In recent years, building modern applications has changed from what has been seen historically. Usually, in the past, systems were developed with a single, large block of code (referred to as a monolithic design) and would operate fairly well for smaller applications, but with time, as they got larger and more complex, the method of writing software became more of a hindrance to the applications as they required more users and increased speed. Now, companies need their applications to be able to
Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a "coordinated malware campaign" on the JetBrains Marketplace that has published no less than 15 malicious plugins capable of exfiltrating artificial intelligence (AI) provider keys. "Every plugin poses as an AI coding assistant built on DeepSeek and other large language models, offering chat, commit messages, code review, bug finding, and unit tests,"
In this post, we show how Vonage network-powered solutions work with Amazon Cognito to enhance many mobile-first use cases with network-level identity verification. Vonage network-powered solutions are a composable stack of real-time mobile operator intelligence, silent authentication, and integrated fraud protection, which uses the CUSTOM_AUTH flow to complete identity verification in under 5 seconds, with zero user interaction.
When downsizing an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance, teams often evaluate CPU and memory utilization but overlook the instance’s Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) performance limits for throughput and IOPS. Smaller Amazon EBS-optimized instance types have lower baselines and rely on burst credits to handle peaks. If your workload’s I/O pattern drains […]
