Product Development Is the Lynchpin Between Digital Transformation and DevOps

Digital Transformation and DevOps are overused buzzwords. Yuck. But that doesn’t mean you should use them. In fact, they should be used together because are directly related to product development. DevOps Research and Assessment’s (DORA) ongoing research with Puppet Labs says that some of the most statistically […]

Increased use of containers on Windows Servers
April 14, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Proof of Containers on Windows Servers

In less than a year, the percentage of container users running containers on Windows hosts has risen from 9 percent to 29 percent. Portworx’s 2017 survey cleverly used a few identical questions from a ClusterHQ/DevOps.com survey we wrote about in 2016. The huge rise in adoption is too big […]

2017: 21% of web developers prioritize angular vs 9% for React
April 7, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

React vs. Angular Take 2

React is a library with Facebook roots. Angular is a Google-spawned framework. There is abundant analysis comparing them and, in general, it shows that Angular trails, with Vue.js getting significant buzz. Yet, since AngularJS 2 was a significant rewrite, you should not conflate declining use of the original Angular with […]

Software performance problems are less frequent in 2017
March 31, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

What Performance Problem?

Finding the root cause of a performance problem is a time suck, but is it truly a pain point that you need to buy more software to resolve? We can’t answer that question, but a new report from DZone indicates that general challenges with performance monitoring may […]

Correlated Technologies: focus on TypeScript
March 24, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

TypeScript, TypeScript, TypeScript

We’ve been actively covering TypeScript but it wasn’t until recently that we saw stats showing just how popular it is. Stack Overflow added this JavaScript superset to its Developer Survey 2017, and boom — it is being used by 9.5 percent of developers, making it the ninth most used language […]

Satisfaction With Monitoring Strategy
March 17, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Expectations Around Monitoring Have Changed

BigPanda’s recent State of Monitoring report provides an analysis that reflects on strategic monitoring, development and why satisfaction is decreasing. The cause for dissatisfaction looks to be rooted in the pace of software development. IT pros say they get more alerts than ever. Code deployments are more likely to […]

2016: Roles Go developers are working in
March 10, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Go & DevOps

A recent survey of Go programmers proves once again that Go is at the center of the DevOps world. While web development is a common use, 38 percent of Go developers do systems programming and 35 percent said they work in DevOps. While Go adoption may not […]

Which languages do you use? chart compares men and women
March 3, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Are woman devs pigeon-holed?

No matter how you look at gender, the percentage of women in IT varies depending on the study. Yet, in some ways, it doesn’t matter if the figure is 5 percent or 25 percent, the statistic still obscure hard truths. For example, when women join a programming team, […]

integration of cloud and SaaS applications
February 24, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

SaaS/Cloud Integration

iPaaS (integration platform as a service) offerings have been touted for a while, but have so far not reached a broad level adoption. Perhaps this is because of limited demand for Boomi or open source WSO2. Maybe integration by its very nature requires manual, custom […]

Automation of workloads in cloud environments
February 23, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Automation Is Still Hand-coded

A year ago, most users of containers were not using orchestration tools, but instead relied on custom scripts, CLIs and perhaps their configuration management solutions. Those were supposedly early adopters. Six months ago an UBM/Interop ITX report, based on a broader base of general cloud computing users, found […]

35% of SQL Server pros are building DB deployments scripts, but 52% are responsible for actual changes
February 11, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Need Database DevOps

Remember why DevOps came into existence? A recent survey of SQL Server users by Redgate proves once again there is a disconnect between those creating and managing production applications. Although 60 percent of developers write scripts to deploy databases, only 39 percent are actually responsible for the […]

What are your biggest pain points in the CD pipeline?
February 3, 2017February 14, 2025Published in The New Stack Update

Ouch, Configs Hurt CD Pipeline

Fifty-six percent of developers surveyed for DZone’s Guide to DevOps: Continuous Delivery and Automation say environment configuration and set-up is the biggest pain point in the continuous delivery (CD) pipeline. Complained about much less often (34 percent) is coordination of team members, which is likely related to […]
