What makes a great CTO? Is it technical skills? Mindset? Leadership style?

This is what we’ve tried to answer together with Cornel Fătulescu, Chief Platform Officer at Pentalog, during our CTO Fundamentals webinar series. In case you’ve missed the events or want to review the information from time to time, here are a few highlights. 

Picture this: you built a house from the ground up. Your house has different possible uses - you can choose to live in it, turn it into a business or a medical centre, or continue to build alongside it. Whatever it is you decide to do with your house, your decision requires planning and preparation so your house can be resilient. However, the process to build your house remains the same. 

In an ideal situation, your development team is productive and delivers a great app with minimal downtime. Does this sound too good to be true? That usually means it is.

Cybersecurity breaches are at an all-time high - the global Covid-19 pandemic and the fact that many businesses are now operating remotely makes companies even more vulnerable to malicious attacks. Despite organizations strengthening their defenses against cyber threats, 95% of cybersecurity breaches are still caused by human error.

You want to deliver a flawless app to your stakeholders, not overwork your team members, and get to production within your allotted time frame. But wait, a bottleneck appears. 

As a business, having your product run on a high-performant infrastructure is a must. When everything runs smoothly, your customers have a great experience, and you can see your traffic increase exponentially.

Bunnyshell is growing into a collaborative platform for teams: developers, product managers, QA Engineers, and Sales, supporting the new way of building software that involves more people than developers.

Software as a Service (SaaS) is now the largest segment in the public cloud market. This model transformed having to be a large “well-oiled” company with lots of resources to virtually anyone being able to turn their ideas into software distributed to customers worldwide. 

Bunnyshell, the Romanian startup that develops technologies for cloud infrastructure management, is a finalist of  Global Startup Awards, the largest independent startup ecosystem competition with the mission, recognize and connect the future shapers of the digital age from around the world. 

SaaS businesses are popular and on the rise now more than ever. So how do you get an edge over your competition and stand out from the crowd? 

You ensure your customers are getting better services 24/7. The customers depend on you.

SaaS companies constantly make improvements and develop new features (big and small) to enhance user experience and “keep up with the times” for each product. In turn, they’re optimizing their SaaS release management process each time. Or are they? 

While some customers take an amazing online shopping experience for granted, many will leave in a heartbeat if an eCommerce store gets it wrong. 

And there are a lot of things that can go wrong, unfortunately. 

Is keeping your codebase stable a vital thing for you and your team?

What about the possibility of multiple developers working on a particular feature without disturbing that codebase?

Every other type of environment has been mentioned so far, except for training environments. Yet they are essential for learning about the software you’re working on and coming up with solutions to bugs or other issues.

A lot goes on behind the scenes to successfully release software. Competitive pressures and technological advancements are ever-growing in our day and age. Therefore, release management exists to help organizations with software release complexities.

Your products are unique for you and your end-users, and you want to ensure they’re always top-notch and ready for use. But how do you make your product production-ready? What kind of testing should you conduct to reach that point?

All software engineering groups, across all industries, regardless of size, use release management to make their process smoother. 

Manual testing is time-consuming, and your CI/CD pipeline struggles without speed, but you want to deliver robust and reliable software to your customers. How do you do that? Through test automation. Although it can be pricier initially, it ends up being cost-effective in the end if done right. 

There are different kinds of testing environments as part of the deployment process. But, in this article, we’ll focus on staging environments and their best practices to optimize deployment.

We’re dependent on the Internet; and the internet? It’s dependent on high availability architecture. What would you do if it just stopped working one day? No work. No social media sites. No streaming channels. What would we do with ourselves? 

Back in 2003, when WordPress was first released, many were skeptical about its future. Now, the platform powers more than 75 million websites around the world, and its market share is still increasing.

Ever since its launch back in 2003, WordPress has become a global phenomenon. Today, most websites, from presentation sites to personal blogs, use WordPress as their Content Management System (CMS). In fact, WordPress websites make up 14.7% of the top 100 websites in the world.

Today, delivering high-performing applicationsfastandefficientlyis a common challenge for development teams. That’s because continuously improving software products is crucial for meeting customer demands.

We’re living in a world where businesses must keep up with the latest software development technologies. If you don’t, you won’t survive. Agile methodologies can help keep you up to date with the trends, especially when it comes to automation and testing. 

Many software development companies are adopting Environment as a Service (EaaS) because of its many benefits for production and not only. This article discusses the reasons why EaaS is great for businesses of all sizes. It will also mention how Bunnyshell has the perfect EaaS solution for you.  

A well-executed proof of concept requires careful planning and preparation but is an important part of seeing whether or not a product is feasible for the market. Development teams that don’t use proof of concept end up regretting it. 

This article discusses the DevOps skills gap, what it is and how to close it with Environment as a Service, and other things you can do to reduce the skills gap. Finally, we end by mentioning how Bunnyshell can help along the process

When we think about a good developer team, we think about hiring the most skilled and experienced individuals. But is that enough to deliver high-velocity work? 

You know what sucks? Building an awesome app that could change the lives of thousands of people, only to see it die because you didn’t think of scalability from day one. There comes a day in the life of every startup when they need to ask for funding. After all, you can’t bootstrap forever.

The case of Cloud Computing for Data Scientists has been made pretty clear in the past few years. In comparison to the traditional on-premises solutions, it provides excellent scalability, simplifies management, and reduces costs.

In this article, we’ll focus on explaining what development velocity is, how to measure it, and how to increase it without sacrificing quality by using an Environment as a Service solution. Stay with us until the end to also find out how Bunnyshell can make your work easier. 

Ephemeral environments are a growing trend because they can replace or reduce the time spent in staging environments, thus significantly cutting down on development costs. 

Setting up test environments presents challenges such as management -  how are you going to manage all of them? Additionally, manually creating these environments means extra time, effort, and resources for your DevOps teams and not only. But, there are solutions.  

Even though it’s still a pretty complex concept to grasp and achieve for the late majority of companies, DevOps has goodies for everyone in the software chain: developers, operations, QA and also touches the business side of things: managers who monetize the software and executives who worry about the bottom line.

With the ever-increasing amount of data being shared, used, and processed, web app performance is more important than ever. 

As more and more organizations embrace Digital Transformation, they also adopt a DevOps culture in order to be able to produce new applications and services at high velocity. That’s because a culture that encourages shared responsibility, transparency, and fast feedback helps shrink the gaps between teams and therefore also speeds up processes.

Bunnyshell does just that: it puts your infrastructure on autopilot. Around here, we have a saying: “Deploy and forget”. What this means is that we lower the complexity of deploying applications to cloud so much that even a non-technical person can do it.

Companies are starting to pay even more attention to data security. GDPR compliance, data breaches, and hackers are just some of the issues related to data security. Knowing this, businesses are trying to find a better alternative to in-house servers that are no longer secure.

Thanks to the advancements in cloud computing, today, almost anything can come in the form of aaS (as a Service). From the well-known Software as a Service (SaaS) to more “exotic” offerings such as Artificial Intelligence as a Service (AIaaS), Blockchain as a Service (BaaS), or IoT as a Service (IoTaaS), all these systems have the same core characteristic: a web-based interface through which the customer interacts with the system.

As we’ve previously illustrated in ourWhat is EaaSarticle, Environment as a Service has the application and its environment version controlled and managed as a single entity. A few immediate benefits of this approach are lowered costs, increased speed, and experimentation possibilities.

The IT industry is changing every day with new trends and developments. Because of this, a major shift has occurred towards test environments, driven entirely by automation and self-service. This is where Environment as a Service (EaaS) comes in, supporting faster innovation and eliminating any environment bottlenecks.

In this article we will be looking at performance benchmarks from these four cloud providers and noting down each ranking placement for each benchmark as follows:

If you’ve followed our blog for a while, you know we often talk about the benefits of DevOps: faster delivery of products and features, more stable environments, improved communication and collaboration, among many others.

Both SRE and DevOps are methodologies addressing organizations’ needs for production operation management. But what’s the difference between them? Is a Site Reliability Engineer a good job? What does a DevOp do?

This one’s a major milestone in Bunnyshell’s lifecycle, and for our team as well. It gives us confidence that we’re on track, and that we’re building a product that brings true value to people’s lives.

2020 was a year like no other, and among the many things that we had to get accustomed to was the lack of offline events. If you’re a professional who likes to connect with the local community or attend conferences and learn from the best in your industry, we’re sure this was a bitter pill to swallow.

At Bunnyshell, we’re not only focused on building a product but also improving or creating the technology that makes our product possible. Ultimately, our goal is to become the reason why SMEs are able to keep their applications online.

DevOps culture started to shape the world of software a few years ago, when business challenges pushed delivery to next level. Since then, many business organisations have adopted DevOps in their processes and the number of adopters is steadily increasing.

So, let’s see,  what’s next year preparing for the DevOps world in terms of progress. And how can Bunnyshell help you stay ahead of the competition, in 2020 and forever after?

This challenge was for our colleagues a great time to step away from the computer. Put the self-critic aside and do some exploratory writing to take the pressure off.

Writing about your evolution, behaviours, deficiencies and feelings forces you to think about them. And that can be scary. Maybe there are things that you don’t want to remember or things that you may regret. But, writing about it helps you work through these thoughts. And find a way that maybe helps you to improve what you think can be improved.

When writing about yourself, sometimes a step back is needed. Gotta think about what you have learned about your thoughts, emotions,  lessons and more. It’s something we usually have to put some energy and effort into. But, we believe it’s worth every minute.

Writing about yourself is hard! You sit down and try to find the right words in your mind, but nothing happens. You write and rewrite. But when you read again that sounds probably awkward. It seems like it is not actually about you. This is the typical scenario when you’re supposed to write an about me section.

Hello! I am Gheorghe and I am learning new things every day as an intern at Bunnyshell. I think, in general, finding the right place for yourself is extremely challenging. That’s why I have to admit: I was lucky.  

Located in Germany’s data, finance and security hub, Germany’s largest disruptive technology event, Tech Week, returns to Messe Frankfurt on the 13th-14th November 2019,  incorporating Cloud Expo Europe, DevOps Live, Cloud & Cyber Security Expo, Smart IoT, Big Data World, Blockchain Technology World and Data Centre World. 

Our colleague, Mihaela, the newest member of the Bunnyshell team, also took on the challenge “Looking within to see beyond”. She admitted that even if “oneself” is the topic one should know a lot about, it is not the easiest thing. But, despite getting out of the comfort zone, she learned to blush and bear it. She honestly and enthusiastically wrote about her love for technology, accomplishments, experience and skills.

Hello!  My name is Mari and i am an intern at Bunnyshell. Here’s my story with the folks here so far.

Being an entrepreneur is not something everyone can do, and if you’re a founder yourself, you’re very familiar with the hard work, long hours, and the many failures before the first success.

We have a very ambitious vision: take over the tech industry and become one of the best environment as a service platform on the market. But vision without action is just a dream, and to take action, we need a great team.

Year after year, online retailers register record earnings on Black Friday and the following weekend. And we bet you want a piece (as big as possible) of those earnings too.

With the growth in popularity of online retailing and technological advancement, today, eCommerce customer expectations are sky-high. Over the last years, in particular, Amazon Prime and same-day delivery have fueled customers’ ‘want it now’ mentality.

It’s hard to imagine a world without cloud technology now that so many people are forced to work remotely. Never have we ever faced such a high demand for availability of IT resources facilitated by the cloud than during this pandemic.

The cloud is constantly growing and evolving. So is the way we use it in business. That’s where cloud automation comes in, making all activities related to cloud computing as fast, efficient, and as hands off as possible.

Let’s Encrypt, the most popular free certificate signing authority is going to invalidate more than 3 million TLS certificates within the next few hours. The reason why that happens is because they were wrongfully issued due to a Certificate Authority software bug.

Your platform is down. You’d just launched a new campaign to drive traffic to your website and hopefully convert some of your leads. It was going great. Until that last spike of traffic made it crash.

Even though it might seem like a tough concept to grasp and apply, the idea of multi-cloud computing is a simple one: It’s the choice of a business to distribute its assets, redundancies, software, applications, and anything it deems worthy not on one cloud-hosting environment, but rather across several.

Today there are many cloud service providers and each one comes with its ups and downs, which makes it hard for business owners to choose the best one for their needs. Although cloud computing has been a hot topic for a while now. The market is still at the beginning. Most business owners are not convinced that this is a safe method to store sensitive data.

Let’s be frank and admit that every business wants more profit and fewer expenses. This means that business owners are trying every tactic in the book when it comes to saving money. Cutting the costs doesn’t mean reducing the product quality. That is why you need to focus on providing an excellent experience for your customers. As well as keeping the costs at a lower price.

Many e-commerce businesses understand the need to move their infrastructure to the cloud. Maintaining the user experience in the event of traffic spikes and slow page load time, being vigilant about customer data security because online stores are often targets for cybercriminals, having a reliable solution for backups, are just a few of the reasons shop owners think about moving to the cloud. Choosing the right cloud provider, however, can be an overwhelming decision.

Most e-commerce businesses that think about cloud adoption have a one-step at a time approach. They address specific needs as they arise. At the opposite pole are the online shops that don’t have a strategy in place and are subject to “cloud sprawl”. Cloud sprawl usually occurs when different departments inside the same organization are contracting for cloud services independently of each other. As a result, this situation drives up costs and can lead to issues with compliance and security.

We find the origins of commerce in the prehistoric times when trading became a principal facility of prehistoric people, who bartered whatever goods and services they had. Today, living in the digital era, the classical notion of commerce came into e-commerce. And since the world of retail is undergoing an unprecedented wave of innovation, e-commerce is still on the rise.

Right now, we’re experiencing an exploding growth in the amount of data we generate. Moreover, this data is unstructured. This means that the traditional storing solution of using relational databases with rows and columns is no longer efficient.

It seems every organization tries to implement DevOps nowadays. Which, in theory, is not a bad thing.

The actual problem is rushing into things without fully understanding how DevOps works and viewing DevOps as the universal solution to all problems. This leads to poor implementation and, ultimately, not the desired results.

Microservices is one of the most buzzworthy concepts right now. Everyone wants to create applications that use microservices, even when that’s not the best architectural approach for their app (but more on that later). So, in this article, we want to explain what microservices are, how they work, and why and when you need a microservices architecture.

Continuous integration (CI), continuous delivery/deployment (CD), and continuous testing (CT) accelerate the code release process and help with deployment.

Both SysOps (system operations) and DevOps (development operations) are two central components of Cloud Computing, one of the leading technologies of the last decade. As some organizations find it difficult to distinguish between the two, we have decided to cover their similarities and differences in detail.

Upkeeping and configuring hundreds of computer systems and monitoring networks is not easy. But with the right tools, the job becomes less tedious as many of a SysAdmin’s tasks can be automated.

If you’re having trouble with constant deployments that take hours of DevOps, manually scaling your servers and high cloud spend, we’re going to show you how to overcome them by using a cloud infrastructure management tool.

Conferences and meetups are great opportunities for developers to learn new things (either about a subject they’re interested in, either about new technologies they might not have heard of), share their knowledge and experience, and connect with other like-minded professionals.

84% of enterprises have a multi-cloud strategy, and 58% use both public clouds and private clouds as part of that strategy.

Whether to optimize the costs associated with running and managing their own infrastructure or to enable development teams to build more efficient apps, most businesses today are interested in adopting a cloud infrastructure.

In our previous article, ‘What is DevOps?’ we were mentioning that DevOps is not just a bunch of tools, but rather a mix of cultural, development, and operational changes. Naturally, changing your company culture is not something you can do overnight; actions and decisions should be carefully thought out.

DevOps is the process of integrating development and operations, while DevSecOps is a subset of that which focuses on security. The two concepts are not mutually exclusive, but they do have different goals.

If we think about the evolution of software development, we’ll distinguish 2 turning points: the introduction of the waterfall methodology and the shift towards the agile methodology.

Coined by Patrick Debois back in 2007, the term ‘DevOps’ refers to bringing Development and Operations together, thus extending Agile development as a philosophy to enhance the software delivery process as a whole.

As the holiday season begins, Black Friday also gives the start to the annual e-commerce spike. With more and more customers choosing to do their shopping online, website bugs and conversion issues can result in missed sales opportunities or worse – customers crossing out your brand in favour of the competition.

Many organizations use the terms DevOps and Automation interchangeably. But do they refer to the same processes? We asked 8 practitioners to share their opinions with us.

Black Friday is the most important event of the year for eCommerce shops. However, it’s not a stress-free day for most online retailers. Why? Because there are many technical issues that can cause Black Friday website crashes.

One of the things that keep online shop owners awake at night is – will my website withstand the Black Friday traffic? As this is one of the most important days of the year, a downtime of even a few minutes can translate into thousands of dollars in losses.

Although OpenLiteSpeed doesn’t require a control panel service, we still recommend using one, especially if you’ve never used OLS before. For this, CyberPanel is a good choice because it will do most of the configuration for you, so you don’t need to stress with permissions, virtual hosts, or domain mapping.

The app and software development cycle often pertain to several steps, along with time and effort. To reduce the time invested in software development, companies are taking up the help of DevOps Engineers.

Bucharest – May 06, 2021–Bunnyshell, the DevOps platform for SME, today announced it has closed a 1.1 million euro funding round led by early Game Ventures. This is the second investment of EGV in Bunnyshell and confirms the company’s spectacular evolution in the last year and a half.

While in the past, when browsing the internet, it was common to be met with messages like “We apologize for any inconvenience. Our website is now down for maintenance,” today, thanks to the modern practice of Continuous Delivery (CD), we can keep our servers online as we patch and update our products.

Sooo… How does Netflix think about DevOps? Easy! They don’t. The end.

The DevOps philosophy refers to enabling organizations to deliver applications and services at high velocity, meaning improving products faster than using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes would allow.

As discussions, approaches, and practices only now begin to take flight, you might be tempted to think that the DevOps philosophy is quite new. In reality, however, this methodology first emerged back in 2007, when a frustrated consultant, project manager, and agile practitioner, Patrick Debois, got fed up with the separation between software development and IT operations and the inefficiencies it raised.
