Newsletter

What we gained, and what was actually hard.

Every two weeks I write a short letter from the work. Usually it is a short piece of a case: what we gained from it, or what was actually hard. These are the situations we run into when an application has to stay available. I write them in everyday words.

In the letter

The situation, and the lesson in it.

A piece of a case

What we gained, or what the real difficulty was. Short, from the situation itself.

It has to stay available

What we see while helping build an application that has to stay available.

Integration

When the systems have to work together, and that is where the work gets stuck.

When it turns out to matter

Performance and observability often do not seem important at first. The letter is about when and how it becomes clear that they do.
