Welcome to part 4 of Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization (JDV) running on OpenShift. JDV is a lean, virtual data integration solution that unlocks trapped data and delivers it as easily consumable, unified, and actionable information. JDV makes data spread across physically diverse systems such as multiple databases, XML files, and Hadoop systems appear as a set of tables in a local database.

I’ve written about performing interviews for developers. There is way too much focus on developers improving their “interviewing skills” and not enough on interviewers doing a better job themselves. One of the problems interviewers have is they ask candidates to solve classic computer science problems. I did this when i first started interviewing. It made sense because it was what everyone else did.

While I don’t see a lot of it anymore, XML is still a common data format that people use. I prefer JSON, but I don’t always have a say in how I receive data. Some time ago I wrote a few tutorials on which include parsing XML data with Node.js , parsing XML data with Java , and parsing XML data with PHP. If you’ve been keeping up, I’ve been doing a lot of development with the Go programming language which is why I think it would be a great idea to go over XML in Golang.

Recently I taught my daughters some extremely basic cryptography, and it was a great reminder of how critical it is for security to be usable. There are some great ciphers I could have taught them, but they’re still little, so I started simple. I them the rail fence cipher (some may know it as a zigzag cipher which is probably a better description).

You might have noticed that I’m doing quite a bit of Docker related articles lately. This is because I’ve been exploring it as an option for the future of my personal web applications. As of right now I’m serving several web applications on Digital Ocean under a single Apache instance. As requests come into my server, Apache routes them to the appropriate application via virtual hosts.
