In this blog post, we will: We will also look at how to leverage Datadog to protect your infrastructure and applications.
It seems that every few weeks, we are alerted to a new significant security issue within one of the plethoras of code elements that are widely used. The same pundits discuss the same range of concerns with open-sourced code each time. The list of “usual suspects” is long, and I know I could add at least 20 additional “reasons” to this list without thinking about it too hard. I’m not sure that open-sourced code is riskier than proprietary developed code. There I said it.

This is the first part of a blog post series about bytecode transformations on Android. In this part we’ll cover different approaches to bytecode manipulation in Java as well as how to make it work with Android and the Android Gradle plugin. In the next two parts we’ll dive into the actual bytecode, bytecode instructions and how we can modify the bytecode and inject our own instructions, using Room as an example.
When your application starts to grow, one of the essential factors to consider while scaling is memory management. Poor memory management leads to memory leaks, thus affecting application performance. When the performance degrades, it will directly affect the business. So, it is essential to look out for and fix memory leaks in time. This blog post will look at what memory leaks are and how to avoid them in Node.js applications.
