• Quave Cloud Team

Hey, Filipe here again! I'm writing to announce that zCloud will be renamed to Quave Cloud.

Why? Quave is our company (11 years old) and has always been the entity behind zCloud. We want to leverage our established brand and unify everything under one name.

Nothing will change - the team remains the same, we're still profitable, and we continue to operate independently without investors. The only changes are to our branding and name.

Since its launch, Bun has emerged as a promising solution for developers seeking to optimize the performance of their JavaScript applications. Recently, there has been growing interest in utilizing the Bun runtime in production environments.

With this in mind, conducting a hands-on examination to assess the advantages of using Bun now seems good. Today, we'll use a straightforward load-testing experiment to compare the performance of an Express.js API running on two distinct JavaScript runtimes: Node.js and Bun.

Our analysis will center around the performance evaluation of an endpoint tasked with calculating Fibonacci numbers under load conditions.

Ever thought about how you can often alter the behavior of your app without modifying the code?

I'm sure many of you know this, employing configurations during deployment to adjust the code's behavior.

This means your Docker image remains the same, but your app's behavior differs.

We are very proud of the progress we are making with all of our features.

Our goal is to constantly improve all of our features, and we are thrilled to explain a few changes in two important features: Logs and Env Vars.
