"Yesterday, James Ward, developer advocate at Typesafe, presented a webinar on building Reactive Apps with the Typesafe Platform. For those of you who missed out, or simply want to rewatch and share the session with friends and colleagues, we recorded James' presentation for your viewing pleasure!"

A new "Least Time" load-balancing algorithm Full-featured TCP load balancing High availability and failover between NGINX Plus instances A new statistics dashboard and improved monitoring Support for SSL authentication of email traffic (IMAP, POP3, and SMTP)

"Project Honey Pot is the first and only distributed system for identifying spammers and the spambots they use to scrape addresses from your website. Using the Project Honey Pot system you can install addresses that are custom-tagged to the time and IP address of a visitor to your site. If one of these addresses begins receiving email we not only can tell that the messages are spam, but also the exact moment when the address was harvested and the IP address that gathered it."

"What is the reason to quote at all? Consider it. It shouldn't be to allow people to scroll down to see all earlier discussions. If the news client is a bit smart, fetching the older articles from the server should be just as easy as to "scroll down". If a thread goes forth and back some times and earlier quotes accumulate, an article including all those quotes might get five-ten times larger than a posting without quotes, this wastes bandwidth and hard disk space. Therefore, IMHO, no quotes are far better than a posting at the top of all old quotes."

"New Relic open sourced Centurion, a deployment tool for Docker used internally to run their production infrastructure. Centurion takes containers from a Docker registry and runs them on a fleet of hosts with the correct environment variables, host volume mappings, and port mappings, supporting rolling deployments out of the box."

"Everything at Google, from Search to Gmail, is packaged and run in a Linux container," explained Eric Brewer, vice president of infrastructure at the Internet search giant, in announcing the open sourcing of Kubernetes. "Each week we launch more than 2 billion container instances across our global data centers, and the power of containers has enabled both more reliable services and higher, more-efficient scalability."

"Docker is fast becoming one of the hottest technologies under development. Released just a year ago, the open source project for creating virtualised application containers has already caused major cloud players, from Red Hat to Google, to rethink how applications can be delivered, run, and managed, especially in cloud environments."

"Clocker features: Automatically create and manage multiple Docker hosts in cloud infrastructure Intelligent container placement, providing: resilience fault tolerance easy scaling maximum resource utilisation of hosts maximum application performance Use of any public or private cloud as the underlying infrastructure for Docker Hosts Deployment of existing Brooklyn/CAMP blueprints to Docker locations, without modification."

"Join Elastic developer Nicholas Knize to get an introduction to Elasticsearch's geospatial capabilities. He will give you a whirlwind tour of how to use Elasticsearch to make the most of your geo data and do things like: Indexing considerations for optimizing geo-point and geo-shape based search Geo-aggregations and bucket reducers for spatial visualization and analytics Time-based indexing, aliasing, and percolation for complex space-time querying But how does Elasticsearch compare to traditional solutions for geospatial search? John Boere, CEO of Cliffhanger Solutions Inc., will share his geospatial search story, giving you insight into their setup, lessons learned, and why they chose to use Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana to help utility companies manage electricity flowing through the power grid - keeping the lights on, literally."

"Some of the topmost brands have recently ditched native and gone the hybrid way. With the new hybrid frameworks like Ionic, Phonegap etc becoming more mature, one cannot assume that hybrid apps perform worse anymore. In fact, a recent Gartner report says that by next year more developers will be going the hybrid way and by another account, the average end user ratings of hybrid apps are already 12 percent better than native apps."

"JavaScript is evolving and new ES2015 and ES2016 editions (previously known as ES6 and ES7, respectively) pack a bunch of new features and Babel makes it very easy to use of them today. These features make some previously essential functions from utility libraries obsolete."

Why a transition to microservices and cloud development is necessary and why monolithic architectures aren't an option anymore. How to implement Docker in a cloud and continuously integrated environment and what the typical Docker-run applications look like. How NGINX and NGINX Plus can help support your migration to the modern way of building, deploying, and scaling applications.
