I recently took the opportunity to discuss open source and security challenges with Itay Shakury of Aqua Security. What follows is a fascinating discussion about current issues, the future, and specific cloud-native tools that address the concerns of today's Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs).

"The cloud" refers to both the collective computing power of an interconnected array of servers and the software layer enabling those computers to work together to create dynamically defined infrastructure. Because many consider the cloud the new frontier of computing, it's dominated the software industry for the past several years. Still, your individual level of involvement with it probably depends on your career and how much you acknowledge that you're using the cloud in your computing.

Laravel is a free, open-source, and lightweight PHP web framework used for building PHP-based web applications. It is popular due to its elegant syntax, advanced features, and robust toolset. In this post, we will show you how to install Laravel with Nginx on Alma Linux 8.

GParted is a graphical dynamic partition management tool for Linux. In other words, it does useful things like non-destructively expand or shrink disk partitions while they contain data. It's not unfair to describe it as a FOSS recreation of the late lamented PartitionMagic.

Python is one of the most ubiquitous development languages; it's used frequently by sysadmins, data scientists, back-end software developers, and web developers. Python has many use cases, and this tutorial explores how to use it for scripting common sysadmin tasks.

With the evolution of technology, we find ourselves needing to be even more vigilant with our online security every day. Our browsing and shopping behaviors are also being continuously tracked online via tracking cookies being dropped on our browsers that we allow by clicking the “I Accept” button next to deliberately long agreements on websites before we can get the full benefit of said site.

When you're a technologist, and you hear "containers" and "supply-chain," your mind immediately turns to Docker containers and supply-chain software. Most people, however, think of container ships and the physical supply chain that brings milk and bread to their local grocery store. However, these two concepts have more in common than you might think. A. P. Møller - Mærsk A/S (Maersk) is a leading global container logistics and shipping services leader company that uses open-source software to deliver its goods.

Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) is a web service offered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for storing and access to objects via the internet. S3 offers websites, web services, and mobile applications the ability to upload data and store it on its servers. In this guide, we will create and configure a simple static website using Amazon S3.

Arm says heterogeneous compute architectures – those with a mix of CPUs, GPUs, DPUs, and other processor types – pose a challenge for software developers, and greater multi-architecture support is needed to address this.

Rolling Rhino is a new community remix of Ubuntu, but with a unique twist: it has a whole new release model, rather than just a different desktop. The new remix builds upon a tool of the same name. The Rolling Rhino script converts an installation of one of Ubuntu's daily images into a rolling release by setting it to track the devel branch of the distro. The Rolling Rhino remix simplifies this process somewhat by allowing you to install the distro already configured in the relevant way.

The Fedora Project announces the immediate availability of Fedora Linux 36 Beta, the next step towards our planned release at the end of April.

If you speak to people running Kubernetes in production, one of the complaints you'll often hear is how difficult multitenancy is. Organizations use two main models to share Kubernetes clusters with multiple tenants, but both present issues.

For the second summer, Major League Hacking (MLH) is running the Production Engineering Track of the MLH Fellowship, powered by Meta. This 12-week educational program is 100% remote and uses industry-leading curriculum from Linux Foundation Training & Certification. The program is hands-on, project-based, and teaches students how to become Production Engineers. The goal of the program is for all participants to land a job or internship in the Site Reliability Engineering space, and it will be opened to 100 active college students who meet our admissions criteria.

Many technology firms are turning to open source tools to accelerate innovation and growth. As these firms work to influence open source projects, governance practices sometimes shift from coordination among a small group of developers and firms to management by large communities of contributors and organizations, often with competing priorities.

Sometimes the best things are the most simple. A case in point: sending GitHub issues to an old thermal POS printer via a Raspberry Pi.

Kontron announced a “Pi-Tron CM4” industrial mini-PC (or SBC) based on a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 with GbE and 10/100 LAN, 3x USB, 2x COM, CAN-FD, DIO, HDMI 2.0, MIPI-DSI/CSI, 40-pin GPIO, and M.2 B-key.

When to choose Golang versus Python and YAML for writing Kubernetes webbooks.

GNOME 42 is here, but its new look and feel doesn't yet include all of the environment. This is already causing rumblings of discontent. This release is significant because soon it will be the default desktop of the next Long Term Support (LTS) version of Ubuntu. That means a lot of people will be looking at GNOME 42 every day until 2024.

Octavo Systems’ 40 x 20.5mm “OSDZU3” SiP module runs Linux on the FPGA-equipped, quad -A53 Zynq UltraScale ZU3 MPSoC with 2GB LPDDR4. An “OSDZU3-REF” carrier adds GbE, DP, SATA, USB, and PMODs.

This article demonstrates how Quarkus enables developers to simplify JPA implementation using Kotlin programming APIs for reactive Java applications.
