CloudFormation vs. Terraform . a There is a time when every project that uses a cloud computing service has a difficult choice to make - should we automate the infrastructure or not? Immediately after, another question pops up - how should we do it? Should we use a dedicated tool ( AWS CloudFormation , Azure Resource Templates , OpenStack Heat or Google Cloud Deployment Manager ) or a provider-agnostic solution? And then - immedia....

One of the biggest pain points in Codename One is theming, there are several things we did to alleviate the problem but it’s an inherently complex problem. One difficulty people have is in the disconnect between what we see in the UI and the styling in the designer. This creates a disconnect that is often hard to bridge. In the past we added the Component Inspector tool to the simulator that allows you to discover the UIID’s of the variou..

We’ve all filled out those fields on forms - First name, Last name, Address, Gender - without thinking about the information. Imagine what it is like not to be able to put the right information down. It’s like you’re a Cat, and the options are Dog and Penguin - there is not only no option to identify as yourself, the two options you’re given don’t reflect you at all.

Since I haven’t blogged in a while a lot of stuff has piled up on my desk and I’ll get it out in batches in this post I’ll go over a few of the bigger changes we did while I was away on the bootcamp and also give you a bit of an update on what we’ve been doing within the bootcamp itself. The week before we launched the bootcamp our Mac build servers reached a very heavy workload, this was becoming disruptive to our general developer popul..

Most companies still have a separate corporate network, protected by firewalls, intrusion prevention/detection, dedicated administrators, VPNs, etc. Why is it that I can access information which is the most important, private, and precious to me, from any computer, via any network, without all that extra cost, complexity, overhead, and effort?

We are on a mid-bootcamp break so the blog is back to life during this time (and there is so much to write!), more on that tomorrow but for now I’d like to write about fixing & tracking issues with the designer (resource editor) and the GUI builder. Both of these tools have issues most of which revolve around their connection to the IDE. The reason for this is that they are external tools that aren’t a part of the IDE, this allows us to s..

Edit: looking back at this post from a few years back, it does look incredibly naive but still leaving this up - still a a few good links Back in the (not-so-distant) days, if you wanted to have some online software — to manage your invoices or your customers — or any kind of business management solution — you had to have your own servers for your company and install-and-configure the hell out of it.

When I talk to people about the Internet – the first reaction is always : “Yes! Today you have no choice”. Then when I dig a little deeper – you hear the real stories. The “Yes… but…” – not in our industry – people are not buying online really – the market is not ready – it is still early So first, who is connected? Look, in case you haven’t noticed but everyone is.

UPDATE: I’m leaving this series up for historical purposes, but please note that I no longer recommend Ubuntu Core or snaps for use in robotics. My background is pretty heavily littered with robotics. A natural side effect of this is that I’ve published numerous posts discussing snaps, Ubuntu Core, and different robotics frameworks (ROS and MOOS specifically). But my robotics experience was professional, which meant I didn’t really have a r..

At Cerner, we use Chef. In fact, we’re heavily ingrained with Chef in our configuration management practices. We deploy services from Tomcat to Kafka with Chef. Even the first open source project we announced was a tool for Chef! With all of this integration with Chef, we need a simple way to manage all of those versions. This is where the Version Databag cookbook comes in. At a high level, this cookbook allows us to define our versions in ..

If you wanted a fast computer back in 1976, you bought the 5.5 ton, $9 million Cray-1 made by Cray Research. The Cray-1 was dubbed the first supercomputer as it was designed to be much faster than other (more massive) computers of the time. It was incredibly successful in the large computing space and Cray subsequently released a much faster model called the Cray X-MP in 1983 (shown in the picture at the top of this post).
