Python has become the go-to language for enterprise-level applications, and it’s easy to see why. With its simplicity, versatility, and extensive libraries, Python provides an excellent framework for developing robust applications. But despite its wide use, successful enterprise app development with Python requires a thoughtful and strategic approach. In this guide, we’ll explore some of the best practices that can …
SBOMs: A Recipe for Software Success
While working with a client a few years ago, I was introduced to the concept of a Software Bill of Materials, colloquially known as an SBOM. It didn’t take long before I recognized its immense value and importance in improving security and integrity in software development. Hopefully, over the next few minutes as you read this blog, you’ll start to see that as well.
The topic of SBOMs has become more and more popular over the past several years and is increasingly critical in this technology-driven world. We’ve all heard of numerous enterprise-level data attacks, exposures, and leaks in recent years, and almost all are caused by some sort of security vulnerability. Many of these incidents could have been realized and possibly even mitigated before disaster struck if an SBOM had been in play.
The Foundations of SAFe: Part II (Core Principles)
Welcome back to Part II of our series covering Scaled Agile Framework. As a quick refresher, I’m a lead consultant at Keyhole Software, and for the past year, I’ve been helping my client adopt SAFe methodologies and practices. I’ve certainly learned a lot, and I want to share that knowledge with you.
Last time in Part I, I gave an overview of SAFe and discussed the four core values: Alignment, Transparency, Respect for People, and Relentless Improvement. Today, we’ll dive a little deeper, talking through SAFe’s ten core principles. Next time in the third and final installment, we’ll take a practical look at the pros and cons of SAFe and some tips for implementing it.
Serverless vs. Containers: Which is Best for Modern Application Deployment?
Modern application deployment involves critical decisions that can significantly influence technological growth and operational efficiency. The ‘serverless vs. containers’ debate epitomizes these choices, offering two distinct paths that cater to varying developmental needs and scenarios. Each framework provides unique advantages and presents its own set of challenges, making the decision crucial for developers who are focused on optimizing and streamlining …
