worrying about UX (user experience). After all, UX is a major factor in why clients choose you to develop applications. However, DX (developer experience) is a lesser-known and incredibly important aspect of software development. Here are four ways that you as a business owner or as a developer can start improving the developer experience.

It’s prudent business practice to only focus on your core features when getting to Minimum Viable Product (MVP). Microservices architectures allow you to outsource non-differentiated pieces of your solution to third-party providers; Use someone else for user management, billing and account management. At first blush, it might seem attractive to develop your own API analytics solution, perhaps by building on top of a web analytics tool like Amplitude, MixPanel or Segment.
