Suppose you are looking for a juicy and thought-provoking read on Italy’s twentieth-century crucial moments. In that case, I heartily recommend Italica by Giacomo Papi, a significant collection of short stories by prominent Italian writers of the period including the likes of Italo Calvino, Elsa Morante, Beppe Fenoglio, Natalia Ginzburg, and Giorgio Scerbanenco. A short essay introduces each tale. I thoughtfully appreciated these introduct..

CloudQuery and Steampipe have very similar functionalities. The actual difference is with the way they work and the problems they solve. This blog post compares both the tools and helps you answer the question: What should I use - CloudQuery or Steampipe?

jOOQ is mainly known for its powerful type safe, embedded, dynamic SQL capabilities that are made available through code generation. However, a secondary use case of code generation is to use it for stored procedures (possibly exclusively for stored procedures). Stored procedures are powerful ways of moving complex data processing logic to the server. This … Continue reading The Best Way to Call Stored Procedures from Java: With jOOQ →

About fifteen years ago, Casey Treat spoke at our church about goal setting. He explained that a lot of people set a goal of reaching a certain weight and he said the problem with that occurs when you reach that weight.

Most companies and projects are by far not big enough to benefit from microservices, and not good enough to deal with the implications and repercussions. There’s a reason “distributed systems” are hard: it’s the next difficulty level after multi-threaded concurrency — harder to observe, harder to reason about.

I had an interview for a Ruby developer position. As part of a live Rails coding session a class performing operations needed refactoring into supporting services. Let's say the logic in question is query = 'troglodytes troglodytes' response = URI . open( "https://xeno-canto.org/api/2/recordings?query=#{ CGI . escape(query) }" ) if response . status [ 0 ] == '200' body = JSON . load(re....

Over the past years I attended hundreds of interviews. Many candidates proudly told tales on how they develop their projects with a microservice architecture. Often (I don’t want to say “always”, but from my memory I think it actually is “always”) it does not require many questions to see that they used a rocket launcher to kill a mouse. Microservices are hard . Everyone who experienced the pain of operating such an architecture can rela..

One of my favourite podcasts is Hanselminutes by Scott Hanselman. I have been listening to it probably longer than any other podcast. He recently interviewed Roberta Arcoverde from Stack Overflow. She talked about how the architecture of the Stack Overflow site is very different from most other large sites in that it is a self hosted monolithic application.

In the debate of work-life balance versus work-life integration it seems as though balance is winning out over passion as more and more people view life as the hours spent between clocking in and clocking out. Why is this viewpoint dominating and does it lead to a fulfilling life?

A lot of ink is spent on the "monoliths vs. microservices" debate, but the real issue behind this debate is about whether distributed system architecture is worth the developer time and cost overheads. By thinking about the real operational considerations of our systems, we can get some insight into whether we actually need distributed systems for most things. We have all gotten so familiar with virtualization and abstractions between ou..
