Most people on here dislike Azure because they don't buy into the Microsoft ecosystem, which is absolutely understandable, but if you do buy into the ecosystem, Azures really pretty great. AAD ties everything together (this is a pro or

"Granted this was a couple years ago and running dotnet framework, so perhaps things have improved" - I think this explains the differences in our opinions on .Net, as I'm from the opposite side of the spectrum having only wo

Unless you're working on a SOTA HFT application where you're optimising your latency by the nanosecond, I can't see modern .Net/F#/C# being a problem in production. Given that Bing[1] and Azure Active Directory[2] r

Azure monitor ping web tests are free and unlimited [0] and wont violate any terms of service, plus you can add in much more complex features from servers all over the world if you so wish. This probably sounds like a bit of an advert for A

The point about not giving back is not valid in the case of AWS which has upstreamed many of its changes to elasticsearch owned repos under the onerous elasticsearch CLA. This is also true of many FOSS projects which AWS, Microsoft, Google

I'm also curious as to whether this is true. From what I understand and can gather from tech talks from large firms, it is common (up to and beyond petabyte scale) to use ceph clusters purely consisting of SSDs and HDDs (no tape) to st

India is a more unique market due to the extremely high number of Hindus, who do not eat beef due to the revered status of the cow. This has a significant impact on the provisioning of products, as McDonalds would not be able to survive on

This is definitely an area of recent improvements, and I don't think modern .net (.net core 3.1 - .net 5) is comparable to older school .net here. Whilst GC isnt quite on JVM level yet (no serious custom GC's afaik), the .net team

Dapr is designed to offer this afaik ( https://github.com/dapr/docs/blob/master/concepts/actors/REA... ). It uses GRPC and HTTP to allow clients and services of the virtual actors in various lang
