The Keyhole Labs team has announced that the Byzantine Config has been accepted into Hyperledger Labs.
Hyperledgerยฎ Labs is a community-based innovation space gathering people who share a common interest in developing blockchain-related software. Entrance into Hyperledger Labs allows Byzantine Config to be further tested, innovated, and used by the wider Hyperledger community.

With the introduction of .Net Core 3.0, Microsoft has built its own web UI framework.
Introducing Blazor: Microsoft’s fully C# client-side framework. With the help of its Razor platform, Microsoft is attempting to put its hat in the ring with the likes of Angular, React, and Vue.
Blazor allows developers to fully design and execute web pages purely with C# — it is meant to eliminate the need for JavaScript. The goal is also to hopefully limit the number of vulnerabilities found in front-end UI work.
In this post, we give an introduction to Blazor and a quick tutorial for getting started.
In our prior segments of this series, we addressed being able to add in pages to the application and have them automatically registered with the navigation. We also discussed having Markdown content associated with different pages of the application.
In this segment, we will talk about the philosophy of using smaller single-page applications in place of large ones. Weโll discuss how to add in a single-page application to this application. And we will dive into a couple of the example single-page applications and talk about how they were built specifically….

This is an in-depth learning seriesย focused on a specific application: a JavaScript-based suite of single-page applications optimized for use in a microservice environment. We focus on telling the story of “why” and “how” it was built.ย
Remember when Netflix first came out with its suite of distributed components? It included Eureka for service discovery, Hystrix for circuit breaking, and Zuul for intelligent routing. Netflix was running on an AWS infrastructure back then, but the infrastructure didn’t exist for Netflix to manage its microservice ecosystem. The industry has come to describe the Netflix components within the larger context of a service mesh.
AWS recently introduced App Mesh, a highly-available set of services that integrate with the AWS ecosystem and provide the capabilities Netflix was looking for back in the day.
In this post, we provide an introduction to AWS App Mesh and show a quick tutorial of bringing a reference microservice into an AWS App Mesh.
Iโve been in the software development business for a long time and I canโt tell you how many login screens with authentication logic I have implemented. You might say that one of the most prevalent user stories is the need to log in and securely authenticate a userโs access to an application.
Here at Keyhole Software, we have implemented countless login and authentication approaches for applications, along with simple to sophisticated authorization schemes enforcing access control of applications. Of course, you can utilize the single sign-on type of technologies such as OAuth or OpenID, which offload the development of a login UI and the logic for authentication/authorization. However, these standards are not always utilized in enterprise environments. Many enterprises will have a single authentication mechanism that exploits a federated operating system network such as LDAP. A login UI still has to be created and authorization rules still have to be applied to each application.
Over the last few years, we have helped organizations transition away from monolithic-based applications to isolated microservice-based architectures. With Microservices, authentication and authorization logic is now spread across many decoupled distributed processes. It was a bit simpler with monolithic architectures as only a single process is authenticated and contains access control rules defined.
In this blog, we discuss a design pattern for authorization and authentication for use in a distributed microservices environment.
