Red Hat OpenShift

"There is already a command line for it, why can't my favorite editor support this language?" As a developer, you're probably familiar with this sentiment, and in reality t here has never been a better time to be a software developer. Developers have access to a growing list of languages, frameworks, libraries, and technologies that can help them solve the problems they are tasked to tackle. However, the abundance of choices often hinders the ability of Integrated Development Environments (IDEs)...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qQ1bGoNcEs From May 10th to May 14th we arrived at Florianópolis (with a short travel to Campinas) to do what we love the most: talk to developers.

Red Hat delivered a lot of great content to the audience, with speakers presenting dozens of talks in the Java EE, Java, Cloud Computing, Architecture, DevOps and .NET tracks...

I recently had an interesting problem which served as a great learning experience. It involves hair-pulling levels of frustration, vicious finger-pointing, and an unexpected ending --- not a TV Soap opera episode, just a day in the life of a developer. It all started with a REST API I had built for a customer proof of concept that started refusing requests after an arbitrary period of time. Nothing was unusual in the codebase of the REST API --- it was...

Jenkins is great, and it has done a lot to make our lives easier. It seems like not so long ago when the idea of continuous integration tools was a daunting task. Jenkins came to the rescue, and I (and many others) use it a lot... A LOT. Given that my day to day work is in consulting, I'm constantly working in different development environments with different technologies - and a common thread among all those environments is Jenkins. It...

I've been working with some of our teams recently on microservices and how we can assist our customers and communities with best practices and recommendations, whether they're Java EE developers, Vert.x coders, writing Node.js applications or something else. If you've read any of my previous articles then you'll know I have a few thoughts on microservices, and yet there are many things I still feel I need to get straight in my own head. That's why I love talking with...

In today's fast paced world of business, delivering quickly is a top priority. Doing so is difficult, however, if you lack confidence in your codebase or rely on error prone deployment processes. Continuous integration enables development teams to automatically run test cases prior to merging code into a stable branch, while continuous deployment leverages automation to provide more reliable, faster deployments of that code. Red Hat Mobile Application Platform supports an agile approach to developing, integrating, and deploying enterprise mobile...

Several Red Hat speakers gave presentations, including: Eder Ignatowicz - Java/JVM - about how OO Design Patterns had changed with Functional Programming: " Refactoring to Patterns...

Recently, I have been hearing a lot of debate around whether it is worth someone's time to learn OSGi. Doing a simple Google search on "OSGi usability" returns results filled with phrases such as "not easy to use", "unproductive", "developer burden", and "going away". However, you will also find that it solves a lot of common issues in the JVM, particularly issues around class loading. So is learning OSGi worth your time? What is OSGi? OSGi is meant to solve...

The upcoming version of GCC adds support for this newest version of the standard. This post highlights some of the latest features, changes, and "gotcha's" to look out for. Taskloop construct Diving right in, the 'taskloop' construct...

Everything on a computer system eventually ends up being run as a sequence of machine instructions. People want to keep things simple and understandable even if that is not really the way that things work. The simple programmer's model of a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) processor executing those machine language instruction is a loop of the following steps each step finished before moving on the the next step: Fetch instruction Decode instruction and fetch register operands Execute arithmetic computation...

Red Hat's Burr Sutter will be giving a session titled " An Enterprise Developer’s...

Today is a pretty exciting day if you’re an enterprise developer. . . Red Hat and Microsoft have announced that the two companies will be working together to bring a supported version of the .NET runtime to Red Hat’s Enterprise Linux and OpenShift 3. This offers developers more freedom and choice in how they develop their applications. Having spent a big part of my career at Microsoft and working with .NET since its inception, I’ve grown to love the strengths...

A huge problem facing modern enterprises is managing the large software systems and applications they deal with on a daily basis. Be it the CRM system purchased by a predecessor, a bundled HRM product thrown in to sweeten a deal, or the CMS that marketing could not live without, silos of information exist in the modern enterprise, and it can often be difficult to utilize the data that these systems contain. When an enterprise decides to buy a proprietary system...
