Development

Argo Workflows is a K8s native workflow engine that allows you to run all kinds of workflows in Kubernetes by leveraging native resources, such as K8s Pods, to execute the individual steps of the workflow. Workflows can be kicked off in all kinds of ways, which – along with the enormous range of customizations possible – is what makes Argo Workflows such a versatile tool for running cloud-native workflows.

ML elements of applications often require a significant amount of processing time. Learn how to speed up your microservice-based ML app with asynchronous networking and in-memory data caching in this post.

Curious what 2023 has in store for software development? Here are ten trends that we predict will be at the forefront in the coming year.

Golang is arguably the best choice of language for writing cloud native applications. In this post we quickly cover Golang’s strengths, and then create a sample blog application that combines synchronous and asynchronous networking for distinct workflows within the app.

Goroutines provide a means for multiprocessing in a Golang application, allowing multiple processes to run simultaneously. In addition, Channels and WaitGroups enable passing data between threads or blocking one thread until another completes. In this post, we explore examples of each.

In this article, we explain what a development environment is, why you need one, and some best practices for a reliable development environment.

Investing in developer experience not only cultivates a team of happy engineers, but it encourages innovation, improves agility, and increases development velocity. If you are looking to improve DX at your organization, here are five places to start.

As part of the LF Live series, Velocity recently teamed up with the Linux Foundation to host a webinar about different methods and tools to build and manage multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters. Watch the recording here.

Request-response based networking in microservice architectures can result in unwanted latency in your cloud native application. Learn the basics of event-driven architectures built with Redis as a way to increase your application’s processing speed in this post.

Kubernetes init containers provide a means of configuring an environment in K8s for an application to run that doesn’t require changing the application’s source code. In this post, we discuss how init containers work, when you would use one, and show an example in a sample app.

In this post, we've identified two relatively straight-forward ways to allow local services to talk to remotely running services.

We did some research into different environment setups across industries, and in this post we share what we learned together with some of our own best practices that help configure environments for Velocity.
