Exploring WebAssembly The web development landscape is constantly evolving, with new technologies emerging to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the browser. One such technology is WebAssembly (Wasm), a binary compilation target that allows developers to run high-performance code in web pages. Traditionally, web browsers have relied on JavaScript for interactivity, but JavaScript can … Read more
In the previous article, we explored how to set up a CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions to ensure code quality using unit tests and to publish Docker images to GitHub Container Registry. In this article, we’ll extend the same source code to include, an integration test and end-to-end-tests. This article provides a walkthrough of the … Read more
When you are bringing a new system to production you know that you ought to define SLIs, set up instrumentation, alerting, etc. Nowadays there is an abundance of tooling and infrastructure to extract data from your service and the entire stack it runs on. But this leaves you with a problem. What can we do … Read more
Have you ever dreamt of writing code that operates flawlessly across a multitude of devices, irrespective of their underlying hardware? Well, there’s no need to dream any longer! WebAssembly (Wasm) is here to turn that dream into reality, particularly for edge computing applications. This article delves into the realm of Wasm on the edge, demonstrating … Read more

Midokura is now developing a core part of the next-generation Edge AI sensing platform, “AITRIOS”, which is being commercialized by its … Read more
Manual deployments are not error-prone. Moreover, they consist of a bunch of repetitive and complex tasks. The development teams are afraid of the complexity of deploying a new version of an application and the headaches it brings. Sometimes, deploying an application requires advanced platform skills. It is a tedious process to debug deployment issues. FluxCD helps … Read more
CI/CD is a well-established software development dogma. The Internet is full of articles and pages talking about CI/CD. They always have the same CI/CD image. I bet you know the image I’m talking about. I read dozens of articles about the topic and experienced the implementation of an end-to-end CI/CD pipeline. The reality is that implementing a CI/CD … Read more
