Learn how to build an app with WebGPU for the web and specific platforms.

Data is by its nature a messy beast, and it has only become more so as workloads have found their way out of the datacenter and into the cloud and even all the way out to the edge. This is the problem that San Mateo, California-based Hammerspace, founded by David Flynn of Fusion-io fame, has

Who needs a graph database when you already have PostgreSQL

Peer-to-peer networks are the foundation of the decentralized web. Today we dive into what P2P networks are, how they differ from the popular client-server model, and the advantages of decentralized file sharing in P2P networks.

Exploring the common software design patterns in the context of Ruby on Rails.

Complex problems are difficult to be abstracted in binary for computers to understand. Photons could be a potential solution.

Palette Virtual Machine Orchestrator makes VMs a first-class citizen in your clusters.

Messaging applications are increasingly making use of end-to-end security mechanisms to ensure that messages are only accessible to the communicating endpoints, and not to any servers involved in delivering messages. Establishing keys to provide such protections is challenging for group chat settings, in which more than two clients need to agree on a key but may not be online at the same time. In this document, we specify a key establishment protocol that provides efficient asynchronous group key establishment with forward secrecy (FS) and post-compromise security (PCS) for groups in size ranging from two to thousands.

The decentralized web, or Web3, has several key characteristics that differentiate it from Web2. Here are seven core principles that define the decentralized web and their associated benefits.

Both the optimum lifetime of a token and the required data must be thoroughly considered when designing JSON Web Tokens.
