WordCamp Asia Cancelled Due to COVID-19

2020-02-12 KENNETH 0

WordCamp Asia Cancelled Due to COVID-19 I’ve arrived at the difficult decision to cancel the inaugural WordCamp Asia event, which was planned to take place in Bangkok on February 21st. The excitement and anticipation around this event have been huge, but there are too many unknowns around the health issues unfolding right now in the region to explicitly encourage a large public gathering bringing together over 1,300 people from around the world. We’re going to explore if speakers — including myself — can do our sessions with the same content and at the same time that was originally planned, just online instead of in-person so we can achieve our goal of bringing the pan-Asian community closer together without putting anyone’s health at additional risk. Regardless, I greatly appreciate the work everyone — from organizers to attendees,  speakers to sponsors — [ more… ]

WordPress 5.4 Beta 1 WordPress 5.4 Beta 1 is now available for testing! This software is still in development, so we don’t recommend running it on a production site. Consider setting up a test site to play with the new version. You can test the WordPress 5.4 beta in two ways: Try the WordPress Beta Tester plugin (choose the “bleeding edge nightlies” option) Or download the beta here (zip).

5 Ways Software Load Balancers Facilitate Modern Application Delivery

2020-02-12 KENNETH 0

5 Ways Software Load Balancers Facilitate Modern Application Delivery In the past, achieving a stable, high‑performance application required specialized, proprietary hardware load balancers. These appliances sat in front of applications and web servers, and used policies and algorithms to distribute traffic in an optimized way to backend servers. However, as processor speeds continue to improve and as modern software architectures become the choice of many organizations undergoing digital transformation, software‑based load balancers can provide a good alternative to these specialized, on‑premises appliances. When leveraged correctly, software‑based load balancers are key to enabling DevOps, microservice application architectures, and cloud‑native, hybrid, and multi‑cloud deployments. Here are five reasons why we at Vizuri often implement software load balancers for our customers when modernizing their systems. Reason 1: Enhance Agility Hardware‑based load balancers are expensive, so most organizations use just one (or a few) [ more… ]
