In this episode we’ll be continuing our journey through Node.js, looking at a simple and minimal RESTful API example with the help of Express to build it, and DocumentDB for our persistence.
If you haven’t done before, take a look at this tutorial which is conceptually similar, except for the fact that persistence this time is based on a MongoDB engine, hosted on AWS, and it’s called DocumentDB.
After President Trump’s ban of Huawei, there seem to be less alternatives on the market than ever before. Protectionism of any kind could not be of any good for anyone.
Android has given us the possibility to access to mobile computing at a cheap price, have different prices combined with a good variety of models with different features. It is a standard and it’s free for all of us.
But what if we put global economy into the picture? The result is that we’ll all have to switch our preferences when it comes to mobile phones.
One of the modern paradigms of Software Development is the use of RESTful APIs which can simplify and make life a lot easier for engineers when it comes to building APIs and webservices.
This tutorial is far from explaining you all the details about REST and Microservices, nonetheless it can give you good guidance for the beginning of your learning of these technologies.
And finally we land into the world of Ruby, which has one of the most richest and finest SDKs when it comes to AWS.
This tutorial is based on Ubuntu WSL, the subshell for the Redmond’s OS, and you can download it easily from the Microsoft store.
Although recommended for the purposes of this guide, I think you can make it even if you are on a vanilla Ubuntu installation or virtual machine.
The first thing is to install Ruby on WSL, I chose RVM to install and manage different versions of the language on the same operating system. Once you’re logged on WSL, issue the following commands, and everything should work fine:
This tutorial follows another guide that I made, always about Symfony, but this time we’re talking about Symfony 4.
As the framework evolves into new releases there might be some changes in methods, classes and tools. They may become deprecated or obsolete and new tools may be added, although some kind of retrocompatibility may be assured.
If you want to know more about that, you can visit Symfony’s roadmap and discover how it will evolve and how long the various versions will be maintained.
Dynamic languages may seem to be error prone in some ways because they often don’t have something like a compile time check and so on.
Take the case of Node.js, it has a high level of abstraction (you don’t have to face the bare metal of your machine) and its simplicity and conciseness of syntax allow us to write a lot less code.
Verbose code like the one written in Java leaves not doubt about what the program intends to do yes, but it can be tiring to write or even to read; although many IDEs can help with their autocomplete.
Welcome back you guys for this tutorial, and I’m super excited to present you the AWS Java SDK for EC2.
Java is a statically typed language and allows us to take control over insidious bugs that otherwise would be evident only at runtime: leaving you guys no other choice than working for long hours on a friday night, if something goes wrong in that particular day. And if it can… it will!
This tutorial is based on Intellij Idea, a super smart IDE that contains a lot of features and useful stuff that can make life easier for all of you, even if you are an experienced one.
And here we go again. We will continue this tour of AWS SDKs. This is the turn of Go, the Go programming language.
Now, first let’s consider a few links in which you will find some useful information about the language and the SDK. Take note of the followings: homepage for the Go language , here you will find how to install it. Then we have the reference API for the AWS sdk.
Here is how to check if the installation went all right:
