The Compounding (Business) Value of Composable Ecosystems
Being “free” and open source doesn’t hinder the value of these projects to businesses and end users; rather it unlocks it. The composability of open source ecosystems allows the innovation and value of the whole ecosystem to compound on itself.

Developing a Cloud-Native Application on Microsoft Azure Using Open Source Technologies
Cloud native is a development approach that improves building, maintainability, scalability, and deployment of applications. My intention with this article is to explain, in a pragmatic way, how to build, deploy, run, and monitor a simple cloud-native application on Microsoft Azure using open-source technologies.

Reduce Carbon Dioxide Emissions with Serverless and Kubernetes Native Java
Moving application workloads to multi- and hybrid cloud platforms causes more carbon dioxide emissions, although better scalability and performance. Serverless and Kubernetes Native Java enable developers to solve the global climate changes by reducing carbon dioxide emissions by natively native features with milliseconds first boot time, tiny resident set size memory and scalability.

Article Series: Native Compilation Boosts Java
Java dominates enterprise applications. But in the cloud, Java is more expensive than some competitors. Native compilation makes Java in the cloud cheaper. It raises many questions for all Java users: How does native Java change development? When should we switch to native Java? When should we not? And what framework should we use for native Java? This series provides answers to these questions.

Kubernetes Native Java with Quarkus
Quarkus is an industry leader in startup time and memory utilization for native and JVM-based Java applications. This reduces cloud costs. Kubernetes is a first-class deployment platform in Quarkus with support for its primitives and features. Developers can use their Java knowledge of APIs like Jakarta EE, MicroProfile, Spring, etc. Applications can be imperative or reactive - or both!

Kubernetes Crosses the Chasm, and Other Lessons from the 2021 CNCF Survey
You know I love a good survey, so let’s take a look at the Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s 2021 annual survey. They asked 2,302 respondents how they use Kubernetes and the more general category of cloud-native tools. The major conclusion of the report is that Kubernetes usage is mainstream, as the sub-title of the report labeled 2021: “The year Kubernetes crossed the chasm.”
