Mobile Learning: How it Transforms The Modern Classroom and Training

Mobile learning consists of learning on the go, via your smartphone or tablet. In a business setting, mobile learning offers the possibility for employees to follow their training wherever they are, with online courses and other content being accessible at all times. This learning method is available on many learning management system (LMS) platforms but, as we will see later, it is necessary to be vigilant in the choice of the latter because mobile learning comes with some technical constraints.

What Is GraphQL? A Simplified Overview of Use and Benefits

The use of APIs is at the forefront of automation. There are many ways for developers and applications to make use of APIs, and GraphQL is one way to make the most of the data. As technologies continue to grow and evolve, especially with drivers like the DevOps methodology, it is important to keep on top of better and quicker ways to meet our business goals. This is one of the reasons I find GraphQL to be so exciting, and why everyone should understand it.

Predictions: AI and Automation

Artificial Intelligence (AI) - or more specifically Machine Learning (ML) - and automation were big topics for many of our customers in 2022. Common reasons for the interest in AI and automation were to: increase efficiency, reduce manual processing, minimise human error and - especially for the use of ML - identify ‘unknown unknowns’.

Adopt open source securely from bare metal to cloud

It’s no secret that developers prefer to use open-source software in their projects. However, the Log4Shell attack or the more recent PyPl crypto miner packages have taught us that there are questions around how it should be managed. At Canonical we have been dealing with open-source security issues since the very first release of Ubuntu and way before the topic became number 1 on every CISO priority list. In this video, our team discusses how your company can manage these challenges and lay the software foundation of a successful cybersecurity program.

Domain Agnostic vs Domain Centric vs Data-Centric AIOps - A Complete Guide for Beginners & Decision Makers

AIOps, or artificial intelligence for IT operations, uses AI and ML technologies alongside big data, data integration and automation to help make IT operations smarter and more predictive. AIOps has come around as a response to a pressing need for optimizing operations and minimizing risks to the IT infrastructure in the modern IT ecosystem.

Using Playwright to Monitor Third-Party Resources That Could Impact User Experience

Today’s web consists of lots of 3rd party resources. Let it be your fonts, transformed and optimized media assets, or analytics and ad scripts, many sites out there include resources that they don’t own. Your website probably has a lot of those dependencies, too! And while implementing third-party resources has downsides for performance and you should self-host your assets when possible, sometimes relying on external files is unavoidable.

A Guide to Using ARM Stack Limit Registers

Stack overflows have notoriously plagued the development processes. They often can go undetected and can present themselves in obscure ways. We have implemented software mechanisms to protect against them, but these have limitations and still don’t protect against all conditions. With the maturity of the ARM architecture, wouldn’t it be better to have a fool-proof mechanism for detecting overflows?
