OpenTelemetry Basics on Heroku Fir

Heroku recently made the next generation platform – Fir – generally available. Fir builds on the strengths of the Cedar generation while introducing a new modern era of developer experience. Fir leverages modern cloud-native technologies to provide a seamless and performant platform.

One of the goals we set out to achieve with Fir is to modernize our platform’s observability architecture. Applications being written today are becoming increasingly more distributed and complex in nature. With this increase in complexity, the need for good observability becomes critical. With solid observability practices in place, it becomes possible to gain deep insights into the internal…

One of the most beloved and enduring traditions that emerged on this new national stage was the telethon. A combination of “television” and “marathon,” a telethon is a broadcast…

Extend Flows with Heroku Compute: An Event-Driven Pattern

This post previously appeared on the Salesforce Architects blog. Event-driven application architectures have proven to be effective for implementing enterprise solutions using loosely coupled services that interact by exchanging asynchronous events. Salesforce enables event-driven architectures (EDAs) with Platform Events and Change Data Capture (CDC) events as well as triggers and Apex callouts, which makes the Salesforce Platform a great way to build all of your digital customer experiences . This post is the first in a series that covers various EDA patterns, considerations for using them, and examples deployed on the Salesforce Platform.

Expanding the event-driven architecture of…
