How container networking works at Platform.sh
Posted on November 2, 2023, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
We'll take a look at how we wire (most of) it up. In particular, we'll go over the role of the Platform.sh edge layer, and describe in detail how we network hosts and containers together. From the networking perspective, our job is to make sure that a request directed towards your web server reaches the right container, and that container is able to communicate with other containers that your hosted application depends upon, all while making sure that someone else's container cannot talk to one of your containers.

How IKEA Retail standardizes docker images for efficient machine learning model deployment
Posted on October 22, 2023, Level beginner Resource Length long
What do Docker and IKEA Retail have in common? Both companies have changed how products are built, stored, and shipped. In IKEA Retail's case, they created the market of flat-packed furniture items, which made everything from shipping, warehousing, and delivering their furniture to the end location much easier and more cost effective. This parallels what Docker has done for developers. Docker has changed the way that software is built, shipped, and stored, with Docker Images taking up much less space "shelf" space.

Build a blog with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Contentful
Posted on October 12, 2023, Level beginner Resource Length medium
One of the powerful features provided by Next.js is that we can write server components. This allows us to use static rendering, which means that all the HTML pages will be pre-rendered at build time. The front-facing site will not send any requests to the backend (in this case, Contentful). The content API will be queried only when we run the next build command and generate the static files.
