#ICYMI: Data from 451 Research suggests the growing range and complexity of service providers’ product portfolios could make it harder for enterprises to reap multi-cloud rewards https://goo.gl/EN1noL #Technology #IoT

ICYMI: How Awesome Was 1999?

We were pre-tech bubble. We were pre-pendulum swinging too far towards governance and compliance and corrupting the tooling that was advancing us. We were pre-closing the doors to innovation in the name of safety. And, the best part, The Matrix was playing in theaters.

I promise, I don’t date myself with that movie reference for no reason. I bring up The Matrix because, at the end of the movie, Neo (the main character for those still in grade school when it came out) described a world without constraints. “… [I’m going to show you] a world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries. A world where anything is possible.” This is the tech world today. The promise of The Matrix is being realized by the microservices movement. https://goo.gl/iUhnx5 #DataIntegration #ML

Generic Livechange Event for SAPUI5 Input control

Use cases of this blog/codebase –

* Validate and Update each character as and when the end-user types each character/digit
* The need for a generic framework/APIs
* Re-usable and Scalable codebase

Category: SAPUI5 Development

Code: XML and JavaScript

Files: *.view.xml and *.controller.js or any other utility.js

UI5 Controls:

* sap.m.Input

Events:

* Change, liveChange

Advantages:

* Generic API to Validate and Update Input field as and when the end-user types each character
* Re-usable and Scalable API
