In the world of software-as-a-service, product-led growth (PLG) is an easy way to enable users to experience the value of a product firsthand, without restrictions. PLG can drive adoption, retention, and sustainable business growth with its robust and open framework. But what drives PLG best, a freemium model or a free trial? With freemium, your top of funnel growth can skyrocket, while free trials see a 2-3x higher conversion rate thanks to urgency (ie, users lose access immediately on trial end).

Learn how to identify & resolve edge cases when testing complex systems and the best ways to prepare a test suite to validate performance.

The ability to process and analyze information in real-time is more than just an advantage—it’s a necessity. SAP HANA, with its in-memory technology, has emerged as a leader in this domain, offering businesses unparalleled speed and agility in data analytics. However, as powerful as SAP HANA is, maximizing its potential often requires seamless integration with other platforms and applications. Enter DreamFactory: an open-source API generation platform designed to connect the dots.

With demands on software development teams to work faster than ever before, efficiency is King. Many teams are implementing test automation to boost productivity, as manual testing can be time-consuming and error prone. Test automation revolutionizes the testing process. It enables you to automatically publish test results from various automation frameworks directly into your test management environment.

API gateway authentication is one of the key functions of an API gateway. In carrying out this function, the API gateway manages authentication and authorization for the entire group of APIs that sit behind it. In this way, API gateway authentication safeguards your systems and information against unwanted access, data breaches, hacks, and mistakes. While the basic premise of API gateway authentication is easy enough to grasp, this guide offers a more nuanced understanding of the concept.

Application programming interfaces (APIs) serve as the backbone of today’s digital economy. They connect applications and web services with each other to exchange information and deliver thousands of digital experiences to users every day. With such significance, APIs can’t afford to be buggy, and software testers must frequently test them to identify and address potential issues. However, there’s a catch. Sometimes an API is not fully developed, or is simply too expensive to access.
