Sep 3, 2025 By Todd H. Gardner In CertKit
SSL Certificates have always been a pain in the butt. From the magical OpenSSL incantations to generate a CSR to the various formats that each webserver requires. Remembering what hardware needs which certificates. Managing scheduled renewals and runbooks for which file goes where. Screw anything up and your site is “Not Secure”. And now Apple wants us to do it every 47 days. Remember when we had HTTP-only websites? Or when certificates lasted three years? Then one?

Top 3 Jira reporting tools: SquaredUp vs Power BI vs Jira

Sep 3, 2025 By Blog In Squared Up
A recent survey revealed that developers and engineering teams waste 8+ hours a week on inefficiencies in their role.

Sep 3, 2025 By Grace Nalini In Site24x7
When an application slows down, users rarely think about the database—but in many cases, that’s where the bottleneck lies. Databases sit at the core of nearly every application, storing, retrieving, and processing the information that powers business transactions, analytics, and user interactions.
