It was excellent joining Michael Vizard on the Cloud Native Now podcast this week, talking event-driven architecture, observability in cloud-native platforms, and the question of security in the open source application stack. We're seeing more event-driven cloud-native applications. Historically, event-driven architectures were complex and resource-intensive, making them less appealing for developers. However, advancements in storage, networking, and the widespread adoption of open-source tools like Kafka and MQTT have simplified the implementation of event-driven systems. This shift is evident in modern applications, including e-commerce platforms and IoT systems, where real-time processing and responsiveness are critical. Observability has become a cornerstone of managing cloud-native environments, particularly with the proliferation of microservices and Kubernetes. Traditional monitoring techniques fall short in these dynamic and distributed systems. Tools like StackState, integrated into platforms like SUSE's Rancher, enhance observability by providing insights into system behavior and performance. The introduction of AI-driven observability tools further aids in preemptively identifying and addressing issues, thus reducing the cognitive load on developers and allowing for more efficient system management. Security in the cloud-native landscape continues to be a contentious topic. While containerized applications offer advantages in terms of modularity and ease of updates, they also introduce complexities due to the sheer number of components and dependencies. The open-source nature of many cloud-native tools can be both a strength and a vulnerability. The collaborative nature of open-source development enables rapid identification and patching of vulnerabilities, but it also requires constant vigilance against supply chain attacks. Bridging the gap between security teams and developers remains crucial to ensuring robust security postures in these modern architectures.

In honor of COBOL's 65th anniversary, Derek Britton is collecting comments to publish in a COBOL 65 Guest Book. Think of it as the guest book at an event. You can write anything you want. You may write a few sentences about COBOL at your organizations or your personal experience with it. Or maybe you want to wax poetic about the value of COBOL or share a bit of COBOL history. It's up to you! If you're interested, please send a few sentences to Derek by next week. Long live COBOL!

Get a sneak peek at an OpenShift game changer! Watch Lisa Huston and Ben Randall illustrate how IBM Fusion will enhance your productivity and speed up your cloud-native transformation. Imagine you are responsible for your company’s cloud-native transformation. Developers want to spin up dedicated OpenShift clusters for every new project. Of course, some clusters remain steady state, but the on-going demand to spin up new clusters and reclaim unused clusters starts to become overwhelming. Now imagine you are in a control tower with the power to spin up clusters on-demand and reclaim unused clusters just as easily – full life cycle. With this new capability, IBM Fusion will harmonize virtual machines and containers on OpenShift and become a game changer for your platform modernization. #dataprotection, #ibmstorage, #cloudnative, #openshift, #highavailability, #ibmfusion, #containerization, #containerstorage, #containers, #openshift, #hybridcloud, #cloudnative, #watsonx, #virtualization, #vmotion, #multicloud, #multicluster, #virtualmachines, #vm, #kubernetes, #clustermanagement Julia Waldhier, Frank Lee, Brandon Mann, Pete Brey, Jason Paquet, Puja Leekha, Naz Nageer, Eleanor A.

Many K-12 schools only have their data backed up on-premise, exposing them to ransomware attacks. An additional layer of backup in the cloud brings more security for student, employee, and parent data.

Do things Better and different! No longer do city officials have to keep track of projects through excel spreadsheets, manual notebooks, or stacks of paper. TEKConnectGov's color-coded tracker and status system make it easy for an official to visually check and see projects that need attention. The TEKConnectGov software allows for officials to set up notifications and reminders for the originator of the project or application and/or for the official themselves. These tools are crucial to helping manage the many projects that are going on at once. Schedule your demo today. #cityplanning #localgov #govtech
