This article would not be possible without the contribution of Lars Stegman. The OPC UA Client Listener Plugin was his own contribution to a long-standing issue. Telegraf now includes a new plugin highly anticipated by the community. The OPC UA Client Listener Plugin. So you might be asking yourself: what is the big deal? There was already an OPC UA Plugin — how is this different?
React Native has become the predominant development framework for cross-platform mobile applications. By interacting with native APIs largely under the hood and requiring only a fractional proportion of platform-specific code, it allows you to build applications for iOS, Android, and the browser using the same declarative JavaScript. But this cross-platform adaptability has its downsides.
Before I dive into the launch of Cycle’s latest feature (and it’s a big one!) I want to share some context about how we got here. Let’s rewind back to 2015: containers, at least in their modern form, had just begun to take the developer ecosystem by storm. At the same time, we at Cycle were watching everything unfold: from Docker’s meteoric rise to the first few releases of tools like Kubernetes, Rancher, and so on.
Mattermost v7.5 is generally available today. The following new features are included (see changelog for more details).
As part of the Grafana 9.2 release, we’re making it easier to create dynamic and interactive dashboards with a new and improved Grafana Loki query variable editor. Templating is a great option if you don’t want to deal with hard-coding certain elements in your queries, like the names of specific servers or applications. Previously, you had to remember and enter specific syntax in order to run queries on label names or values.
Hybrid and remote work is now the status quo. Companies campaigning for workers to return to the office are facing resistance, with some employers finding that they’re losing employees to jobs that give prospective hires the flexibility they want. Flexible work models have become a competitive advantage in a strained labor market. According to the latest Future of Work report from Accenture, 63% of high-growth companies have adopted a “productivity anywhere” workforce model.
If you’re writing software today, then you likely use a CI/CD pipeline to build and test your code before deploying it to production. Having a fast and efficient build pipeline saves you development time, shortens feedback loops, and helps you ship features faster. Conversely, slow and unreliable build pipelines are full of lost productivity and sadness.
We are pleased to announce two new patch releases for CFEngine, version 3.15.7 and 3.18.3! These releases mainly contain bug fixes and dependency updates.
