A Software Engineer's Tips and Tricks #4: Collaborating on Visual Studio Code with Live Share

Hey there! We're back for our third edition of Tips and Tricks, our new mini series where we share some helpful insights and cool tech that we've stumbled upon while working on technical stuff. Catch up on the previous posts: All of our posts are super short reads, just a couple of minutes tops. If you don’t like one of the posts, no problem! Just skip it and check out the next one. If you enjoy any of the topics, I encourage you to check out the "further reading" links.

What Separates Hybrid Cloud and 'True' Hybrid Cloud?

Hybrid cloud plays a central role in many of today’s emerging innovations—most notably artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies that create new business value and improve operational efficiencies. But getting there requires data, and a lot of it. More than that, though, harnessing the potential of these technologies requires quality data—without it, the output from an AI implementation can end up inefficient or wholly inaccurate.

Analyzing AWS Audit Logs in Real Time Using Confluent Cloud and Amazon EventBridge

Last year, we introduced the Connect with Confluent partner program, enabling our technology partners to develop native integrations with Confluent Cloud. This gives our customers access to Confluent data streams from within their favorite applications and allows them to extract maximum value from their data.

Best Practices and Benefits of Data Migration in Oracle Cloud

Data migration refers to the process of moving data from one location to another. In the context of Oracle Cloud, data is transferred from on-premises systems or other cloud platforms to Oracle’s cloud infrastructure. Whether you’re migrating databases, applications, or entire systems, a complete approach is critical to a successful migration.

The engineering behind autoscaling with HashiCorp's Nomad on a global serverless platform

There are several ways to handle load spikes on a service. However, these methods are not cost-effective: you either pay for resources you don't use, or you risk not having enough resources to handle the load. Fortunately, there is a third way: horizontal autoscaling. Horizontal autoscaling is the process of dynamically adjusting the number of instances of a service based on the current load. This way, you only pay for the resources you use, and you can handle load spikes without any manual intervention.

A Software Engineer's Tips and Tricks #3: CPU Utilization Is Not Always What It Seems

Hey there! We're back for our third edition of Tips and Tricks. As we said in our first posts on Drizzle ORM and Template Databases in PostgreSQL, our new Tips and Tricks mini blog series is going to share some helpful insights and cool tech that we've stumbled upon while working on technical stuff. Today's topic is short and sweet. It'll be on CPU utilization and what that metric indicates. If you enjoy it and want to learn more, I encourage you to check out the "further reading" links.

Overcoming scale challenges with AWS & CloudFront - 5 key takeaways

The Ably service handles massive amounts of data throughput and concurrent connections for many customers while maintaining a highly reliable and available service, with a 5x9s uptime guarantee. Ably has no scale ceiling, and that’s challenging work (it’s one of the reasons I joined Ably). While the challenges we face in delivering our service are compelling, we sometimes face novel internet scale problems, such as breaching the limits of AWS services!

Serverless GPUs in Private Preview: L4, L40S, V100, and more

Today, we’re excited to share that Serverless GPUs are available for all your AI inference needs directly through the Koyeb platform! We're starting with GPU Instances designed to support AI inference workloads including both heavy generative AI models and lighter computer vision models. These GPUs provide up to 48GB of vRAM, 733 TFLOPS and 900GB/s of memory bandwidth to support large models including LLMs and text-to-image models.

A Software Engineer's Tips and Tricks #2: Template Databases in PostgreSQL

Hey there! We're back for our second edition of Tips and Tricks. As we said in our first post on Drizzle ORM, our new Tips and Tricks mini blog series is going to share some helpful insights and cool tech that we've stumbled upon while working on technical stuff. Today, we're going to talk about the template databases of PostgreSQL. Remember, these posts will be super short reads. If you don’t like the topic of one of the posts, no problem!
