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.

In this blog entry, I want to introduce a "different" way to work with OpenShift. In the typical way to deploy a Pod to OpenShift, we have available a set of very useful objects we have build/image configurations. This takes the pain from us by hiding the details about image construction but, sometimes we just want to see some code running in the cloud. Or we want to see if our service/application is able to interact with nearby services or...

I've started an interesting exploration on the integration of Microsoft Windows Containers and Linux Containers in an OCP Environment. This allows a true bi-modal IT technical implementation by combining the strength of both platforms into one cluster. So, I start this off, with the deployment of an OpenShift Cluster on Azure, using the 3.6 reference architecture . After this is run, I used the Azure Portal to add a Windows Server 2016 Node to the cluster. So if you look...

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...

In this session, we'll give a live demo of Red Hat Mobile Application Platform, demonstrating the full range of features from client-side coding, to server-side coding, to reusable Mobile Backend-as-a-service (MBaaS) services in Node.js. This will be a bottom-up explanation of the power of the platform, and it's aimed at software developers who have an interest in mobile client-side or server-side development in Node.js.

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...

This article shows how you can write RHMAP Cloud Apps to perform push notifications to: All devices subscribed to a ‘category’, enabling the possibility of users choosing the notification categories they find interesting. A specific group of users, providing efficient communication with a defined set of users. With RHMAP, it is simple to deliver a notification to a set of users/devices based on category. For example, if your app reports sports results, you can filter the results to only send...

Objective Some days ago, I was having an argument with a few Java developers about Node.js, they asked questions like “why should I use that?” or “what’s the benefit?”, I told them by memory that Node.js is an event driven I/O, and thanks to that you will end up writing very efficient server-side applications. They come back saying that they can get the same effect using threads. Thing is I wasn't fully prepared to explain the difference, I had a...
