Kubernetes is THE buzzword these days. Almost every IT organization is currently using it or is in the process of implementing it as part of their infrastructure. The transition to Kubernetes is complicated, whether a company is using an on-premises, cloud, hybrid, or managed solution, and it usually involves other changes in the codebase, such as shifting to a microservices architecture. While the implementation phase is led by the DevOps team, it requires the participation of the whole R&D group.

Hands down, by far the most popular choices today for native application development are C and C++. Okay, maybe not the most popular, but definitely the most prevalent. Some might even say “inevitable.”
Python performance measurement tools help us to identify performance bottlenecks in our app. This allows us to focus on the business logic as opposed to writing custom code, setting it up with our app, and then figuring out whether the results are accurate enough. These tools are well tested by the open source community and used by many companies to measure the performance of their web apps.
