Multi-Runtime Microservices Architecture
Best practices have emerged around “microservice” architecture and “12-factor app” design. As cloud, containers, and container orchestrators (.g. Kubernetes) have become popular, new solutions to address common integration principles have emerged. This article discusses the approach of using "mecha" components to provide enterprise integration pattern functionality for microservices.

Service Mesh Ultimate Guide 2020: Managing Service-to-Service Communications
This online guide aims to answer pertinent questions for software architects and technical leaders, such as: what is a service mesh? Do I need a service mesh? How do I evaluate the different service mesh offerings? In software architecture, a service mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer for facilitating service-to-service communications between microservices, often using a sidecar proxy.

Privacy Architecture for Data-Driven Innovation
This article lays out how you build an internal data governance architecture early in the ingestion phase, which enables you to allocate risk to data and identify such data in your systems. You can then protect the data accordingly. The second half of this article lays out various techniques to share data in a privacy-conscious manner.

Three Key Success Factors for Improving Test Automation Outcomes
Test automation is crucial in the DevOps world and vitally important even if not taking a DevOps approach, and good test automation requires careful thought and design from the architecture onward. Tests need to be fully automated, and that automation needs to be stable; no test cases should fail for reasons other than issues in the system(s) under test.
