While building anything digital, including developing digital content, the makers of the roadmap should incorporate some amount of flexibility into the product roadmap. Especially while working in an agile framework, it is compulsory to have a feedback loop incorporated into the development process. In this blog, I discuss the fundamental differences between agile roadmaps and traditional roadmaps and why agile roadmap is the way to go ...

Are we there yet? No matter where you're going, as soon as you embark on your journey at least one impatient person sighs and asks that dreaded question. In this case though, I'm talking about the journey to mature software delivery. As organizations chart their path along the road to digital transformation, efficient software delivery has become a key element to respond to rapidly changing market dynamics, meet customer needs, and quite frankly, stay in business ...
What makes low code such a crucial technology within a digital transformation journey? Overall, it gives businesses the opportunity to empower all users — even those outside of IT — to drive significant change within their organizations. Low-code implementation enables a business to bring all of its investments together to achieve true transformation ...
Moving toward DevSecOps isn't necessarily an easy process. Organizations first need to adjust their culture to embrace security and define enterprise-wide application security policies and standards to be enabled through automation. Then, they can invest in the required integration of such techniques in the CI/CD processes, including the means to report on discovered issues as would happen for any other software defects. But what does this really mean? ...
Delivering clean and safe software is no longer an option for developers or the organizations they work for. Customers have little patience for buggy, error-prone apps and software that's rife with critical vulnerabilities. These sort of quality and security issues can seriously hurt a company's brand reputation and negatively impact revenues ...
5G mobile broadband network operators encounter challenges on a number of various levels due to the nature of their large-scale, complex, dynamic, and highly distributed infrastructure requirements. Let us take a closer look into the top five technical considerations and how to best optimize Kubernetes for 5G deployments ...
Every year, thousands of IT professionals around the world are surveyed to discover the challenges they face, and the advantages they gain, when introducing DevOps for both application and database development ...
Steve Ballmer, the CEO of Microsoft in the early 2000s, is well known for his "developers, developers, developers" speech, highlighting the more developers, the better. Andy Jassy, the CEO of Amazon, often talks about the importance of builders, urging companies to invest in them, and ensuring that Amazon Web Services, the world's largest public cloud, serves builders as best as it can. Why did both of these technology visionaries place so much emphasis on developers? ...
Static application security testing (SAST), which scans code to find vulnerabilities and bugs, is increasingly considered a best practice for detecting problems early in the development cycle. However, to gain broader adoption both within an organization and across the industry SAST must overcome several barriers based on lingering perceptions. Let’s look at these in more detail ...
Organizations of all sizes and industries are increasingly adopting cloud native approaches. The benefits to the business are enormous, but at the same time, the transition introduces new threats and a wider attack surface. New research from Aqua Security reveals that organizations struggle to keep pace and to detect and secure the ever-growing attack surface. In fact, findings from Aqua's 2021 Cloud Security Report: Cloud Configuration Risks Exposed, showed that 90% of companies surveyed are vulnerable to security breaches due to cloud misconfigurations ...
When it comes to digital accessibility — making sure your website, mobile site, app or content is convenient and easy to use for people with disabilities — great progress has been made with automated testing. Deque Systems recently conducted a study that found the total number of digital accessibility issues which can be identified through our automated technology is 57% ...
If security teams cannot prioritize or secure their Kubernetes deployment, the entire cloud application stack and larger organization are at high risk. When not protected, attackers are able to take advantage of cluster settings and escalate privileges to gain full control, which can result in company breaches and the exploitation of private data. Cybersecurity teams should follow these steps to better protect their data stored in the cloud from attack ...
In 2020, while a pandemic raged and teams everywhere learned how to work remotely, something rather unexpected happened to DevOps: it grew up. Teams stopped talking about DevOps and simply started doing DevOps, bringing in "big guns" technologies, new ways of thinking, and making huge breakthroughs in everything from release times to automation, new technology adoption and code quality ...
The gamification of work enables individuals to showcase skills and demonstrate value in ways previously unavailable to employees and employers ...
