With automation pervading the networking world in recent years, APIs have become standard for software and IT specialists. While the jury is out on the exact number of public APIs offered today, all estimates point to their massive (and ever-growing) popularity. Megaport is one of the many thousands of vendors that provides public API access to all our services, enabling our customers to automate and streamline their deployments.

Apache Spark, a framework for parallel distributed data processing, has become a popular choice for building streaming applications, data lake houses and big data extract-transform-load data processing (ETL). It is horizontally scalable, fault-tolerant, and performs well at high scale.

When planning a migration from Heroku to AWS, it’s essential to grasp the complexities inherent in transitioning from a managed Platform as a Service (PaaS) like Heroku to the intricacies of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provided by AWS. This shift demands not just an adaptation to a different architectural framework but also a strategic approach to overcome operational and technical challenges that can significantly affect both performance and cost efficiency.

Businesses are increasingly interested in cloud economics. For instance, what are the financial implications of moving to the cloud versus staying on-premises?
