DevSecOps: Why you should care and how to get started
Posted on February 7, 2022, Level beginner Resource Length long
The increasing popularity of DevOps software development methodologies has led to shorter and more agile life cycles, in which software is released and deployed in minutes or hours rather than the days, weeks, or even months required under traditional practices. However, many development teams still experience delays in getting releases into production due to the security considerations that are traditionally brought to bear at the end of the life cycle. To address this, organizations are more and more frequently adopting a DevSecOps approach. By Katrina Novakovic, Chris Jenkins.

Controlling concurrency in distributed systems using AWS Step Functions
Posted on January 29, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Managing concurrency in distributed systems can be challenging. In a monolithic application, you use familiar concepts such as in-memory locks to avoid overloading a database or prevent overwriting a customer record by two users at the same time.
