Nobody loves to work on legacy code because it can be a confusing endeavor; at best, it’s time-consuming. But do we now live with the huge repercussions and costs of retaining and utilizing legacy codes as they are? Legacy code is usually always associated with technical debt—the cost of achieving fast release and optimal speed-to-market time; however, at the expense of providing quality and durable code that will still need to be revamped later.

Picture by Adrian — Ka’anapali sunset 2023 There’s been a lot of discussion about platforms recently, I talked about why I think it’s a current hot meme on the WTF Podcast with Charles Humble recently, and Sam Newman just wrote a blog post “ Don’t call it a platform ”. What I want to cover in this blog post is how I think platforms should be structured, and why it’s always plural, there isn’t one platform or one platform team.

Cosmos DB can be a good candidate for a key-value store. Cosmos DB is a multimodal database in Azure that supports schema-less storage. By default, Cosmos DB containers tend to index all the fields of a document uploaded. We can limit the index properties only to id and partitionkey to make the container a pure key-value store. Prohibiting other fields to be indexed increases performance and reduces RU to query point records.

Several people asked me this question: Could we get Node metrics inside of a container? Usually, this comes from the fact that PMM or standalone people run node_exporter inside a container. PMM does it as a sidecar along with many other exporters to monitor DBs, and node_exporter comes out of the box as a default one. So people could see accurate data on dashboards, like Memory and CPU, that node_exporter reads inside the container.
