Building multi-platform event-driven microservices and functions shouldn’t drive you mad, and if so, there should be a method to your madness! In this short webinar hosted by DZone, learn to build event-driven microservices and functions using Project Flogo.

“Serverless” allows developers to focus on writing their code, and a cloud provider, like AWS, takes care of all the other bits. Building serverless apps means the developer doesn’t have to worry about server management, scaling, or high availability, a convenience that usually comes with the added benefit of lower operational cost. We’ll be showing how to use the Project Flogo lightweight integration engine and open source framework to deploy functions to AWS Lambda using SAM.

Let’s talk (to) bots! In this case I’m not talking about the awesome autobots, that save the world from Megatron, but Slack bots that help people collaborate and introduce a little fun! Several weeks ago Slack published an article about building the modern collaboration hub and how that hub makes sure that people can interact with each other and their data. On the Internet, everyone loves interaction… and cats, so let’s build a Slack bot that provides your Slack instance with a bit of cat facts!

Serverless offers huge potential to transform the way businesses build and architect cloud applications. No need to provision infrastructure or deal with maintenance, updates, scaling, or capacity planning - simply upload your apps to Amazon Web Services…

We believe every developer has that one special technology they love – whether ESB, open source, or NodeJS. So we decided to put it all together in one easy to use place. That said, you don’t have to use iPaaS to deploy this tech. You can even choose to deploy them on-premises, to a private cloud, to devices, or to serverless environments.

Together with the O’Reilly team we did a webinar on Low-Code App Dev. APIs and microservices are awesome if you’re a technical developer, but what if you’re not and you still need to understand how they connect? In this 60 minute webcast, Leon Stigter and Bruno Trimouille of TIBCO Software introduce how low-code platforms can help marketing and sales teams to automate their workflows and deliver on business goals without getting under the hood.

As the AI-fueled, edge-exposed, blockchain-driven, and streaming analytics-enabled use cases of the future move closer into view, new technologies are needed to make the vision real. Unique and complex workloads accompany the use cases of the future, but luckily, the enabling technologies to compute those workloads have already arrived.

I get to work with serverless microservices on a daily basis, those are services I use myself and ones I help our customers build to take advantage of the benefits that serverless brings you. With many services needing to be deployed and continuous updates, I found myself doing the same thing over and over.

Together with the O’Reilly team we did a webinar on visually building microservices. Modern and digital experiences today are powered by the fine-grained units of execution we call microservices. However, building microservices isn’t always simple—especially if you’re not an expert developer. How can we make it easy for developers and architects to visually create an API definition so they don’t need to become Swagger experts? Developing your microservices can also be complex, especially when you also need to take into account API specification. How can you visually create your microservices and deploy the same project in a private cloud, a public cloud, and on-prem?

Last year on February 14th we published a blog post on " Building the Ultimate Valentine’s API." Personally, I had a lot of fun writing it and finding facts related to how we spend our Valentine’s Day (though I forgot to bring home chocolates and flowers to my wife, who was none too pleased)!
