Exploring Azure Service Fabric Mesh: A Platform for Building Mission Critical Microservices
Azure has released a preview of Service Fabric Mesh, a platform targeted at microservice developers who do not want the operational responsibility of running an underlying orchestration platform. InfoQ recently sat down with Chacko Daniel, principal technical PM at Microsoft, to explore the details.

The Serverless Sea Change
This article defines and explains how serverless is different from other application architectures and then walks through a "proof" of sorts to show that serverless application architectures, when done properly, are superior to non-serverless architectures. Finally, it concludes with a number of rules of thumb to help architects and developers realize the benefits of serverless.

Will Cloud Computing Kill Open Source Development?
While open source development is not going to disappear, the future of commercial open source is not very promising. Cloud providers are adopting open source software without necessarily adding value, or supporting future development. No industry consensus exists on the best way to fund open source development. Many continue to believe that open source software should be free.

Getting Started with Istio Service Mesh Routing
In the following tutorial, we will use Istio to demonstrate one of the most powerful features of service meshes: “per request routing.” This feature allows the routing of arbitrary requests that are marked by selected HTTP headers to specific targets, which is possible only with a (OSI) layer 7 proxy. No layer 4 load balancer or proxy can achieve this functionality.

Stateful Service Design Considerations for the Kubernetes Stack
At this summer’s QCon in New York, Jonas Bonér delivered one of the most popular talks of the conference with his focus on Designing Events-First Microservices. In this InfoQ Q&A, we asked Bonér to explain how “bringing bad habits from monolithic design” is a road to nowhere for service design, and where he sees his Akka framework fitting in the cloud-native stack.

How to Source Control Your Databases for DevOps
A robust DevOps environment requires having continuous integration for every component of the system. But far too often, the database is omitted from the equation. In this article, we discuss the unique aspects of databases, both relational and NoSQL, in a successful continuous integration environment.

Who Is Running My Kubernetes Pod? The Past, Present, and Future of Container Runtimes
Container runtime choices have grown over time to include other options beyond the popular Docker engine. The Open Container Initiative (OCI) has successfully standardized the concept of a container and container image in order to guarantee interoperability between runtimes. This article looks at the past, present, and future of container engine implementations.

Resilient Systems in Banking
Resilience is about tolerating failure, not eliminating it. To build a resilient system, you must build a system that absorbs shocks, and continues or recovers. Following best practices for resilient architecture, including established cloud patterns, allowed Starling Bank to build a bank, from scratch, in a year, against a backdrop of highly public outages amongst incumbent banks.
