Microservices

Today's blog is about Microservices architectural style, this refers to the approach of developing a single application as a suite of small services. As I was reading the article I really understood that I did not know anything about Microservices, I had a bearly idea about it but I was on the lost path. The authors give some characteristics of microservices and I will list them.

*Componentization via Services
*Organized around Business Capabilities
*Product not Projects
*Smart endpoints and dumb pipes
*Decentralized Governance
*Decentralized Data Management
*Design for failure
*Infrastructure Automation
*Evoluionary Design

Every one of these explains to us what the Microservice should have, I will explain some of them. 

*Componentization via Services: Components will be set up into libraries that will be broken down into services.

*Design for failure: Software must tolerate the failure of the external services

*Smart endpoints and dumb pipes: Endpoints should take care of all the domain logic, receiving the request, applying logic as an appropiate and producing response. 

*Decentralized Governance: Programmers should take advantage of any tool they have, they should be able to code in any given language.

*Decentralized Data Management: Let each service manage its own database.

I understood these concepts but I think with the practice I will learn them even more, I hope there is some final project or homework-related with the topic. And knowing my professor I know he will do his best to explain to us this topic.

Ethical Reflection on Ready Player One

Morrow wrote in his autobiography that he’d left GSS because ... he felt that the OASIS had evolved into something horrible. “It had become a self-imposed prison for humanity,” he wrote. “A pleasant place for the world to hide from its problems while human civilization slowly collapses, primarily due to neglect.” (p. 120) I deeply agree with this quote, I believe that the world would hide its problems inside Oasis, we can see that the world it's collapsing when you see the conditions in which Parzival was living on, he was living in a kinda dump. I'd love to test the Oasis and see how VR has grown. For me VR it's an incredible technology we can take advantage of, currently, I'm taking a class of VR and I can say I'm really impressed how much it has grown, it's really like if you are in another world. Sometimes I forget where I am and nowadays VR it's not as developed as in Ready Player One, so I understand how easy it can get to lost in the game.  I ...

Software Craftsmanship

Having working software is not enough. We need to have well-crafted software. This is one of the many interesting points  Uncle Bob  focused on his interview in the  software engineering radio podcast . He is a software engineer who co-wrote the Manifesto Software and leads “Uncle Bob Consulting LLC” and “Clean Coders” companies where he hosts videos based on his experiences and books, also he writes and consults codes. He became an architect and designed for a while but after that, he left it because it wasn`t his thing, despite this, he thinks that  architects shouldn’t be separated from the coders because  if they will separate them, architects make important decisions but they don’t know how to react because they aren't coding experts. (If all the team Will be architects, they should make wise decisions) Then Bob starts to explain about software craftsmanship which is an approach to  software development  that emphasizes the coding skills...

Hidden Figures

So this it's the second time I have seen Hidden Figures and I can say without a doubt this movie it's amazing, it's a sensitive movie, you can see the racism in its major expression, but also you can see how all we are equal, we have the same capacity no matter our colour or race. For me, it's incredible how technology was advancing and we can see in one part in the movie, where they buy a new IBM mainframe which can make thousands of multiplications in seconds. The team responsible for doing that work started to learn how to program that mainframe if they would sit and relax they would have been fired as soon as the computers started working.  We can see how important were women in the Mercury project, without doubt, if it was not for her the project would have been a total fail. Thanks to her the moon landing was possible, as in the Mercury project she was responsible for the calculations of the Apolo 11 which led us to the first moonwalking.  It's hard t...
