Way back in 1996, when web browsing was novel and central processing still ruled the roost of enterprise IT, The Open Group was formed from the merger of the Open Software Foundation and X/Open. This October marks the 25th anniversary of remarkable achievements in the technology standards arena by The Open Group. Beginning with a focus as the publisher of the single UNIX specification technical standard and steward of the UNIX trademark, the organization has grown to more than 850 members in over 50 countries -- and it leads the field and technology standard services, certifications, research, and training.

The speed and complexity of microservices-intense applications often leave their developers in the dark. The creators too often struggle to track and visualize the actual underlying architecture of their distributed services. The designers, builders, and testers of modern API-driven apps, therefore, need an ongoing and instant visibility capability into the rapidly changing data flows, integration points, and assemblages of internal and third-party services. Thankfully, an open-source project to advance the sophisticated distributed tracing and observability platform called Hypertrace is helping. Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes. Read a full transcript or download a copy. Stay with us here as BriefingsDirect explores the evolution and capabilities of Hypertrace and how an early adopter in the online payment suite business, Razorpay, has gained new insights and deeper understanding of their overall services components. To learn how Hypertrace discovers, monitors, visualizes, and optimizes increasingly complex services architectures, please welcome Venkat Vaidhyanathan, Architect at Razorpay in Bangalore, India, and Jayesh Ahire, Founding Engineer at Traceable AI and Product Manager for Hypertrace. The discussion is moderated by Dana Gardner, Principal Analyst at Interarbor Solutions. Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes. Read a full transcript or download a copy. Sponsor: Traceable AI.

The rapidly expanding use of application programming interfaces (APIs) to accelerate application development and advanced business services has created a vast constellation of interrelated services -- often now called the API Economy. Yet the speed and complexity of this API adoption spree has largely outrun the capability of existing tools and methods to keep tabs on the services topology -- let alone keep these services secure and resilient. Stay with us here as BriefingsDirect explores a new platform designed from the ground up specifically to define, manage, secure, and optimize the API underpinnings for so much of what drives today’s digital businesses. Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes. Read a full transcript or download a copy. To learn more about how Traceable AI aims to make APIs reach their enormous potential safely and securely, please welcome Sanjay Nagaraj, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and Co-Founder at Traceable AI. The interview is moderated by Dana Gardner, Principal Analyst at Interarbor Solutions. Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes. Read a full transcript or download a copy. Sponsor: Traceable AI.
