Taking Jamstack to the Edge with Azion

Jamstack is a modern approach to develop and deploy websites at scale. This approach decouples the frontend from the backend and databases. The frontend is prebuilt into highly optimized static pages and assets using a Markup language such as HTML. Being static, these assets can be deployed on an edge platform for faster delivery. The backend applications that generate dynamic content are usually accessed using APIs, making pages rich and personalized.

How Image Optimization Helps Media Companies Improve Their UX

In the communications industry it is common to hear that an image is worth a thousand words. The power of images is indisputable. Indeed, various studies have shown that 90% of information transmitted to the brain is visual, and the brain processes visuals 60,000 times faster than text.

What Are the Basics of Serverless Computing, Containers, and VMs?

The rise of cloud computing brought on-demand computing services to users connected to the Internet. Between 2006 and 2008, computer resources, such as storage and processing capacity, began to be offered commercially for medium and large companies. The increase of its popularity only forced the original cloud computing model to transform to new approaches or paradigms for providing more virtualized resources to a broader audience. Nowadays, we have many digital devices sending large amounts of data with high speed in real-time and connected to the network for long periods. This new approach requires virtualization with high computational capacity that can be decentralized and easily scalable. Edge computing addresses these challenges by enabling new architectures.

A Quick Guide to Securing Serverless Applications

Since its inception, the serverless model has revolutionized computing--but how has it changed security? Serverless computing platforms enable developers to build and run applications that are managed by the serverless provider, with automatic scaling and resources charged on a per-use basis. This means that the underlying infrastructure is not only provisioned and managed, but secured by the serverless provider, so developers don’t need to worry about some of the greatest security risks, such as known vulnerabilities in unpatched servers.

Edge Computing for Digital Transformation

In recent years, the development of the human lifestyle has been conducted by rapid changes in technology and growing demand for digitized devices and services. That pace of change could be accelerated by new scientific discoveries, advances in technological tools (independent to the growth of knowledge, as we have limitations related to construction capacity), and the greater interest of the population in new fields such as artificial intelligence, Internet-of-Things (IoT), robotics, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. We have experienced these changes mainly since 2000 with the incorporation of communication technologies in health, engineering, economics, and transportation. Nowadays, it is almost impossible to consider it decoupled from our daily activities, whose main objective is to help us make decisions, simplify the administrative and technical processes, and improve the quality of the product or services.

Embracing Digital Transformation

Transforming a company is hard. So hard in fact, that major company-wide transformations are more likely to fail than succeed. And the odds are even slimmer for digital transformations. Whether you’re a traditional company trying to claw your way onto the world wide web, or a sleek digital enterprise that’s pouring every resource into staying cutting edge, major digital overhauls are a serious undertaking. Here’s the bad news: It just became even harder. Here’s the worse news: Change is inevitable and inescapable.

Keep Your e-Commerce Available on Black Friday 2021

Having a site or application outage on Black Friday is every e-commerce owner’s worst nightmare. E-commerce is notorious for it’s razor-thin profit margins, making these major holiday shopping days not only important, but critical to the success of retailers’ apps and websites. Due to the pandemic, many shoppers opted to avoid crowded stores and order online last year, using curbside pickup or delivery to minimize contact while receiving their purchases. As many shoppers continue to adjust their shopping patterns pre- and post- pandemic, and others make permanent changes to their routines, e-commerce stores must ensure their sites are prepared to handle huge traffic spikes this holiday season.

If you’re looking to quickly and easily build out the functionality of your website, or if you’re new to development, REST APIs are a great place to start. By allowing different applications and application components to interact with each other, APIs save developers the trouble of writing custom code from scratch. This makes them an almost indispensable tool for programming.
