Welcome to ELEKS Labs! Here you can read about our most recent R&D experiments and our opinion on the latest industry trends. Discover actionable insights and best practices for software development and innovation.
In the era of digitalization, the main focus of software vendors has shifted to the optimization of the product delivery lifecycle process where testing gets exposed too. And it is because of the slow performance and excessive resource consumption that classical software testing approaches became inefficient. This gave us a huge drive towards finding a […]
Wearables will greatly influence our lives in the near future, and we at ELEKS strongly believe in it. By combining great engineering ideas, delightful design and fashion, they can provide extra data and value that were not available to people before. And companies understand this perfectly clear. Here’s what Google found out when they analysed […]
In the previous article, we discussed networking in Advanced Load Balancer. Today, we’ll discuss how to apply Go bindings to C++ libraries, solve interesting issues with Go and finally compare building a Load Balancer with GO and with C++. Chapter 6. Working with C++ Libraries One of our objectives was to have the ability to […]
Intro For years now, efficient middleware solutions have been implemented mainly in C++. Because no other language allowed using high-level abstractions and low-level system programming at the same time, we at ELEKS have mainly been developing and implementing load balancing solutions using C++. Until now. Until Go, which emerged as an experiment of three Google […]
The scope of data science solutions grows exponentially each day. It is not surprising if you think of them as tools designed to meet your specific business needs and optimize particular business processes. Data science helps companies make better decisions, and recommender systems help data scientists succeed in it. Recommender systems are tools designed for […]
How can you tell a programmer from a musician? Ask them what C# is. Since the early 1950s, when the humans finally managed to make an electronic machine sing, the computers have been gradually becoming a helpful and versatile tool in audio production. Nowadays, thanks to digital synthesizers, VSTi instruments and digital audio workstations, you […]
Testing is one of the most important parts of software development. And Android applications are not an exception. When writing code, you should review it and think how it will be tested afterwards. Let’s imagine a situation where you need to cover your fully completed project with tests. It’s not that simple. Probably, your code […]
A couple of months ago, we started a major redesign of our blog. Since the new theme required a much higher level of customizability, we had to migrate the thing from Blogger to WordPress and choose a new hosting. Having played around with Windows Azure for quite a lot in the past, we decided to […]
Logs are a critical part of any system, they provide vital information about the application and answer questions on what the system is doing and what has happened. Most of the processes running on the system generate logs in one form or other. For convenience, these logs are often collected in files on a local […]
While the whole world is dealing with the aftermath of the Heartbleed Bug, major online services begin to forcibly log users out and encourage them to change their passwords as soon as possible. As a result, millions of people on the Internet will face the problem of coming up with new memorable passwords for their […]
