What are microservices?
Applications are traditionally built as a monolith. This usually means that any small change to the client-side user interface or the server-side application has to be rolled out as a new version. And when you’re scaling up, the entire application has to be scaled up, even if there’s higher demand only for some aspects of […]
Internet of Behaviour
We all know what the internet of things is. It’s a network of devices that collects data, analyses it, and lets users control their devices remotely (in simple terms).

Thriving 5 months of remote work
Last month we crossed the 100-day mark on our work from home scenario.

Ethical dilemmas of modern day tech: Part two
I am not a big fan of dystopian novels( they almost always make me very angry). But I’ve always been impressed by the way they present historical events and draw parallels with current events.
