A smart security camera takes in a high volume of video images and processes those images using a set of machine learning models. Those models can identify interesting snippets of movement throughout the day and decide which ones to keep. Some of the video snippets might contain movement of birds — but others might contain footage of intruders.
Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to be at AirFrance/KLM in KLM’s Digital Studio to talk about Project Flogo and brainstorm on where they could use it to improve and expand their digital footprint. The team was kind enough to share the recorded video on YouTube.
No matter the metric, serverless is definitely gaining interest. It’s the dream of every developer, supplying the ability to deploy services in the cloud in no time, automatically scale them, enjoy automagic management by a cloud provider—and, most important, keep it all cost effective! How does this dream become a reality?
This presentation covered what serverless is all about and the benefits of running your apps in the serverless environment. It covers the monoliths-microservices-functions progression and when, where, and why to use serverless architecture and how Project Flogo fits in to the overall picture
Innovation at the edge is driven by a whole host of people and personalities, but who makes sure those innovations get into production? Developers.
In this TIBCO Tech Talk, I walk through tools and technologies that help developers build better software, faster.
The talk covers:
The latest updates for Project Flogo, an open-source and ultra-lightweight edge computing platform A brief demo of Flogo and API Scout How to get started on your developer journey with these tools
In today’s world everyone is building apps, most times those apps are event-driven and react to what happens around them. How do you take those apps to, let’s say, a Kubernetes cluster, or let them communicate between cloud and on-premises, and how can developers and non-developers work together using the same tools?
As a developer advocate, I’m in the amazing position to talk to lots and lots of developers. Throughout those conversations I hear a lot of the same concerns popping up. Two of those being, “where did I deploy that microservice?” 😩 and “what is the API definition of that microservice again?"😟
Not too long ago Flogo introduced a new Go API that allows you to build event-driven apps by simply embedding the Flogo engine in your existing Go code. Now you can use the event-driven engine of Flogo to build Go apps while using the activities and triggers that already exist and combining that with “regular” Go code. In one of my other posts, I built an app that could receive messages from PubNub and for this post, I’ll walk through building the exact same using the Go API.
I can hear you think “Part 2?! So there actually is a part 1?” 😱 The answer to that is, yes, there most definitely is a part 1 (but you can safely ignore that 😅). In that part I went over deploying Flogo apps built with the Flogo Web UI using the Serverless Framework. Now, with the Go API that we added to Flogo, you can mix triggers and activities from Flogo (and the community) with your regular Go code and deploy using the Serverless Framework.
I got a ton of great feedback on my post Securely Chatting Microservices, so I decided to create a video out of it and start a new video series called Flynn in Flight!
