The upcoming SmartNICs Trends for 2023

Modern network infrastructure is in a state of constant evolution to meet the ever-growing demand for improvements in fields like connectivity parameters, infrastructure flexibility, or overall power consumption. Innovators on the market are trying to answer all those needs, and with this article, we would like to shed light on some of the trends resulting from those efforts. SmartNICs extend the boring NIC domain with “smart” elements. Different platforms can define their “smart” elements differently, but overall, those elements aim to improve the general parameters of network connections, reduce power consumption, and increase the flexibility of network infrastructure.

Golang errors and how to handle them

Many programming languages base their error handling around exceptions. Some of them use exceptions when handling abnormal situations, while others use exceptions as a normal redirection in a control flow. For example, an object in Python throws the StopIteration exception when the iterator is exhausted. Go has a rather unique way of handling errors that is very different from the traditional focus on exceptions. In this article, I’ll take a closer look at Go errors and describe how handling them differs from dealing with this issue in other programming languages.

Benefits of microservices. What should you know?

According to O’Reilly<sup>1</sup>, only 8% of businesses have no success with microservices. The rest notice at least some improvements. That many satisfied customers is the best proof that microservices are worth your attention and time if you want to bring your projects to the next level. This article will focus on how microservices can positively impact your business and how they can accelerate software development time. Microservices Architecture is a mode of development that focuses on developing a system as a set of small services.

Microservices. The real deal or a grand delusion?

According to Statista, in 2021, 85% of respondents (organizations employing a minimum of 5,000 employees) claim that they use microservices. Doubtless, adopting microservices can seriously benefit an organization and visibly improve the quality of the products and services it develops. However, it is crucial to do so properly to see positive results. This article will highlight the most important aspects you should be aware of before implementing microservices architecture into the organization. Microservices architecture, as stated by Fowler, "Microservices is a subset of SOA (service-oriented architecture) with the value being that it allows us to put a label on this useful subset of SOA terminology.

How to build masonry layout in 5 minutes?

Have you ever heard of the so-called masonry layout, as seen on Pinterest? In short, it consists of elements of unequal size stacked one after the other in the direction of the line. As they move to the next line, the items will move into the gaps left by the smaller items in the previous line. Preparing this type of layout is not a simple task. In 2010, David DeSandro implemented the 'Masonry' library to create this type of layout (Masonry library). However, the implementation of this layout is pretty complicated.

Enzyme vs React Testing Library — what to choose?

When developers work on frontend applications, there is a lot of manual testing of written code, to make sure that everything works well in the UI. This process is time-consuming, and we want to make sure that after we finish the work on the feature, it behaves as expected - this is where tests come into play. This article will compare two popular component testing tools for React applications - Enzyme and React Testing Library. At the end of 2015, EnzymeJS was released to the public and started getting traction immediately.

Top 10 frontend frameworks for software development

Frontend frameworks are a huge advantage while developing a website or an app. They are structures that will help you create an outstanding user experience, satisfy your clients and boost your business. Frameworks provide templates to interact with and are compatible with various libraries, which results in boosting your performance and, at the same time, reducing the amount of code required. However, with so many options to choose from it is easy to get overwhelmed. In this article we will present the top 10 frontend frameworks and their main features to help you choose the perfect one for your project.

Axios vs. Fetch API — which is better for HTTP requests?

Whether making a network request for cat photos or network latency data, we need a tool that allows us to perform such operations. Retrieving or modifying API data from a server is a vital part of most web applications. Use cases include: loading user information, receiving updates from the server,and many, many more. In this article, we'll compare two of the most widely-used options for making HTTP requests - Axios and Fetch. If you've worked with JavaScript lately, there's a good chance you worked with Axios.

Dealing with private repositories, Go modules, Docker and CircleCI

While developing one of our recent projects, as a team, we decided to implement our microservices application in the mono repository. This idea allows us to sync versions between services easily, even in one commit. However, we’re not keeping this solution for ourselves. Seeing great value in it, we open-sourced one of the microservices for the community. We decided to change our private GitHub repository to be open to the public when we were ready, but before we had to find answers to questions like:
