Essential Tools for Cloud Native Application Development

Navigating CLOUD acceleration with Mearas Technologies

The popularity cloud applications have been gaining is not new news. Gartner has predicted that by 2025, 85% of organizations worldwide will have adapted to cloud solutions in some way. This number signifies how great the impact of exploring and taking steps towards cloud enhancement plays. Working on building a cloud ecosystem that aligns with your needs is what will set your business apart in terms of operational efficiency in the coming years. Not only is the number of organizations migrating to the cloud high, but as per the same study, it is also stated that over 95% of the new-age digital workloads will be deployed on cloud-native platforms which is a huge jump from the previous 30% in 2021. Cloud native applications utilize microservices as opposed to single-block structures. These applications bring with them cost-saving benefits as hardware is not to be acquired and only licensing, maintenance, and storage costs are to be considered.

Peaking in for an overview...

Cloud native applications are container based and allow isolation within the cloud environment while helping you separate the microservices, ensuring they do not interfere with each other. API plays an essential role when working with cloud native application development. These APIs connect the microservices and containers on which these cloud native applications are running. The function of an API here is to facilitate better maintenance and security. 

When working with cloud native applications, several tools can be used to maximize development and upgrade to modernize more efficiently.

Mearas Technologies holds industry experience in helping businesses grow with cloud and optimize cloud business value.  Our experts apply well-crafted solutions and take a consultative approach to cloud deployment, choosing the best path for migrating to the cloud. Below are a few tools that are important when considering cloud native applications. 

Fixed a few punctuations and changed the placement of the words. Just a suggestion. The shorter and impactful the sentence is the more clarity you get. 

CICD-

CICD in cloud computing stands for continuous integration and continuous deployment. As the name suggests it is made of two components, CI and CD. Cloud integration (CI) is the pre-set for releasing a code into the cloud environment. It is the building, preparation, and testing of the code. Whereas CD is when the code is released, and its deployment is monitored. CICD is what helps an organization to streamline and provide speed to cloud native application development.

Kubernetes

Kubernetes is a technology that helps establish a foundation that builds coordination, supporting existing apps to help execute faster. Being an open-source system Kubernetes is widely used for automation and containerization of applications. All in all, it is a cloud-native platform that helps organizations build scalable, flexible, and dynamic cloud models.

Server mesh

A server mesh is an addition to the networks of cloud native applications. It is inculcated as a platform layer rather than an application layer. A server mesh provides additional security and features that allow the organization to monitor and observe the use of the solutions across. 

You might want to mention about DevOps too. It is a strong keyword and essential for cloud-native development .

DevOps

A step further from CICD is the integration of DevOps.. It is essentially an environment allowing a team to collaborate and work together using different tools and solutions simultaneously. It increases the speed and security of the software development process. The improved time to market and higher productivity make it an integral tool in cloud-native application development.

Conclusion

Cloud solutions and cloud-native platforms are impactfully reshaping the future of businesses globally. The tools that enhance the functionality of the development platform as we discussed above of CICD, Kubernetes, server mesh and many more are crucial aspects to enhance security and enable scalability. These tools are here to help organizations embrace effective and efficient cloud deployment all while they allow them to position themselves for achieving the set goals and aim for success in the evolving landscape of cloud applications.
