This blog is a selection of articles aligned with Samber Valley's vision.
Our vision: Mobile web apps will seriously compete with native apps, Mobile web will be based on HTML5 / CSS3 / Javascript, Javascript will also power the server-side mobile web, and noSQL approach will ease the server-side mobile web.
5Cloudy is our Twitter-based newspaper dealing with HTML5 / CSS3 / Javascript / Node.js / noSQL / MongoDB, updated daily.

Web is going mobile so rather than developing different versions of websites,a single version website which adapts itself according to specific devices is the best solution.You know Ethan Marcotte-web designer published an article about responsive web design in 2010 and since then responsive web design has become the hottest topic in web design industry. Whether you like it or not,web is moving beyond desktop and it’s not looking back like Ethan said.So responsive web design will continue to be the trendy topic in the following years. In today’s post we’ve gathered free ebooks in PDF format which are all about responsive web design.I hope you find them useful.
If you are familiar with web design for the last 12 months or more then you might just heard of responsive web design.Well,responsive web design or mobile friendly web design is basically the concept of building a website that allows the layout and elements adapt itself according to the device people are viewing. In today’s post we have gathered jQuery plugins for responsive web design.I know you heard many of them but there are also fresh responsive jQuery plugins in the collection.
One of the themes of our upcoming Structure:Data conference is “putting big data to work,” and there’s no easier way to get started doing so than with a cloud service. You don’t have to buy hardware, you don’t have to manage systems and, in some cases, you don’t need to know the first thing about Hadoop. In September, I profiled six companies doing big data in the cloud, and here are nine more. They’re not providing cloud-based applications (e.g., anti-malware services or site-optimization) that happen to use big data techniques on the backend; these companies providing access to big data resources or analytics engines from which customers can draw their own conclusions.
It’s a truism that we should choose the right tool for the job. Everyone says that. And who can disagree? The problem is this is not helpful advice without being able to answer more specific questions like: What jobs are the tools good at? Will they work on jobs like mine? Is it worth the risk to try something new when all my people know something else and we have a deadline to meet? How can I make all the tools work together? In the NoSQL space this kind of real-world data is still a bit vague. When asked, vendors tend to give very general answers like NoSQL is good for BigData or key-value access. What does that mean for for the developer in the trenches faced with the task of solving a specific problem and there are a dozen confusing choices and no obvious winner? Not a lot. It’s often hard to take that next step and imagine how their specific problems could be solved in a way that’s worth taking the trouble and risk. Let’s change that. What problems are you using NoSQL to solve? Which product are you using? How is it helping you? Yes, this is part the research for my webinar on December 14th, but I’m a huge believer that people learn best by example, so if we can come up with real specific examples I think that will really help people visualize how they can make the best use of all these new product choices in their own systems.

On the 20th floor of a San Francisco skyscraper, a handful of developers are working on a new technology that’s changing the way real-time web apps are built and how they scale. This technology, called Node.js, is being hailed as “the new Ruby on Rails” by some in the developer community. But it’s not a magic bullet, nor is it appropriate for all programming scenarios. Joyent, an SF-based cloud software company, is sponsoring the growth and development of Node. It employs Node creator Ryan Dahl, hosts events and creates tools for the growing Node community. Recently, Mashable visited Joyent to see demos from three startups that are using Node to build web and mobile apps for consumers. In the process, we learned a lot about how and why Node works for the real-time web — and how Node is changing the way the developer community creates the Internet as we know it.
I’ve been working on a helper framework recently, with the goal of providing a flexible means to write finite state machines (FSMs) in JavaScript. I’ve borrowed some ideas from the world of Erlang/OTP (the gen_fsm behaviour is wonderful!), and the result of my efforts thus far is machina.js.
Success of companies – big or small – will increasingly depend on their ability to capture, analyze and gain insights from data. While Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) has always been about collecting, analyzing and reporting of data to support management decision making, the emergence ‘Big Data Analytics’ is going to change EPM as we know it. ‘Big Data Analytics’ is one of the biggest business buzz words of 2012, so let me outline some of my thoughts on how this will change EPM in most companies. In their EPM efforts, most companies are collecting Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and business metrics, analyze them and report the results of their analysis to inform management decision making. Having said that – most companies also struggle to identify the key strategic indicators and often end up reporting a random set of metrics that don’t lead to any real insights and don’t support decision making – but this is by-the-by.
NoSQL databases are often compared by various non-functional criteria, such as scalability, performance, and consistency. This aspect of NoSQL is well-studied both in practice and theory because specific non-functional properties are often the main justification for NoSQL usage and fundamental results on distributed systems like CAP theorem are well applicable to the NoSQL systems. At the same time, NoSQL data modeling is not so well studied and lacks of systematic theory like in relational databases. In this article I provide a short comparison of NoSQL system families from the data modeling point of view and digest several common modeling techniques. To explore data modeling techniques, we have to start with some more or less systematic view of NoSQL data models that preferably reveals trends and interconnections. The following figure depicts imaginary “evolution” of the major NoSQL system families, namely, Key-Value stores, BigTable-style databases, Document databases, Full Text Search Engines, and Graph databases:
This is a two-part blog post that discusses HTML5 WebSocket and security. In this, the first post, I will talk about the security benefits that come from being HTTP-compatible and the WebSocket standard itself. In the second post, Kaazing WebSocket Gateway Security is Strong, I highlight some of the extra security capabilities that Kaazing WebSocket Gateway offers, things that real-world WebSocket applications will want to be fully secure.
Developers these days are spoiled with choice when it comes to selecting an MV* framework for structuring and organizing JavaScript web apps. Backbone, Spine, Ember.js (SproutCore 2.0), JavaScriptMVC… The list of new and stable solutions goes on and on, but just how do you decide on which to use in a sea of so many options? To help solve this problem, TodoMVC was created - a project which offers the same Todo application implemented using MVC concepts in most of the popular JavaScript MV* frameworks of today. Solutions look and feel the same, have a common feature set, and make it easy for you to compare the syntax and structure of different frameworks, so you can select the one you feel the most comfortable with.
On February 23rd, 2012 in front of 200 attendees Peter Lubbers gave an impressive presentation at the meetup of the San Francisco HTML5 User Group that he co-founded 2 years ago, covering HTML5 connectivity topics:
