When developing multitenant applications, managing data storage efficiently is one of the most critical challenges developers face. In previous discussions, we examined various deployment models, such as share-nothing, share-everything, and hybrid approaches, highlighting their benefits, limitations, and the specific needs of multitenant applications. These models attempt to balance scalability with the strict isolation of tenants’ data. However, one key takeaway was that while creating multitenant applications can often be straightforward, managing multitenant storage is far more complex. The challenge primarily arises from the conflict between sharing resources and maintaining isolation between tenants. In many cases, applications are stateless and can…

The future of open source is currently embroiled in a contentious debate, with Meta being at the center of the controversy. Open Source Initiative (OSI) chief Stefano Maffulli has accused Meta of “bullying” the industry by pushing its own version of what constitutes open source, challenging the OSI’s established standards. This disagreement, as The Economist colorfully describes, sees purists confronting Meta, a tech giant led by Mark Zuckerberg. The crux of the matter lies in the challenge AI presents to the traditional, decades-old definition of open source, a definition that was already struggling to keep up with the rapid evolution…

Earlier this week, users who were planning to use the resources of the Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) from Edgio until November 2025 received unexpected news: the CDN will now be shutting down on January 15, 2025, much earlier than initially expected. This change is a result of Edgio’s financial difficulties, as the company faces bankruptcy and must cease operations. Rich Lander, Principal Program Manager for .NET Core at Microsoft, provided more details on this abrupt shift in a post on GitHub. He explained that some .NET binaries and installers are currently hosted on Azure CDN domains ending in .azureedge.net.…

Optimizing the performance of .NET applications is essential for creating high-performing software, especially when it comes to resource management. Memory allocation and deallocation play a critical role in performance, particularly in resource-intensive applications. One key area to focus on for optimization is the management of string objects. Since string manipulations can be costly in terms of memory usage and processing time, it’s important to choose the right method for splitting strings to ensure that resources are handled efficiently. In C#, the most commonly used method for splitting strings is string.Split(). While it’s effective in many scenarios, it can introduce performance…

Over the last two decades, there has been a significant push in the tech industry to simplify the process of software development by abstracting away the complexities of managing the underlying infrastructure. Serverless computing is a paradigm that takes this goal to its extreme, allowing developers to focus solely on their code and business logic, without worrying about the servers, operating systems, or other infrastructure components. With its promise of increased efficiency and lower overhead, serverless computing has gained popularity and is projected to become a $50 billion market by 2031, according to a recent SkyQuest Technology report. At its…

In 2024, Python has continued to solidify its place as one of the most popular and versatile programming languages. The latest advancements in Python 3.13 showcase the language’s ongoing evolution, further enhancing its speed and power while addressing longstanding issues. These updates have garnered attention from developers worldwide, ensuring Python’s relevance and appeal in an increasingly competitive programming landscape. Let’s take a closer look at the major developments that have shaped Python’s success this year. One of the most significant updates in Python 3.13 is the introduction of the “no-GIL” build. The Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) has long been a…

At a recent developers’ conference I attended, the word “AI” seemed to elicit a collective eye roll from the audience. It wasn’t subtle—attendees openly showed their disdain each time the term was mentioned, which happened frequently. Similarly, during a call with about 250 engineers, I prefaced a discussion about AI with, “I know this will make you cringe, but…” The remark was met with laughter and a flurry of thumbs-up emojis. Clearly, the sentiment was shared: people are tired of the hype. But what’s driving this reaction? It’s not an outright rejection of artificial intelligence. On the contrary, developers and…

Observability is the practice of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data from applications, cloud resources, and edge devices to ensure seamless operations, optimize user experiences, and manage costs effectively. As businesses increasingly depend on digital services, observability has become a cornerstone for maintaining performance and reliability. According to a recent Gartner report, organizations that effectively leverage observability tools can gain a significant competitive edge, with 70% of these companies benefiting from faster problem resolution and smarter decision-making. The shift from monolithic architectures to microservices, combined with the demand for instant digital experiences, has added layers of complexity to observability. Many organizations…

Kubernetes, widely known as K8s, has become the backbone for orchestrating containers at scale. However, enterprises often face significant challenges when managing Kubernetes in large-scale deployments, particularly as the number of clusters grows. Its inherent complexity makes troubleshooting and diagnosing issues a daunting task. At the same time, IT teams are increasingly turning to AI as a potential solution to automate and simplify the management of intricate backend systems. Generative AI, in particular, holds promise as a tool to reduce friction and streamline Kubernetes operations. The idea of leveraging AI for IT problem-solving isn’t new. As Itiel Schwartz, co-founder and…

Redis stands as the go-to choice for developers seeking a powerful, feature-rich, and high-performance database. Historically recognized as a caching solution, Redis has evolved into a robust platform offering far more than just caching capabilities. While debates over open-source licensing may entice those inclined toward ideological discussions, practical developers looking to deliver results will find Redis superior to its fork, Valkey. The appeal lies in its advanced features and proven reliability, making it a clear favorite for modern application needs. Redis CEO Rowan Trollope strongly emphasizes this point, particularly after the launch of Redis 8.0 and its integration with Redis…
