Achieving unbrickable remote firmware updates on MCUs with a Microvisor architecture
Posted on May 16, 2023, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
For many years, microcontrollers have been a staple in various products, continuously revolutionizing their feature sets, reliability, and performance. Moore's Law has brought 16- and 32-bit processing to even the smallest and most affordable consumer products. The presence of larger memory and CPU power has allowed the use of real-time operating systems (RTOS) where previously developers had to rely on "bare metal" coding. However, as products have evolved to become connected devices in the context of IoT, it has revealed fundamental shortcomings in the traditional methods of software development for microcontrollers.

NGINX tutorial: How to use OpenTelemetry tracing to understand your microservices
Posted on April 9, 2023, Level beginner Resource Length long
A microservices architecture comes with many benefits, including increased team autonomy and increased flexibility in scaling and deployment. On the downside, the more services in a system (and a microservices app can have dozens or even hundreds), the more difficult it becomes to maintain a clear picture of the overall operation of the system.Observability tooling gives us the power to build that picture across numerous services and supporting infrastructure.
