From State Machine to Stateless Microservice
In my last blog post, I wrote about implementing a state machine inside a microservice I call Remote Control that will automate deployments of our products and monitor the cluster. Here I would like to describe how all this was wrong and why I had to rewrite the code completely.

Entangled ways of product development in the area of cybersecurity #3 - LogMan.io
At that time I lived in Prague for a short time, which is not a very friendly place to live, but it allowed me to go to the office almost every day. A bigger surprise awaited Vlaďka and Aleš when I told them that I was going to move to a house almost eighty kilometres from the office and that I would need to be mainly at the home office.

Entangled ways of product development in the area of cybersecurity #2 - BitSwan
After successfully completing my engineering degree, I finally started working full-time at TeskaLabs just as I initially promised. In addition to data from the world of telecommunications, we started to learn data from the world of logistics in BitSwan, which of course required being able to calculate the cost of transporting some cargo from point A to point B.

Entangled ways of product development in the area of cybersecurity #1 - Asynchronous or parallel?
I started working at TeskaLabs at the beginning of autumn 2017 as a student at the Faculty of Information Technology of CTU. In the job advertisement, I was particularly interested in the fact that it is a small, product-based company that does not focus on just one technology or one programming language.

Don't worry, ASAB and the universe can be fixed
How do my first sprints in TeskaLabs look like? Sheer desperation quickly turns into feelings of illumination and euphoria. And back. I've also made a few new friends and learned a thing or two about flushing metrics. The digital adventure begins.

And the winner is...Go!
What compiled language for a backend development is the right one to move our technological stack to the next level? We've started to look around for a compiled computer language that will enable us to build microservices with higher performance. Now, don't get me wrong, we don't depart from Python at all. It is the extension of the portfolio.

Example of using BSPump with CSV files
Let us say we have a CSV file, no, wait, a lot of CSV files that are coming to our storage directory with flashing speed. We even do not have the slightest notion what names of the files are, the only thing we know is that we need to process their data and deliver them to our database as quickly as possible.

Binary distributions of OpenSSL static libraries
The official source of OpenSSL software is the OpenSSL website. One can download OpenSSL source codes archives and compile them for a given platform. The compilation work can sometimes be quite tedious, especially for exotic platforms. We, at TeskaLabs, set up this page because we frequently compile OpenSSL for various platforms for our internal purposes and this may save some time to other developers.

Key Areas and Best Practices to Focus for Mobile API Security
With APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) becoming a crucial factor in any web or mobile application, security feels more like a journey than a destination. Of all the constituents that encompass an application, API gateway offers easy access points for a hacker to break in and steal your data. A single error in API can cause immense problems for any organization using your API.

What's More Important For Mobile App Developers: Prioritizing Privacy, Security or Ease of Use?
The industry of mobile app development is rising quicker than the speed of light. However, the apps seem to have problems with security and privacy even though they are easy to use. Mobile apps are developed in a few months without regards to security, privacy, or the fact they can easily be breached by hackers. Some companies have known for months about a security issue, but don't do anything until there is a breach.

Software architect's point of view: Why use SeaCat
I've recently received an interesting question from one software architect: Why should he consider embedding SeaCat in his intended mobile application? This turned into a detailed discussion and I realised that not every benefit of SeaCat technology is apparent at first glance. Let me discuss the most common challenges of a software developer in the area of secure mobile communication and the way SeaCat helps to resolve them. The initial impulse for building SeaCat was actually out of frustration of repeating development challenges linked with implementation of secure mobile application communication. So let's talk about the most common challenges and how SeaCat address them.
