Case Study: a Decade of Microservices at a Financial Firm
Microservices are the hot new architectural pattern, but the problem with “hot” and “new” is that it can take years for the real costs of an architectural pattern to be revealed. Fortunately, the pattern isn’t new, just the name is. So, we can learn from companies that have been doing this for a decade or more.

Deep Diving into EF Core: Q&A with Jeremy Likness
Entity Framework (EF) Core is a cross-platform, extensible, open-source object-database mapper for .NET. Since its first release in 2016, EF Core evolved until reaching its current form: a powerful and lightweight .NET ORM. InfoQ interviewed Jeremy Likness, program manager for .NET Data at Microsoft, to understand more about EF Core and what we should expect for its next release later this year.

Compiled, Typed, Ruby-Inspired Crystal Language is Ready for Production - Q&A with Beta Ziliani
The Crystal language is ready for production, 12 years after inception. Crystal is compiled for performance, typed for safety, and Ruby-like for productivity. Due to the strong type inference, developers need only sparse type annotations. We interviewed the head of the Crystal team on the language tradeoffs, the present features and the language roadmap.

Indestructible Storage in the Cloud with Apache Bookkeeper
At Salesforce, we required a storage system that could work with two kinds of streams, one stream for write-ahead logs and one for data. But we have competing requirements from both of the streams. Being the pioneers in cloud computing, we also required our storage system to be cloud-aware as the requirements of availability and durability are ever more increasing.
