Run Watson NLP for Embed on IBM Cloud Code Engine

This blog post is about using the IBM Watson Natural Language Processing Library for Embed on IBM Cloud Code Engine and is related to my blog post Run Watson NLP for Embed on your local computer with Docker. IBM Cloud Code Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform where you can run container images or batch jobs.

Open the door wide open for Watson Assistant with “custom extensions” – an awesome progression

IBM Watson Assistant is a SaaS offering from IBM to build conversational assistants. IBM Watson Assistant is using artificial intelligence which helps to understand users in context, to provide them easy and fast, consistent, and accurate answers across various applications, devices, or channels. IBM Watson Assistant is built on natural language understanding (NLU), natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML). The first version was already very good, and IBM clients and partners were starting to take these advantages; for example Watson Assistant was used at the International Space Station. Here you can find some more details: CIMON brings AI to the International Space Station. Based on the feedback from clients, the IBM development and design team has created a brand new experience and added new functionalities to the service for example they expanded the integration possibilities with extensions. In this blog post I focus especially on custom extensions development and setup.

Using the internal OpenShift container registry to deploy an application

This cheat sheet is an extension to a blog post I made which is called: Configure a project in an IBM Cloud Red Hat OpenShift cluster to access the IBM Cloud Container Registry . In that related blog post we used the IBM Cloud Container registry to get the container images to run our example application. Now in this cheat sheet we will use the Red Hat OpenShift internal container registry and the Docker build strategy to deploy the same example application to OpenShift.

10 Hours of Live Recordings, which are built on Experience, about Application Security

It’s awesome we just created 10 hours of live recordings, which are built on experience, about application security. That learning journey was made by the IBM Developer Hybrid Cloud Build Team from IBM and I am a part of that team. We put together great content for you. By the way, I was responsible for the content ;-). I also has been the moderator for most of the sessions and I also gave sessions by myself. The learning journey is called #ApplicationSecurityLearningJourney.

How to use environment variables to make a containerized Quarkus application more flexible

When you run a containerized application on a container orchestration platform like Kubernetes, Open Shift or with a serverless framework like Knative or Code Engine or on other platforms, it is helpful to pass endpoints to other applications to the containerized application by using environment variables. When the container will be restarted, these variables can be provided to the container and no adjustment in the source code is necessary. You can use configmaps or in Code Engine simple the environment variable itself.
