In today's hyper-competitive digital world, software is no longer a basic, single thing. We live in a world with distributed architectures, microservices, cloud-native environments, and complicated API ecosystems. This complexity has changed how we produce things, but it has also broken down conventional, walled-off ways of ensuring quality, pushing the boundaries of traditional software testing services.

In 2023, the EU introduced measures to ensure there will be focus on the gender pay gap and at the same time strengthen employee rights, especially for companies that have more than 100 employees.

Every year, KubeCon offers a candid look at where the cloud-native community stands — the tools gaining traction, the pain points teams share, and the big gaps still holding organizations back. After a week of deep conversations, session hopping, and talking to dozens of platform teams, one theme became impossible to ignore: Platform engineering still isn’t doing enough testing. And even more surprising: many teams don’t think testing is their responsibility.

It’s a common idea across the tech industry: AI is fueling a new wave of technological innovation. Test automation is no exception. Over three decades, enterprise QA customers have turned to Tricentis Tosca to transform inefficient testing practices with model-based automation. Now, the company you’ve relied on for scalable, codeless test automation is entering a new era of agentic testing with Tosca’s cloud deployment as its foundation.

Cowboy is a small, fast, and modern HTTP server for Erlang/OTP. It particularly shines when handling multiple concurrent connections with minimal overhead. This makes it a perfect choice for building lightweight, real-time streaming services. In this article, we’ll build a tiny real-time text pub/sub server using Cowboy. Our service supports HTTP-based publishing, allowing clients to subscribe using either WebSockets or Server-Sent Events (SSE).

‍ Healthcare isn’t broken because of a lack of technology. It’s broken because most of the tech running hospitals today is outdated, overloaded, or barely held together with patches.

Across hospitals and clinics, staff shortages, burnout, and scheduling chaos are threatening the quality of care and driving operational costs upward. The U.S. alone is projected to face a shortfall of up to 3.2 million healthcare workers by 2026, according to Mercer.
