FAQ

  1. What is OrbitalSD and how is it useful for me?

OrbitalSD is a blog about frameworks and technologies that help you safely run third-party code inside applications. We cover the best tools, practices, and architectures for extensibility and security.

  1. What technologies are you looking at?

We discuss WebAssembly, Docker, various SDKs, runtime systems (Deno, QuickJS, V8), security models, sandboxing, and more.

  1. What are the usefulness of frameworks for running custom code?

They allow you to extend application functionality, enabling third-party developers to create integrations without compromising security and stability.

  1. What is sandboxing and why is it needed?

Sandboxing is the isolation of executable code so that it cannot harm the underlying system. It is the basis of security when running external scripts.

  1. How to avoid vulnerabilities when working with custom code?

Use permission models, restrict access via RBAC, apply Zero Trust approaches and thoroughly test the execution environment.

  1. What programming languages are supported for running inside applications?

Most often JavaScript and WebAssembly, but a lot depends on the chosen framework or runtime.

  1. Can I integrate your recommendations into my application?

Yes! Our blog helps to understand the principles and choose tools to implement secure execution of custom code.

  1. Do you publish real world cases?

Yes, we analyze examples of successful implementations and describe solutions to problems that arise.
