@gunnarmorling @unmeshjoshi It’s a fine work from @unmeshjoshi

Right on time for the holidays: got my copy of @unmeshjoshi's "Patterns of Distributed Systems". Can't wait to dive into this one 🤓.

@harshmadhusudan If this is possible, it’s a game changer for electric vehicles. Range has been always a limiting factor for many people to consider electric

1,200-km range, 10-min charge: Toyota near solid-state battery breakthrough. business-standard.com/industry/auto/… Mass production of solid-state batteries may start by 2027 or 2028. Automaker recently said it has reached a breakthrough that could halve the cost and size of these batteries.

@themsaid @OliverNybroe How many services/functions u deploy and how do u ensure the horizontal and vertical scaling for these services

@OliverNybroe We rotate the servers every few weeks to apply security patches and upgrades. This takes roughly 15 minutes. P99 dropped from 900ms to 300ms. Deployment time is more or less the same.

One month since switching from Lambda to EC2. Cost savings are hundreds of thousands of dollars on annual basis. We haven't used reserved instances yet, and I'm convinced that by moving a few more endpoints from PHP to Go, we could reduce the number of instances to half.

@gwenshap Looking forward! Love the promo

My first job was building SaaS (I'm so old that they were called ASPs back then). The database was our biggest problem. So I spent days, nights, and weekends on this for years. Our DB vendor kept telling us, "Look, no one else is doing what you do. We are not built for this." 24 years and many SaaS companies later, and DBs barely changed! DBs are *still* not built for this, and engineers *still* spend days, nights, and weekends making DBs work for their SaaS. Enough is enough. Let's fix this once and for all.

@gunnarmorling Sometimes both. Mockito for unit tests and test containers for integration test

📊 You're testing the business logic of your database-backed application. For your DAOs (if you have any), do you mock them (e.g. with Mockito), manually create fake implementations (e.g. based on collections), or keep them as-is (e.g. using Testcontainers to spin up a DB)?

Hey Twitter community! Looking for recommendations on the best and open-source graph databases from your experience. 📊🔍 What are your top picks and why? Thanks ! #GraphDatabases #OpenSource

@gunnarmorling Ofcourse, its micro-batching in disguise. Secret is revealed diluting the excitement of building real time systems 😃

Dang.

@TheDanicaFine Apache Flink @ApacheFlink

Curious to hear from folks, besides #apacheKafka, what are your favorite #streaming technologies? 🤔 #streamingdata #eventstreaming #streamingtechnology #apacheFlink #apacheSpark #apachePulsar

@gunnarmorling It’s a never ending conversation. I guess devs agree with your opinion but just keep on discussing for fun 😊

Crazy thought, I know, I know--but how about we accept that both microservices and monoliths have their place?

@PeterCorless @startreedata @ApachePinot @confluentinc @streamnativeio @redpandadata @debezium @EstuaryDev @ApacheFlink @Decodableco @databricks @apachespark_ @dyaffe Pretty comprehend list for Data Capture, ingestion, Streaming and real time analytics

I spy with my little eye... a @startreedata logo + @ApachePinot! Plus so many other favorite techs: Streaming: @confluentinc, @streamnativeio, @redpandadata Data Capture: @debezium, @EstuaryDev Transforms: @ApacheFlink, @Decodableco, @databricks, @apachespark_ cc: @dyaffe

@TheNJDevOpsGuy To know that - you should try spinning K8s cluster on VMs ☺️

I've been fighting with EKS all day. What was that thing that everyone says? Managed Kubernetes Services makes k8s easier?

@maciejwalkowiak @springboot Depends on project reuirements etc. To your question - currently Kafka, SQS.

Question to folks who use @springboot in production - which message broker do you use, if any? RabbitMQ, Kafka, SQS, Kinesis, JMS, something else?

@gunnarmorling It depends on many other backend systems API interacts with. But typically I target for < 100 ms

Which response times do folks typically aim for these days for user-facing services they run? Say, "p99.9 < 50 ms" -- would that be typical? Ambitious? Lazy? Would love to learn about common practices for tracking and managing API performance 🤓.

Worst experience with Air India @airindiain at @DelhiAirport connecting flight. No proper response #AirIndia #badcustomerservice

@gunnarmorling Deleting seems like simple option

Randomly failing tests are a huge killer of motivation and spirit in a team. You may not be able to get rid of them all at once, but you should have a strategy for getting there in a timely manner. E.g. "Every Friday, everyone fixes one flaky test, by stabilizing or deleting it".

@gunnarmorling Lol.. That’s true 😊

Cross-shard joins in distributed datastores are like that one weird uncle at family parties: nobody really loves them, but then, it just wouldn't be a good party without them.

@harshmadhusudan @ShashiTharoor @sardesairajdeep @businesstoday @IndiaToday Loved your arguments.. They were crisp, straightforward, backed by facts, no nitpicking, clarity. No nonsense, beating around.. I felt all your views are non-biased and resonates with most of Indians.

I'm starting a newsletter. Link to articles relevant to developers who are building Infra SaaS, Control Planes and similar projects. I need a name. So far we have: - Hacking SaaS - SaaS Engineering News - LGTM - Ship It Any ideas? preferences?
