BellSoft issued a new version of Liberica Native Image Kit (NIK), 22.0.0.2, so in this short article, I will provide a tutorial on how to use it with the Quarkus framework.
Liberica NIK is based on the open-source project GraalVM (Community Edition) and is compatible with many platforms, including lightweight musl-based Alpine Linux. Liberica NIK in essence is a utility that converts JVM-based applications into native executables (AOT compilation).
It’s that time of year again when we get the Red Hat Summit 2022 call for papers!
This year seemed to be a perfect time to go all in with sessions around our architectures based on a series of talks we’ve designed to showcase the various aspects we cover. Some are vertical aligned and others are just customer domains, but all of them include extensive research into how to implement successful architectures at scale.

NoSQL data sets arose in the latter part of the 2000s as the expense of storage drastically diminished. The days of expecting to create a complicated, hard to-oversee data model to avoid data replication were long gone and the primary expense of programming and development was now focused on the developers themselves, and hence NoSQL databases were brought into the picture to enhance their productivity.
As storage costs quickly diminished, the measure of data that applications expected to store increased, and the query expanded as well. This data was received in all shapes and sizes — organized, semi-organized, and polymorphic — and characterizing the schema ahead of time turned out to be almost incomprehensible. NoSQL databases permitted the developers to store colossal measures of unstructured data, providing them with a ton of flexibility.
Is observability mission critical at this point? The folks at New Relic think so. And they’re not alone, according to their recent whitepaper on observability 90% of respondents believe observability is strategically important to their business. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to understand what’s going on within software development organizations.
New Relic’s GVP & GM Buddy Brewer and SVP Greg Perotto join the podcast to discuss observability best practices, how to avoid data silos, the value of telemetry across the entire software life cycle and the five key insights of New Relic’s Observability Forecast.
Apache Kafka became the de facto standard for processing data in motion across enterprises and industries. Cybersecurity is a key success factor across all use cases. Kafka is not just used as a backbone and source of truth for data. It also monitors, correlates, and proactively acts on events from real-time and batch data sources to detect anomalies and respond to incidents. This blog series explores use cases and architectures for Kafka in the cybersecurity space, including situational awareness, threat intelligence, forensics, air-gapped and zero trust environments, and SIEM/SOAR modernization. This post is part six: SIEM/SOAR Modernization.
This blog series explores why security features such as RBAC, encryption, and audit logs are only the foundation of a secure event streaming infrastructure. Learn about use cases, architectures, and reference deployments for Kafka in the cybersecurity space:
Sept ans après l’annonce du lancement de son programme de mobilité électrique, SAP Labs France renforce ses équipes R&D pour répondre au succès grandissant de sa solution de supervision SAP E-Mobility. Le vecteur reste le même : stimuler, soutenir et accompagner l’innovation du Groupe.
Aux prémices du projet, uniquement deux développeurs de SAP Labs France dans le développement du logiciel open source SAP e-mobility. Aujourd’hui, l’équipe R&D dédiée à cette solution, compte 18 talents en IoT, croisant hardware et software, répartis à Mougins (15) et Caen (3). Une première pour SAP !
Le logiciel SAP E-Mobility permet de combiner et de connecter les bornes de recharges des véhicules électriques à d’autres modules SAP tels que des modules de pricing, d’itinérance, de smart charging, d’ERP, tout en prenant en considération les sources de production et de consommation d’électricité de l’infrastructure. Son développement rapide s’explique entre autres par le soutien du Groupe à travers l’investissement global de deux milliards d’euros. Mais, aussi par l’attrait de son offre qui a séduit rapidement les partenaires et clients de SAP.
Aujourd’hui SAP Labs France propose sa solution aux entreprises de toutes tailles. Par exemples, Proviridis, ChargeX GmbH en Allemagne et Zeplug à Paris. L’objectif est de répondre à la demande de recharge (charge at work /charge at home).
Cette solution offre à ses clients la possibilité de :
“Si demain tous les véhicules en France, soit environ 40 millions de voitures, devenaient des véhicules 100% électriques, nous ne rencontrerions aucun problème d’un point de vue électrique. Mais plutôt des difficultés au niveau gestion. Pour cela nous avons besoin d’outils qui savent gérer toute cette énergie, pour appliquer une charge intelligente “smart charging”, prenant en compte l’électricité qui circule dans le réseau. De plus, toutes les entreprises ont besoin d’intégrer ces informations à leurs systèmes existants pour connaître les avantages en nature.” Hanno Klausmeier, Président SAP Labs France
SAP se positionne progressivement sur d’autres domaines plus éloignés de la borne de recharge électrique. Par exemples, les panneaux solaires et l’IA en collaboration avec l’institut Vedecom pour à terme proposer une solution allant au-delà de la supervision des bornes. Ainsi, l’objectif est de les rendre plus autonomes pour trouver les erreurs ou encore gérer les pannes automatiquement.
“Grâce à l’intelligence artificielle nous souhaitons rendre les bornes plus autonomes et accessibles. Dans un futur proche nous espérons pouvoir activer la borne de recharge dès son branchement sans avoir recours à la SAP charge card.” Hanno Klausmeier Président SAP Labs France.
Cette solution est pour l’instant uniquement proposée par SAP Labs France. Cependant, SAP a pour ambition de la commercialiser à l’échelle globale du Groupe d’ici le troisième trimestre 2021.

In a previous post I wrote about the uncompromising artistry of Stanley Kubrick, who produced film classics at the cost of wildly unpredictable schedules and budgets. You can reach for similar brilliance in programming, but you had better do it on your own time or with a generous CFO. There is a different, more workable, and healthier attitude towards our craft. Just keep at it, enjoy it, and don’t worry about making a dent in the universe. I’m reading Woody Allen’s autobiography over the holidays, so indulge me to draw another cinematic parallel with this veteran New York writer/director. Don’t worry, it will also be about coding.
Woody Allen is one of the most consistently prolific cinematographers in the business. He has written and directed over fifty films over an equal number of years, almost like clockwork. At 85 he has no intention of stopping. He doesn’t approach his oeuvre as a project with a culmination. His business is about keeping busy. He is in it for the long run, if only to act as an antidote to the unavoidable spectre of death and oblivion. But let’s not get into his glum outlook on the meaning of life.
The rise of data in motion in the insurance industry is visible across all lines of business, including life, healthcare, travel, vehicle, and others. Apache Kafka changes how enterprises rethink data. This blog post explores use cases and architectures for event streaming. Real-world examples from Generali, Centene, Humana, and Tesla show innovative insurance-related data integration and stream processing in real-time.
Most insurance companies have similar challenges:
As the number of services grows in an organization, the problem of secret management only gets worse. Between Zero Trust and the emergence of microservices, handling secrets such as tokens, credentials, and keys has become an increasingly challenging task. That’s where a solution like HashiCorp’s Vault can help organizations solve their secret management woes.
Although there are secret management tools native to each cloud provider, using these solutions locks you in with a specific cloud provider. Vault, on the other hand, is open source and portable.
