Postgres Handles More Than You Think
Thinking about scaling beyond Postgres with a data store like Redis or Elasticsearch? Think again before adopting a complex infrastructure. Postgres can scale for heavy loads and offers powerful features which are not obvious at first sight. For example, it's possible to enable in-memory caching, text search, specialized indexing, and key-value storage. Article

Q&A with Cyrille Martraire on the Book Living Documentation
Cyrille Martraire argues that we should rethink how we work with documentation when building software systems — we should embrace documentation that evolves at the same pace as the code. In the book, he describes the concepts and ideas that are the base for living documentation and uses practical examples on how documentation that is always up-to-date can be created.

Using Java to Orchestrate Robot Swarms
Ocado Technology uses state-of-the-art robotics to power highly automated fulfillment centres. To orchestrate the robot swarms and maximise every bit of efficiency from the warehouses, they've developed a control system analogous to an air traffic control system. This article covers decisions regarding the language, development principles, and architecture choices.
