Minimum Viable Architecture in Practice: Creating a Home Insurance Chatbot
Even a simple application, like the one described in this article, needs a minimum viable product (MVP) and a minimum viable architecture (MVA). This is the second article in a series on MVA.

How Do We Utilize Chaos Engineering to Become Better Cloud-Native Engineers?
Engineers these days are closer to the product and the customer needs—there is still a long way to go and companies are still struggling with how to get engineers closer to their customers to understand in-depth what their business impact is: what do they solve, what’s their influence on the customer, and what is their impact on the product?

A Minimum Viable Product Needs a Minimum Viable Architecture
Creating a Minimum Viable Architecture as part of an MVP helps teams to evaluate the technical viability and to provide a stable foundation for the product that can be adapted as the product evolves.

Evolving DevSecOps to Include Policy Management
A thorough implementation of policy management tools is required for effective compliance and security management in a DevOps environment. Companies that accept policy management in DevSecOps as a way of development and have adopted some level of policy management best practices tend to operate more efficiently.

Go Native with Spring Boot and GraalVM
Spring Boot 3 & Spring Framework 6, due in late 2022, will have built-in support for native Java. For Spring Framework 5.x & Spring Boot 2.x, Spring Native is the way to go. Spring Native provides integrations for Spring's vast ecosystem of libraries. It also has a component model that allows you to extend native compilation support for other libraries.

The What and Why of Programmable Proxies
A question which gets often asked is “What is a programmable proxy, and why do I need one?” This article tries to answer this question from different perspectives. We will start with a brief definition of what a proxy is, then discuss how proxies evolved, explaining what needs they responded to and what benefits they offered at each stage. Finally, we discuss several aspects of programmability.

Why You Should Care about Software Architecture
Software development teams have resisted "big upfront designs" in favor of architectural designs emerging from self-organizing teams, which can lead to a mindset that software architecture is not really that important. Greater awareness of the implicit decisions they are making, and forcing these decisions to be made explicitly, can help development teams make better, more informed decisions.

Reducing Cognitive Load in Agile DevOps Teams Using Team Topologies
In this article we will be sharing our experience from 12 months of adopting certain management and organisational insights from the book Team Topologies. It explores how we identified areas of responsibility and assigned those into mostly customer-facing domains which could be given to our teams. It shows how an inverse Conway manoeuvre can be used to improve the architecture.

Chaos Engineering and Observability with Visual Metaphors
This article introduces a new actor for visualising chaos engineering and observability: metaphors. It provides the conceptual foundations of chaos engineering and observability, presents a state of art of visualisation techniques available in the market and shows how treemaps, gauge charts, geocentric and city metaphors can enrich the spectrum of the visual strategies to observe the chaos.

Getting Started to Quarkus Reactive Messaging with Apache Kafka
How data is processed/consumed nowadays is different from how it was once practiced. In the past, data was stored in a database and it was batch processed for analytics. Apache Kafka is a distributed event store and stream-processing platform for storing, consuming, and processing data streams in real-time. In this post, we’ll learn how to produce and consume data using Apache Kafka and Quarkus.

Design-First Approach to API Development: How to Implement and Why It Works
With the rapid growth of the API industry, developers and technology leaders alike need to know how to create a successful and scalable API program that will drive business value. Developers should consider prioritizing a design-first approach to building APIs which will ensure a positive experience for all stakeholders.

Designing Secure Tenant Isolation in Python for Serverless Apps
Software as a Service (SaaS) has become a very common way to deliver software today. While providing the benefits of easy access to users without the overhead of having to manage the operations themselves, this flips the paradigm and places the responsibility on software providers for maintaining ironclad SLAs, as well as all of the security and data privacy requirements.
