This article was excerpted from the book “Angular Development With
TypeScript” (see http://bit.ly/1QYeqL0).
The Angular 2 framework is a re-write of popular framework AngularJS. In
short, the newer version has the following advantages over AngularJS.
The code is simpler to write and read It performs better than AngularJS
It’s easier to learn The application architecture is simplified as it’s
component-based
This article contains a high-level overview of Angular highlighting
improvements comparing to AngularJS. For a more detailed architecture
overview of Angular visit product documentation at http://bit.ly/1TQJmwG.
Code Simplification
First of all, an Angular application consists of standard ES6 modules.
Typically one module is one file. There is no need to use a
framework-specific syntax for loading and using modules. Just use the
universal module loader SystemJS (... (more)
If your website receives heavy traffic and you are hosted across multiple
infrastructures across the world or you are using multiple CDNs, then you
ought to use a DNS Load Balancer to reroute traffic for better performance.
While there are some large companies who create their own DNS load balancing
system, which is complex and tedious to implement and manage, some companies
make life easier by opting for ready-made solutions such as those from
Cedexis, Dyn, NSONE, Rage4, etc.
Most of the above mentioned companies are backed by Anycast networks spread
across global locations.

Lots of things are happening there. As of today it’s the liveliest software
ecosystem. The last time I’ve seen such an interesting gathering was 15
years ago in Java.
The Past
Fifteen years ago Java developers were looking down on the JavaScript folks.
It was assumed that JavaScript was only good for highlighting menus and
making an impression that the Web site is current by displaying a running
clock on the page. Mobile phones still had buttons with one digits and three
letters. There were no App stores. Java was promising “Write once run
everywhere”, but now we can see that Ja... (more)

WebRTC Reborn
Download Slide Deck: ▸ Here
WebRTC has had a real tough three or four years, and so have those working
with it. Only a few short years ago, the development world were excited about
WebRTC and proclaiming how awesome it was.
You might have played with the technology a couple of years ago, only to find
the extra infrastructure requirements were painful to implement and poorly
documented. This probably left a bitter taste in your mouth, especially when
things went wrong.
Those in the industry have been working hard to sweeten the deal again -
efforts have been mad... (more)
@CloudExpo Stories By Elizabeth White  WebRTC is the future of browser-to-browser communications, and continues to make inroads into the traditional, difficult, plug-in web communications world.

Topics include voice calling, video chat, P2P file sharing, and use cases that have already leveraged the power and convenience of WebRTC. Mar. 5, 2016 05:45 AM EST Reads: 960 | By Liz McMillan  Your cloud is highly, if not completely, virtualized. So, you need scale and agility that conventional LUN- and volume-based storage, built for physical workloads, just can’t provide. Spending hours mapping applications to LUNs and constantly tuning performance no longer delivers guaranteed performance SLAs and quality of service (QoS). Even after that, you still lack visibility in a multi-tenant, multi-hypervisor environment, and resorting to guesswork in planning and troubleshooting certainly ...
