Whether you're working with on-premises, cloud, and/or third-party integrations, the questions remain the same: What is the client or user experience you need to offer? And how do you align your integration strategy with it? This Refcard explores fundamental patterns for authentication, polling, querying, and more, helping you assess your integration needs and approach the design, build, and maintenance of your API integrations in the most effective ways for your business case.
Today's cyber threat landscape necessitates a nuanced and proactive strategy for circumventing attacks due to the increasingly complex, sophisticated nature of threats. Security teams must not only have a solid understanding of the landscape but also have effective solutions for predicting and preempting security threats — those both known and unknown to their organization.
In this updated Refcard, you will learn about the evolving threat landscape as well as basic and advanced threat detection techniques, how they are similar and different to threat hunting, and key challenges of emerging technologies, all provided to help strengthen your overall security strategy.
Open-source data architectures offer organizations and teams significant benefits, ranging from reduced vendor lock-in and improved cost effectiveness to greater scalability, availability, and flexibility. In this Refcard, you'll learn core practices for building an open-source data architecture stack, along with design patterns for infrastructure components, high availability, scalability, security, and more.
As data-driven applications continue to grow, it is important for organizations to develop data-driven strategies that drive their business objectives. For modern businesses, data is invaluable, so it comes as no surprise that a majority of emerging technologies and approaches are focused on ensuring efficient data management, enhanced analytics, and robust data security.
