The microservices era has been good for software architecture. But, the over-focus on micro has detracted from the true benefits of microservices which are about improving the quality and speed of development. There is no need to redesign and rewrite your system to be compliant with the latest architecture buzz word.

Read CL = ONE gives you benefit of speed, Cassandra only contacts one closest/fastest replica node, so throughput of the read request will be lower so performance will be higher. Read CL = ALL gives you immediate consistency as it reads data from all replica nodes and merges them, means keeps the most current data.

Ideally, all of our teams would be delivering at maximum speed and would all be heading in the same direction, highly-aligned with business goals. Unfortunately, we need to balance speed and alignment, and how we make this trade-off is not clear because not all alignment has the same cost. Aligned Autonomy ?

Here’s a typical telematics architecture for processing telemetry from a fleet of trucks: Each truck today has a microprocessor-based sensor hub which collects key telemetry, such as vehicle speed and acceleration, engine parameters, trailer parameters, and more. Solution: Real-Time Digital Twins.

We deployed these enhancements gradually over time to ensure that our users didn’t experience any disruptions, but instead only a consistent improvement of their site speed. While some noticeable progress was made, it was challenging to implement significant changes just for the sake of speed. Creating A Performance Culture.

I’ve been disappointed for a long time with the way in which companies organise software development teams. I remember as a young, naive software developer, I assumed there would be structured processes and patterns similar to those used for designing a software architecture. A clear warning sign.

This can become delicate when the mindsets of each teams are optimising for different things, most commonly speed vs reliability. Engineering for Speed and Reliability It shouldn’t be treated as a law that teams will clash when there is a dependency between their products, even if there is a big difference in mindset.

Organisations maximising the advantages provided by microservices tend to be organisations which view microservices not just as a technical tool, but a sociotechnical tool.The way software systems are shaped determines the communication paths and the coupling between development teams. As a consequence, we also have subservient teams?

IBM had launched the trademarked Personal Computer in 1981 using an open architecture of widely available components from 3rd party sources such as Intel and the fledgling Disk Operating System from an unknown firm in Seattle called Microsoft.

High-speed networks through 5G may represent the next generation of cord cutting. Rural connectivity is a persistent problem; many rural users (and some urban users) are still limited to dial-up speeds.
