The Renaissance of Code Documentation: Introducing Code Walkthrough
The Continuous Documentation methodology is a useful paradigm that helps ensure that high-quality documentation is created, maintained, and readily available. Code Walkthroughs take the reader on a “walk” — visiting at least two stations in the code — describe flows and interactions, and often incorporate code snippets.

Are Canary Releases an Alternative to Testers?
Canary releases enable product owners to check how a new feature is getting adopted by users by rolling it out to a small percentage of users and then incrementally rolling it out to a wider audience. Product owners might feel tempted to discontinue or reduce testing upon adopting canary releases, but decisions should be approached cautiously as they can have serious and unintended consequences.

Applying Software Delivery Metrics and Analytics to Recover a Problem Project
Problem software delivery projects can be recovered mid-flight if Value Stream Management (VSM) analytics are used in a forensic way to uncover the root-cause of the issues. The root-cause metrics areas considered include: People Availability; Team Stress; Backlog Health; Sprint Accuracy; Process Efficiency; Story Management; and Defect Gen. A root-cause RAG reports shows key mitigations.

Serverless Solution to Offload Polling for Asynchronous Operation Status Using Amazon S3
This article proposes a solution to redirect the polling part to the Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) - a highly available, scalable, and secured object storage service managed by Amazon Web Services public cloud provider (AWS). It will present a serverless implementation using AWS Lambda functions, but this is not mandatory if you want to use S3.
