We discuss in detail how developers can reduce app size by compressing images, removing unused resources, and optimizing their APK and IPA files for different types of devices.

The Apache Solr cluster is available in CDP Public Cloud, using the “Data exploration and analytics” data hub template. In this article we will investigate how to connect to the Solr REST API running in the Public Cloud, and highlight the performance impact of session cookie configurations when Apache Knox Gateway is used to proxy the traffic to Solr servers. Information in this blog post can be useful for engineers developing Apache Solr client applications.

Businesses have been scaling rapidly in the cloud, driven by the pandemic and lured by the promise of agility and flexibility. But here’s a dirty little secret anyone who works in data knows.

Routing is a crucial aspect of an app. Just like when you manage the application state or build the UI, you should give sufficient attention to optimizing the routing of your application. An optimized routing system helps users navigate your app and can handle the user state efficiently. go_Router is a declarative and minimal routing system built on top of Flutter’s Router API. go_router provides a convenient URL-based API to navigate between different screens.

A service mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer that manages traffic, also known as communication, between services in applications composed of containerized microservices. It is a critical component in a microservices architecture, responsible for the secure, fast, and reliable communication between services. This article answers a lot of the questions you may have about service meshes: What are they and how do they work? Who is using them and why?

Flutter is an open-source tool designed to build fast and beautiful applications across multiple platforms. The Flutter SDK has been widely adopted for developing mobile applications, and many developers are learning Flutter every day. It is important to create content that can help them do this, and that’s the aim of this blog post! So, we’ve prepared a simple cheat sheet of different Flutter widgets (and in Flutter, everything is a widget!), which you can use to build your Flutter apps.
