We’ve added sample Terraform code to the Ambassador Pro Reference Architecture GitHub repo which enables the creation of a multi-platform “sandbox” infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform. This will allow you to spin up a Kubernetes cluster and several VMs, and practice routing traffic from Ambassador to the existing applications.

IT infrastructure represents a large capital expenditure, in terms of the cost of data center facilities, servers, software licenses, network and storage equipment. Amazon pioneered elastic on-demand billing for infrastructure. Refactoring involves rethinking an application and rebuilding it using a cloud native architecture.

Everyone knows information security is important: from tuning web application firewalls, to ensuring we have a disaster recovery plan, to deploying vulnerability scanning. At Modus, this is a question that often presents itself when architecting a client’s application solution or aiding in building out infrastructure and DevOps pipelines.

In some cases, a cloud provider may offer services to help mitigate the issues, such as web application firewalls (WAF). Web applications deployed on cloud infrastructures can suffer the same vulnerabilities as applications deployed on-premises. Cloud service providers do not patch the code when a vulnerability exists.

Modern web applications are designed with different services — like internal and external application programming interfaces (APIs), microservices and databases — that communicate and share data with each other. Modern web application architectures often include many microservices and APIs (Rest, GraphQL, etc.)

Ask Alan Shreve why he founded Ngrok , a service that helps developers share sites and apps running on their local machines or servers, and he’ll tell you it was to solve a tough-to-grok (pun fully intended) infrastructure problem he encountered while at Twilio. “Ngrok allows developers to avoid that complexity.”
