As applications grow in size and complexity, and as they increasingly move to microservice architectures, it becomes harder for individual developers to perform end-to-end tests of an entire application stack. Connecting development services to production services is off limits. Test environments are limited to automated tests. Staging environments are woefully inadequate with the amount of

Silicon Valley has many investors and Venture Capital firms, but most are not trying to solve hard technical problems. Engineering Capital partners with companies that are taking a technical risk. These are the companies who have some innovation where there is a doubt on whether it can even be built. Ideally, the market for this

We do it every day. We search on the internet for some information. Many ask, why is that easy? And yet doing the same thing at my company is hard sometimes, not even possible. And when you do get the data, it’s unclear where it’s from or the degree you can trust it or use

Data anonymisation is an ever more important problem with many pitfalls, and the legal context requires more and more companies to find a solution to it. In this episode, we talk to John Craft from Privacy Dynamics, who offer data anonymisation as a service. Privacy Dynamics is powering a world where ethics, data insights and

Fintechs and traditional finance firms want to help their small business customers replace disorganized competing manual processes and multiple data sources with a single unified set of services and data. They could do that. They could more easily offer quicker decisions, better customer experience, and even get more first time customers founded in 2017. Codat

OpenSSL is a free, open-source cryptographic library that provides secure communications over computer networks. It’s widely used to implement the secure socket layer (SSL) and transport layer security (TLS) protocols, which are the basis for secure, encrypted connections on the internet. On Oct 25th, the OpenSSL project informed its users of a critical vulnerability that

Comma is a startup aimed at solving self-driving cars. A lot of the new cars in the market have built-in stock Advanced driver assistance systems. Comma takes this system to the next level with Openpilot. Openpilot is an open-source driver assistance system. Currently, with features like Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Automated Lane Centering (ALC), Forward

Monolithic relational databases are the traditional foundation of financial core ledger systems. Nevertheless, the process of building and operating mission critical financial ledgers on these databases, and implementing homegrown accounting models, is a journey fraught with engineering challenges. Twisp has set out to rethink the underlying technology for financial ledger systems by combining the operational
