Enterprise Package Management for Everyone

Suppose you asked developers in the mid-2000s how they managed and compiled their binaries. You’d probably hear some anxiety-inducing answers (e.g., storing packages in git repositories or insecure file stores). Thankfully, organizations currently have various options for managing their first or third-party packages, dependencies, and containers.

Introducing a leaner and more flexible config (and support for custom hosts!)

To make the developer experience as smooth as possible, we are simplifying the onboarding process. Howso? By making the Upsun configuration files optional (zero configuration!). Due to popular demands, we’re also giving you a simple way to control custom DNS entries directly in the YAML configuration files (see below). Previously, if you started from one of our many ready-to-use templates, those YAML files were automatically included.

How does a DNS work?

DNS resolution is the first step taken to form an internet connection. This includes when any device is being used to access a website or any type of internet-enabled application, such as e-commerce, CRM, or food delivery. These applications are connected to the internet via IP-backbone, which is typically controlled by a protocol named BGP (Border Gateway Protocol). Each application has a unique numbering schema on the internet, referred to as IP address.

Best practices for network perimeter security in cloud-native environments

Cloud-native infrastructure has become the standard for deploying applications that are performant and readily available to a globally distributed user base. While this has enabled organizations to quickly adapt to the demands of modern app users, the rapid nature of this migration has also made cloud resources a primary target for security threats.

3 Ways You Might Have an NOC Process Hangover

NOC, or network operation center, processes have been set in stone for decades. But it’s time for some of these processes to evolve. Digital transformation and the cloud era have led to the rise of DevOps, and with it, service ownership. Service ownership means that developers take responsibility for supporting the software they deliver at every stage of the life cycle. This brings development teams closer to their customers, the business, and the value they deliver.
