The World Has Changed, and We Need To Adapt The world has gone through a tremendous transformation in the last fifteen years. Cloud and microservices changed the world. Previously, our application was using one database; developers knew how it worked, and the deployment rarely happened. A single database administrator was capable of maintaining the database, optimizing the queries, and making sure things worked as expected.

At the time of writing, 99.9% of pages on the web include at least one image. The median image-weight per page landed at 881KB in 2022 , which is more than HTML, CSS, JS, and fonts combined! And while images do not block rendering (unless you do something silly ), it’s important to consider how we offer a reasonably pleasant experience while users are waiting for images to load.

Kerberos is a secure authentication protocol for networked systems. It was developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and was first released in the 1980s. The protocol provides secure authentication of users and services, allowing them to communicate over an insecure network such as the Internet. Kerberos uses secret-key cryptography to secure communications and relies on a trusted third-party authentication server known as the Key Distribution Center (KDC).
