Speed isn’t everything in software development, but getting high quality apps out fast is still crucial. That’s where DevOps comes in: its core purpose is to streamline the delivery of apps as quickly and reliably as possible, without sacrificing quality at any stage of the process. ‍ At the heart of DevOps automation are three essential concepts: CI, CD, and CT. ‍ CI and CD are often used interchangeably, but each of the three concepts serves a distinct purpose.

The key to securing large language models (LLMs) lies in adopting a Zero‑Trust framework. This approach ensures that every interaction - whether from users, devices, or applications - is verified, authenticated, and authorized. With the rise of LLMs in enterprise environments, traditional security models no longer suffice. Here's how DreamFactory's Gateway helps implement Zero‑Trust principles effectively.

We’re excited to announce the beta support for Mesh Manager in the Konnect Terraform Provider — a new tool that brings the power of infrastructure-as-code to Kong’s Service Mesh management platform. This provider enables engineering teams to declaratively manage Konnect Mesh resources using HashiCorp Terraform.

We're happy to announce the 3.5 release of Kong Ingress Controller (KIC). This release includes the graduation of combined services to General Availability, support for connection draining, as well as the start of deprecating support for some Ingress types as we help move customers to the Kubernetes Gateway API. Let’s get into more details about these!

In this post, we'll explore two advanced JIT compilers for Ruby: TruffleRuby and JRuby, looking at their benefits and drawbacks. We'll also briefly touch on the recently announced ZJIT compiler. But before we get started, let's define JIT compilation.

Historically, software development clearly separated business and IT roles. Business teams defined the business requirements, while IT teams built digital experiences (e.g., customer-facing applications) based on these requirements. There was a continuous feedback loop where business teams reviewed and provided feedback, and IT teams made necessary changes until the digital experience was public-ready.

Thinking about enabling OPcache Preloading to squeeze more performance out of your PHP application? It’s an advanced feature with very specific benefits — and in most cases, you likely won’t notice a difference. In this post, we’ll explain what OPcache Preloading is, how to set it up, and when (or if) it makes a measurable impact.

APIs are critical for connecting modern systems, but building them manually is slow and complex. This is where automated API generation platforms have become so appealing. By replacing tedious, manual coding with streamlined workflows, these platforms can take vast and complex data sources and turn them into secure, manageable APIs almost instantly. The result: faster innovation, tighter security, and much lower operating overhead.
