CIRA is currently investigating the need and feasibility of creating Multi-Media SIP Peering Exchanges in Canada. The goal would to create a minimum of 3 Multi-Med …

IoT device management and multiprotocol messaging platforms demand specific architectural decisions and high-concurrency approaches due to the massive number of expected devices. Drasko Draskovic and Janko Isidorovic share an architecture, implementation, and testing procedures needed to create an industry-grade IoT platform based on microservices and Docker containers.

Streaming platforms have emerged as a popular, new trend, but what exactly is a streaming platform? With Apache Kafka at the core, streaming platforms offer an entirely new perspective on managing the flow of data. Neha Narkhede shares examples of Kafka in action and explains why streaming platforms have become the central nervous system for modern digital businesses.

Eclipse IoT is an ecosystem of organizations that are working together to establish an IoT architecture based on open source technologies and standards. Dave Shuman and James Kirkland showcase an end-to-end architecture for the IoT based on open source standards, highlighting Eclipse Kura, an open source stack for gateways and the edge, and Eclipse Kapua, an open source IoT cloud platform.

Modern enterprises produce data at increasingly high volume and velocity. To process data in real time, new types of storage systems have been designed, implemented, and deployed. Matteo Merli and Sijie Guo offer an overview of Apache DistributedLog and Pulsar, real-time storage systems built using Apache BookKeeper and used heavily in production.

Effective communication between distributed and heterogeneous components is essential for modern service-oriented architectures to work well. REST, RPC, and brokered messaging are the most popular com …

The authors of WiSH have been involved with the WebSocket protocol since its beginning but soon realized that the real problem has always been web APIs along with a non-HTTP protocol that is truly harmful to the web. Wenbo Zhu explains why the web is better off with WiSH for deploying scalable and reliable bidirectional communication over the internet.

The necessary cultural shift that accompanies the move from monolithic application to microservices is often overlooked and can topple the best-laid plans. CJ Johnson discusses the behaviors, mindset, and messaging necessary to effect a social change across an organization.

Akka, the distributed systems toolkit, has been pushing the envelope of distributed and reactive systems for many years now. Konrad Malawski and Henrik Engstrm walk you through writing services using state-of-the-art technology like Akka Cluster and Streams and expose them as microservices using Akka HTTP, Play, or Lagom.

Stanley Black and Decker's Digital Accelerator has spent the last year migrating existing applications, and creating new ones, using serverless architecture on AWS. Christopher Phillips explores the pros and cons of going serverless, as well as the tools and patterns you need and the caveats learned along the way.

Apache DistributedLog (incubating) is a low-latency, high-throughput replicated log service. Sijie Guo shares how Twitter has used DistributedLog as the real-time data foundation in production for years, supporting services like distributed databases, pub-sub messaging, and real-time stream computing and delivering more than 1.5 trillion (17 PB) events per day.
