If MongoDB's WiredTiger memory cache in Red Hat Mobile Application Platform (RHMAP) consumes all the memory available for a container, memory issues and Nagios alerts will occur. This article describes how to configure the WiredTiger memory cache to prevent high-usage memory issues and Nagios alerts.

In this article, we’ll demonstrate how Red Hat Mobile v4 and OpenShift v3 enable customers to rapidly deploy and secure their mobile applications by integrating with a third party product provided by Intercede. We’ll be using Intercede’s RapID product to enable two-way TLS.

Use Private NPM modules with RHMAP. In this Blog post entry I will try to cover, how to use Red Hat Mobile Application Platform with private npm modules from registry.npmjs.org.

From hobbyist SoC devices such as the ubiquitous Raspberry Pi to a complete domination of the mobile device market, ARM processors have proven the value of the architecture. It is easy to see why ARM processors were able to explode in this market, given that they are able to pack quite a bit of performance into a rather small physical space. Take for instance Qualcomm's Snapdragon 400 processor , which is used in many products including the Huawei Watch This...

RHMAP Environments An RHMAP Environment provides a Node.js runtime for Mobile Backends. There are 2 environment types: Dynofarm & OpenShift. The former is an LXC based PaaS, written in Node.js & bash. It is superseded by OpenShift environments. However, there are still many Dynofarm environments in use in the RHMAP SaaS offering. fh-npm Rationale fh-npm is a wrapper for npm. It is only used in Dynofarm environments to install npm dependencies specified in a package.json file. It was developed by...

Introduction One of the biggest challenges for developers to build mobile applications is data synchronization. It's the foundation for many different types of mobile applications, but it's very complicated and very hard to implement. This can be even harder for enterprise developers, as often they have to make sure the data is not only synchronized to the server side of their mobile apps but also synchronized to the database backends of their enterprises, as demonstrated in this diagram: That's why...

For your end users, one of the most important aspects of your API is the perceived response time --- if your mobile application takes an excessive amount of time to load data, users will get frustrated. In this series of blog posts, we’ll cover three ways to approach building a RESTful API that leads to better user experience by minimizing perceived response time. These strategies include: processing requests quickly, reducing payload sizes, and eliminating requests entirely, or only downloading data...
