Welcome to the latest edition of Mitrais’ quarterly newsletter.

While the global environment remains challenging, it is refreshing to see that Mitrais and many of our valued clients are not only surviving the conditions, but are indeed forging ahead.

A perfect example is GroupMap, our featured client in this issue. The article details how GroupMap identified opportunities born out of global economic stress, and turned them into a suite of innovative products helping industry maintain “continuous improvement” on a global basis. And, not satisfied with their award-winning products, how they are now reimagining those tools by further enhancing their features and embracing their global customers’ needs. All with the help of their Mitrais team members!

For those with an interest in the technicalities of software development, our Senior Developers have put together a fascinating article on the right ways to implement Microservices Architecture. Boasting the ability to produce applications that feature scalability through smaller code-bases and greatly simplified development and maintenance of full-featured apps, Microservices Architecture is now a hot topic expected to become a multi-billion market over the next few years. Like all revolutionary ideas, though, it’s adoption requires some careful thought and planning to yield optimal results. In this piece, read some of the tips and tricks that Mitrais’ best operators have for successfully implementing Microservices Architecture in your applications to achieve the greatest benefits.

Finally, we dig down on the life experience of Arif Nazar Purwandaru, one of Mitrais elite Technical Evangelists. We learn how his parents once thought that introducing Arif to computers was a big mistake that had ruined his school performance, and how they actually banned him from anything to do with computers. Happily for everyone, though, Arif’s passion and curiosity helped him overcome his parents’ doubts, resulting in his exceptional career in Mitrais.

I hope that you enjoy these articles that all share in a positive and optimistic feel. Until the next newsletter, we wish you and your families continued good health and success.
