BBVA API Market
It does so through two of its leading professionals in the field of DevOps: Francisco Froufe and Darío Fernández, members of the BBVA API_Market platform team.
Both participate in the talk ‘Containers: Usage and Scalability given by David Sanz, Solutions Architect at AWS. Docker container technology based on a software platform that enables rapid application creation, testing and deployment. Docker packages software in standardized units called containers that include everything needed for the software to run.
Álvaro Barbero, Chief Data Scientist at the Knowledge Engineering Institute (IIC), explained to BBVA API_Market that Docker “is changing the way software development is being done”. According to Barbero, the only Spanish finalist in the Big Data World Championship (TEXATA), software development with this technology is becoming extremely agile, since “it reduces the time required to deploy applications and in terms of maintenance issues. Now it takes us closer to the paradigm of making large apps based on much smaller pieces that communicate with each other.”
BBVA API_Market presents its best practices with ECS containers in a docker environment in the track ‘Creating Solutions in AWS’, one of the seven different sessions in which more than 35 sessions are included, covering subjects such as artificial intelligence, IoT, Big Data, Serverless and DevOps, among others. Without a doubt, an ideal event to learn first hand the best practices in the uses and deployments of these technologies.
In addition to those already mentioned, there are other speakers to be heard, such as Werner Vogels, CTO, Amazon.com and Miguel Alava, Director, Amazon Web Services. The AWS agenda includes all the details of an event that’s being held at the North Convention Center and IFEMA Hall 10.
Taking a customer through the entire buying process until it is formalized is an arduous journey and one that faces the constant possibility of the customer leaving. However, there are ways to make the buying decision happen if you are given facilities such as agile, secure financing.
In a connected world, APIs are the glue that keeps all the parts that form our day-to-day lives in place. The same way the power of glue depends on the material it is used on and the knowledge of its properties, APIs are only as useful as their documentation allows for.
There are different solutions to monitor the performance of an API, in terms of traffic, quality and speed of the answers it provides. Detecting faults in the code or quantifying the generated revenues are also some of the options offered by these useful tools.
