Data-driven software architecture
Posted on October 29, 2020, Level beginner Resource Length short
The web continues to grow and expand in innovative ways. At the same time, few seem to notice that the way web applications are currently built is dragging us ever deeper into technical debt. Software-centric architecture and legacy technologies used to implement it are at odds with the potential of the web. At best they are wildly inefficient, and at worst they are heading us into a software apocalypse. By AtomGraph.

Be effective with Bitrise CI for Android — the lessons learned the hard way
Posted on October 28, 2020, Level intermediate Resource Length long
I'm pretty sure we can all agree on how CI tools support our day to day effectiveness. How they might save dozens of hours spent on non-essential tasks. Yet, it's common to present CI tools as a hassle; slow, bulky, and unreliable pipelines bloated with chaotic events instead of fast, maintainable feedback loop configured to support both product quality and team flexibility.

Rebuilding Linkerd's continuous integration (CI) with Kubernetes in Docker (kind) and GitHub Action
Posted on October 24, 2020, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
In mid-2019, the Linkerd project's continuous integration (CI) took 45 minutes, all tests were serialized on a single Kubernetes cluster, and multi-hour backups were common. A migration onto one-off Kubernetes in Docker (kind) clusters and GitHub Actions got CI below 10 minutes, and made it parallelizable. By Andrew Seigner.

Posted on October 15, 2020, Level intermediate Resource Length medium

Helm 3 umbrella charts & standalone chart image tags — alternative approach
Posted on October 13, 2020, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Helm umbrella charts, for those who aren't familiar, describe and encapsulate a deployable collection of loosely couple Kubernetes components as a higher-order Helm chart. A collection of software elements that each have their own individual charts but, for whatever reason (e.g. design choices, ease of deployability, versioning complexities), must be installed or upgraded as a since atomic unit.
