One sticking point; what if the monolith does not have an endpoint you can call with an http request? What if you have a client that consumes the back end with server rendered pages and no services are exposed with url endpoints? Do you fi

I am in this situation right now. We are frozen in the planning stages of moving a Java monolith toward a micro-service architecture. This seems like a very straight forward understandable approach to help make that happen. I read the artic

Hmm, that's why I have spent every second outside work and my family working my ass off on a startup on the minute chance I create something of enough value that will free me from my m-f 40+. Huge motivator for me. Take that motivato

Yeah, reality sucks doesn't it? For those infinite things we still need people to do, we can't just have some people do all the work while others get to sit around and enjoy.

I think it is great, with everything Paul Graham has to lose, knowing comments like these will be at the top of something he helped create, he still has the courage to say what he believes. Yes, there are many people/politicians that

I have run containers on bare metal and in Amazon. Performance can be noticeably slower in Amazon on machines with similar specifications. A detailed explanation why is in this informative video by Bryan Cantrill https://www.yout

So many people say that but if you can't scale anything stateful what is the point of all of this. Often it is the database that needs to scale the most since business applications spend a lot of time there and much less time actually

I did a quick smoke test to see if Tutum passes muster. My smoke test for this kind of tool is if they have a solution for deploying mongodb as a production level service with sharding or at the very least replica sets. Like so many other “

Do these people not see how easy they have it? I am pretty sure no one would hire me at Mozilla with just php experience then get an interview with y-combinator without a product. I'm guessing he went to Stanford or some other Ivy Le

Criticize Facebook. It sucks. However, arguing that it sucks because the developers are privileged white dudes motivated by making money is not a valid argument. The author even points to an example of a good api from Microsoft. Do you

by dpeterson 13y ago
There is an excellent solution to the author's dilemma. He does not have to use Facebook or its API. That's the great thing about capitalism and the free market. He has a choice. Also, because he is not motivated by money, he c
