What this means is that because we can choose between immediate and eventual consistency, we end up with a system that has tunable consistency. Tunable Consistency means that you can set the CL for each read and write request. So, Cassandra gives you a lot of control over how consistent your data is. Comments and thoughts welcome.

Data Consistency in Apache Cassandra — Part 3 was originally published in Software Architecture on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story. To gain all those benefits, you are trading off immediate consistency for eventual consistency. Comments and thoughts welcome.

Here are five considerations every software architect and developer needs to take into account when setting the architectural foundations for a fast data platform. Are there inherent time relationships in the messages that need to be preserved as they travel across the system? Determine requirements first. At least once?

The need to measure outcomes and business value for software development, and the shift from Project to Product , require the deployment of a scalable and turnkey VSM solution. CIO: “I hear that the bottleneck is in our legacy systems, or our needing more developers, or issues with our culture. Me: “So where is your bottleneck?

Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. Look inside a current textbook on software architecture, and youll find few patterns that we dont apply at Amazon. Service-oriented architecture -- or SOA -- is the fundamental building abstraction for Amazon technologies. Comments ().

Over the past few years I have focused much of my learning and work choices around learning about the design of sociotechnical systems?—?how how to design software architectures and organise teams around them. System Role What is the role of a component in the system. I hope you find these variables useful.

Technology systems are difficult to wrangle. Our systems grow in accidental complexity and complication over time. Likewise, the term "architect" didn't enter popular usage to describe a role in the software field until the late 1990s. Architecture begins when someone has a nontrivial problem to be solved.

Building on the Queue-Based Load Leveling Pattern , the Competing Consumer Pattern enables a system to process multiple messages concurrently to optimize throughput, to improve scalability and availability, and to balance the workload. To handle this fluctuating workload, the system can run multiple instances of the consumer service.

By Chris Wolfe , Joey Schorr , and Victor Roldán Betancort Introduction The authorization team at Netflix recently sponsored work to add Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC) support to AuthZed’s open source Google Zanzibar inspired authorization system, SpiceDB. This would be a significant departure from its existing policy based system.

This is both frustrating for companies that would prefer making ML an ordinary, fuss-free value-generating function like software engineering, as well as exciting for vendors who see the opportunity to create buzz around a new category of enterprise software. All ML projects are software projects.

There are thousands of ways we can shape the software systems we build and organise our teams around them. Sociotechnical systems are complex systems formed of complex systems. The products themselves are software systems which grow harder and harder to reason about as they scale and age.
