Your (container) secret's safe with me.

January 14, 2020

In a containerized deployment, how do you safely pass secrets like passwords and certificates between containers without compromising their safety? If orchestration means a container can run on any machine in the cluster, how do you minimize who knows your secrets? Liz Rice explores the risks and shares best practices for keeping your secrets safe.

Beyond accidental architecture

January 13, 2020

In many cases, existing architectures represent an accident of circumstances. James Thompson explains why you should move beyond the accidental and introduce intentional architectural thinking to your team, outlining the benefits of deliberate software architecture, from helping newer engineers understand why certain boundaries exist to enabling senior engineers to improve their skills and more.

Bounded contexts for legacy code

January 13, 2020

Monolithic applications often resist the introduction of clearer architectural boundaries. Drawing on a real-world project as an example, James Thompson explains how to implement bounded contexts into such applications in conjunction with normal feature development and maintenance.

Building microservices with ASP.NET Core

January 13, 2020

Microsoft finally has a truly open source, cross-platform development framework that is ideal for building cloud-native microservices: ASP.NET Core. Kevin Hoffman explains how to use ASP.NET Core to build immutable releases with Docker, address real-world concerns like configuration, security, and data access, and implement continuous integration and continuous delivery in the cloud.

Building next-gen edge architecture at Expedia

January 13, 2020

As Expedia refactors its backend services into a finer-grained microservice architecture, frontend applications have begun to be split into smaller applications serving a small number of pages or content on the website. Rick Fast details how Expedia is creating an extremely configurable, self-service edge architecture for routing between frontend applications and managing bot traffic.

Code Detective: How to Investigate Linux Performance Issues

January 13, 2020

What influences a program's performance? Some reasons are quite obvious, like the algorithm implemented and the number of execution cycles, but what about the order in which libraries were linked? Or …

Complex event flows in distributed systems

January 13, 2020

In distributed systems, some business transactions and end-to-end processes stretch across the boundaries of individual services. While event-driven choreography leads to nicely decoupled systems, complex event chains can cause headaches. Bernd Rcker and Martin Schimak explain why transforming certain events into commands is beneficial and how to avoid losing sight of larger-scale flows.

Container zen: 12 steps to enlightenment

January 13, 2020

Nils Magnus outlines the 12 stages of self-awareness that lead to ultimate container enlightenment. It's a long and winding road: while usual suspects like system engineers, developers, and system designers understand container virtualization fairly well, its architectural pattern remains a different cup of tea, and orchestration frameworks and auxiliary tools make it hard to see to the bottom.

Continuous data-centric architecture

January 13, 2020

In the last five years, data has again risen to prominence, with chief data officers, data science, and analytics on the business side and microservices and NoSQL databases on the technology side.
