On the topic of idempotence..we recently made our platform distributed across 4 datacenters using queues. None of us really knew what we were doing. Recognizing this very early on, we made all calls idempotent. Pretty sure that single decision is what made the entire system work.
- mfenniak 13y agoI have absolutely considered adding weights. But, it quickly leads to the idea that my priorities are not necessarily the same as everyone else's, and that leads to user-customizing, and that leads to... well, it got to some cool ideas, but I figured first I should shove this out the door in a simple form and see if people like the concept. If the concept is well-received, I'll continue to develop it and explore other API best practices in a similar manner.
