14 Things I Wish I’d Known When Starting with MongoDB
I’ve been a database person for an embarrassing length of time, but I only started working with MongoDB recently. When I was starting out with MongoDB, there are a few things that I wish I’d known about. With general experience, there will always be preconceptions of what databases are and what they do. In hopes of making it easier for other people, here is a list of common mistakes.

How the TOGAF Standard Serves Enterprise Architecture
Any architect working with large enterprise systems has probably looked for guidance on how to manage the complexity and communicate with various stakeholders. This introductory overview of the TOGAF standard explains the structure of the framework, as well as discusses the benefits of using enterprise architecture to manage complex systems.

Refactoring to a Deeper Model
Paul Rayner uses a case study to demonstrate how refactoring your code can lead to a deeper understanding of your domain model. Through common code refactorings, combined with the implementation of patterns, the codebase became more cohesive and easier to reason about, reducing the time to perform some common tasks from weeks or months to just hours.

A Critique of Resizable Hash Tables: Riak Core & Random Slicing
This fall, Wallaroo Labs will be releasing a large new feature set to our distributed data stream processing framework, Wallaroo. One of the new features requires a size-adjustable, distributed data structure to support growing & shrinking of compute clusters. It might be a good idea to use a distributed hash table to support the new feature, but what distributed hash algorithm should we choose?

The Argument for WCF Hosting in .NET Core
Should WCF Hosting be Supported in .NET Core? To a lot of people this seems like a strange question; the answer is obviously... yes? no? Well actually it is quite contentious with people on both sides of the issue fiercely arguing for their position. We’ll try to unpack the debate and explain the arguments on both sides.

Microservices from a Startup Perspective
When starting a journey to microservices, knowing what to consider might be overwhelming. No golden rule that is easily applicable exists. Every journey is different, since every organization is facing different circumstances. In this article I am sharing some lessons learned and challenges from a startup perspective, and what I would do differently the next time introducing microservices.
