One of the key benefits of the Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) approach is the level of control network service providers can pass on to their enterprise customers and partners. In this blog, we look at the role that hyperautomation is playing in the provisioning and management of networks...

When the CTO of this growing company (freshly acquired by a billion-dollar company) contacted me, he was concerned by the ability of his team to deliver what they committed to for the current year. His main issue was 15 engineers working in the same development environment. Can you imagine developing on the same workstation? Things will get worst as they plan to quadruple their engineering team size in the next 18 months.

On Nov 13, 2019 Github made it’s CI/CD solution GitHub Actions generally available to the world. Since then tens of thousands of shared workflows have been published. It is now the default for most Github projects given how easy it is to integrate with an existing repo. Projects of all sizes have adopted it from our homegrown Terraform module to the Docker Cli. This is why at Speedscale we’ve published a template for how to use Speedscale in conjunction with GitHub Actions.

Has your team worked on an API and wanted (somehow) to implement more powerful security features? If you are dissatisfied with the level of security in an API, there are solutions for improving it! In this tutorial, I will lead you through the process of creating API endpoints that are secured with authentication tokens. Using these endpoints, we will be able to make requests to the Flask API only for authenticated users.

One of the most notable advantages of the Cloud is the ability to scale resources to meet demand. We then scale out or up when the demand increases, and we scale in or down when the demand decreases. For the record, scaling out / in refers to increasing or decreasing the number of instances of a given resource, whereas scaling up / down refers to increasing or decreasing the capacity (CPU, Ram, Disk, I/O performance) or a given instance.
