Infrastructure as code is a core component of all modern SRE team’s day-to-day work. There are plenty of options available, but the one that I’m most excited about is Pulumi. Instead of writing a domain-specific language (DSL) to configure your infrastructure, Pulumi lets you write the language you already know. For me, that’s Typescript, but if you prefer Go, Python or DotNet programming languages, that’s an option too.

Picking the right performance testing tool can be a challenge. What should you look for and what is important? Performance testing is a phrase many developers have come across at some point, but what is it exactly? In simple terms, performance testing is a software testing practice used to determine stability, responsiveness, scalability, and most important, speed of the application under a given workload.
DevOps is all about collaboration and efficiency. The intent is to speed up the software development process to bring the products or services faster to the market. DevOps methodology focuses on standardising the development environment to deliver updates, upgrades, and security features to the end-user more quickly, improving customer privacy and security. So, what DevOps tools should you master?
Speedscale is seeking to cut time and errors out of the Kubernetes and container delivery pipeline with their ability to discover API connections, automatically generate tests and data, replay traffic, and spin up realistic lab environments and reports within the tight time windows of cloud-native development.
As APIs become more complex, it can be easy to accidentally break connections. To prevent this, Speedscale can automatically detect and make you aware of inbound and outbound transactions running through APIs in our API Dependency Graph. The Traffic Viewer dashboard makes this information visible to independent teams working on different services. In most organizations this information is usually only known by senior engineers, team leads, and architects.
