Architecture Weekly #59 - 24th January 2022

Welcome to the new week!

My running joke is that if you have an issue and fix it using the cache, you now have two issues. That recently hit Troy Hunt. If you’re into FinOps or cost optimisation, you should definitely have a look:

  • Troy Hunt - How I Got Pwned by My Cloud Costs

FinOps is one of the top buzzwords now. Cloud providers pricing rules are so tricky that you inevitably need to hire someone who knows that by heart. It’s also a decent consultancy direction to choose if you’re into the cloud and financial calculations. Nick Tune wrote an insightful article about the consultancy journey:

  • Nick Tune - From Consultant to Facilitator

If you like buzzwords, like quantum computing, GraphQL, etc, check those materials:

  • Damian Widera - Quantum Computing Explained With Demos!

  • InfoQ - GraphQL Reference Guide: Building Flexible and Understandable APIs

Don’t also miss other articles. They’re also worthy!

Cheers!
Oskar
