Domain-Driven Design (DDD)

Microservices and [Micro]services

The week began as busy as ever. And then I learned that one more task — beyond everything else on my plate — must be accomplished. Which task? The one you are reading. Why? For the record, at Uber, we’re moving many of our microservices to what @copyconstruct calls macroservices (wells-sized services). Exactly b/c testing and maintaining thousands of …

Using XOOM/PLATFORM On AWS Fargate

After Microservices, Does Reactive Still Matter?

I was asked to justify reactive software development and XOOM for teams that have already achieved development and deployment of microservices. Here’s the question: After your team has reached the point of developing microservices, perhaps even successfully strangling a Big Ball of Mud monolith, does reactive still matter, and does XOOM still have relevance to such …
