Index maintenance is a critical component of database administration as it helps ensure the ongoing efficiency and performance of a Structured Query Language (SQL) Server environment. Over time, as data is added, updated, and deleted, index fragmentation can occur, where the logical and physical ordering of index pages becomes misaligned. This fragmentation can lead to […]
In the past few articles, we explored how to use different event sources in Ansible Event-Driven Automation (EDA). In this demo, we’ll focus on how event filters can help clean up and simplify event data, making automation easier to manage. Specifically, we’ll explore the ansible.eda.dashes_to_underscores event filter and how it works. When using Ansible EDA with […]
AI is no longer optional. From fraud detection to predictive maintenance, businesses everywhere are investing in machine learning and deep learning models. But training and running these models isn’t light work. They require high-performance hardware, massive storage, fast networking, and serious automation. Public clouds like AWS and Azure offer AI-ready infrastructure, but not every company […]

Along with the rise of Kubernetes, there is another shift that is happening under the hood – the rise of serverless architecture, which is quietly rewriting the way we deploy and scale applications, with Java taking a lead. Java, which is usually associated with legacy code and monolithic enterprise applications, has been slowly but steadily […]
Monitoring containerized applications in Kubernetes environments is essential for ensuring reliability and performance. Azure Monitor Application Insights provides powerful application performance monitoring capabilities that can be integrated seamlessly with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). This article focuses on auto-instrumentation, which allows you to collect telemetry from your applications running in AKS without modifying your code. We’ll […]

In today’s post, I would like to dive deeper into one of the newest—relatively speaking— topics in the distributed systems domain. As you may have guessed already, the spotlight is on Conflict-free Replicated Data Types or CRDTs for short. I will explain what they are and what role they play in the larger landscape of […]
An Introduction to DevOps and AI Integration DevOps is this awesome mix of teamwork and tech that’s all about getting software developers and IT operations on the same page. It’s less about silos and more about chatting openly, working together, and using automation to pump out top-notch software faster than ever. In today’s wild, fast-moving […]
Microservices architecture has gained significant popularity due to its scalability, flexibility, and modular nature. However, with multiple independent services communicating over a network, failures are inevitable. A robust failure-handling strategy is crucial to ensure reliability, resilience, and a seamless user experience. In this article, we will explore different failure-handling mechanisms in microservices and understand their […]
