It's time for some spring-cleaning. I decided to delete a large S3 bucket we used for some backups on IONOS Cloud.

Have you ever encountered an issue in Intrexx where most of your backend logic relies on event listeners, such as record insertion, updating, or deleting?

It's a valid approach, but sometimes you may find yourself restricted to calling backend processes via Generic Actions triggered with an AJAX call. In such cases, you might wonder how to send data to those event listeners without duplicating all the functionality in a single Groovy Script Action.

While developing the Sylius connector for Gally, I took a deep dive into the Sylius Grid component. I wanted to hook Gally into the Grid component so that I did not have to rebuild the grid handling logic in the code of the Gally bundle.

In the process of migrating our Hashicorp Nomad workload to our new Nomad cluster, I also tried to simplify our CI pipelines and ran into an issue with Nomad.

Since last year, we have been using the Technology Radar solution built by AOE to power the bitExpert TechRadar.

Nomad version 1.5 comes with Single sign-on (SSO) and OIDC support. As we shifted to an Office 365 environment some time ago, we have been using Entra ID (previously known as Azure Active Directory) as our primary SSO solution whenever possible.

On March 21st, the PHPUG Frankfurt meetup will meet again with some interesting talks and discussions.

Years ago, a good friend showed me httpie as a curl alternative to talk to external APIs. I got hooked immediately by httpie's expressive and intuitive syntax, the colorized and formatted terminal output, and the persistent session's functionality.

When we migrated to Office 365 some years ago, the Microsoft Graph API hooked me immediately. The API exposes almost all information stored in Office 365 and allows us to connect 3rd party tools to the data stored in Office 365.

For about 1 year, we've been using DDEV for most of our Docker setups. While Sylius comes with its own Docker setup, I wanted to see if I could use DDEV to develop Sylius plugins as this would offer me a similar Docker experience to our other projects.
