OpenID Connect establishes a simple, Web-based protocol to exchange trusted authentication and authorization information.
Emerging IT Platforms and Tools: CoAP
One of the open standards communication protocols for the Internet of Things, CoAP uses a Web-based model of devices with their own URLs to support a decentralized, request-response model.
Emerging IT Platforms and Tools: Mapbox
This is an open, mobile-friendly mapping platform which allows developers to add a map and even style it for an application.
Emerging IT Platforms and Tools: Flyway
Makes for painless, automated changes to databases. It's lighter on features compared to competitors, but can be used for multiple projects with low friction.
Emerging IT Platforms and Tools: Appium
Delivers automated testing of mobile web, mobile native and mobile hybrid applications on iOS and Android.
