The Perfect Pair: Digital Twins and Predictive Maintenance
Businesses are moving towards developing a predictive maintenance model using digital twins that mirror their real-life counterparts. In this article, the author looks at digital twins, and provides an example of how to build one.

Pathpida Brings Types to Next.js and Nuxt.js Dynamic Routing with Zero Configuration
Pathpida is a library for TypeScript projects to collect dynamic routes in one place. It is a tedious task to do manually. This helps check the existence of routes in large web apps. Pathpida is optimized for Next.js (React) and Nuxt.js (Vue). Pathpida can be added to existing Next.js and Nuxt.js projects without configuration.

Serverless Functions for Microservices? Probably Yes, But Stay Flexible to Change
When designing cloud-native systems, it is important to accommodate freedom to change deployment strategy, from FaaS to containers or VMs, for potentially significant savings on cloud bills.

Saga Orchestration for Microservices Using the Outbox Pattern
The outbox pattern, implemented via change data capture, is a proven approach for addressing the concern of data exchange between microservices. The saga pattern, as demonstrated in this article, is useful for data updates that span multiple microservices.

Software Systems Need Skin in the Game
Consequential decisions need to be taken by the people who pay for the consequences, by the people with skin in the game, and modern software practices need to reinforce this idea. On-call engineering is the quintessential modern engineering practice to create skin in the software development game.

Boosting WebAssembly Performance with SIMD and Multi-Threading
Early implementations of WebAssembly's SIMD and multi-threading proposals show that WebAssembly is narrowing the gap with native performance, by using SIMD instructions and multicore CPUs. Significant performance improvements have been observed in compute-intensive tasks (machine-learning, bio-informatics, scientific computing).

The Future of Data Engineering
Chris Riccomini examines the current and future states of the art in data pipelines, data streaming, and data warehousing. He presents a six-stage evolution that data ecosystems follow, from a simple monolith to a complex data-microwarehouse architecture as the data engineers who manage them solve problems and clarify their roles as infrastructure engineers, rather than data stewards.

Microservices from the Trenches: Lessons, Benefits, Challenges, and Mistakes
Nicky Wrightson, from Skyscanner, hosted a panel at QCon London with participants who have moved from the monolith to microservices and in some cases back again. They share their experience with microservices on production, and also strong opinions on monorepos, on operating distributed systems, and on the best way to structure an organization to make a success of this architecture.

Testing Quarkus Web Applications: Component & Integration Tests
Quarkus is a full-stack, Kubernetes-native Java framework made for Java virtual machines (JVMs) and native compilation. Instead of reinventing the wheel, Quarkus uses well-known enterprise-grade frameworks backed by standards/specifications and makes them compilable to a binary using Graal VM. This article focuses on using some of the Quarkus testing facilities.
