Micro-Frontends: A Sociotechnical Journey Toward a Modern Frontend Architecture
Micro-frontends differ from components by emphasising autonomy and flow over standardisation and reuse—a sociotechnical shift aligned with Conway's law. Migration should be gradual, starting where autonomy is most beneficial and ensuring that the architecture aligns with the team structure. Duplication can benefit the flow and enable iterative delivery, rather than requiring extensive rewrites.

Building Distributed Event-Driven Architectures across Multi-Cloud Boundaries
Multi-cloud event-driven architectures are now essential, not optional. With most organizations already multi-cloud, success depends on optimizing latency, ensuring resilience, and managing event consistency across providers. Key practices include code-level tuning, robust recovery policies, duplicate prevention, observability, and strong team readiness.

Holistic Engineering: Organic Problem Solving for Complex Evolving Systems
Late projects. Architectures that drift from their original design. Code that mysteriously evolves into something nobody planned. These persistent problems in software development often stem not from technical failures, but from forces we pretend don't exist—reward systems that incentivize the wrong behaviors, organizational structures that ignore domain boundaries, and human dynamics.

Reducing False Positives in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Semantic Caching: a Banking Case Study
In this article, author Elakkiya Daivam discusses why Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and semantic caching techniques are powerful levers for reducing false positives in AI powered applications. She shares the insights from a production-grade evaluation with 1,000 query variations tested across seven bi-encoder models.

When Reverse Proxies Surprise You: Hard Lessons from Operating at Scale
Operating massive reverse proxy fleets reveals hard lessons: optimizations that work on smaller systems fail at scale; mundane oversights like missing commas cause major outages; and abstractions meant to simplify become hidden fragility points. Success requires profiling on target hardware, relentlessly monitoring boring details, keeping hot paths lean, and trusting instrumentation over theory.

Building Resilient Platforms: Insights from over Twenty Years in Mission-Critical Infrastructure
Building resilient platforms requires understanding the art and science of creating infrastructure that others depend on for critical applications. This perspective applies to anyone who builds software consumed by others at scale. Whether developing infrastructure platforms, software development platforms, or messaging systems, principles address how to build software that others consume at scale

Training Data Preprocessing for Text-to-Video Models
In this article, author Aleksandr Rezanov discusses the data preparation for generative text-to-image models to accelerate work on video generation services to be used in TV series and films. He explains how data is prepared and can serve as a starting point for creating custom datasets to develop proprietary models.

Empowering Teams: Decentralizing Architectural Decision-Making
In today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, centralized architectural decision-making can become a bottleneck to delivery performance and innovation. Through stories from our own journey, we’ll share how decentralizing decisions improved alignment across teams, empowered faster decision-making, and fostered a culture of ownership.

Beyond Accidental Quality: Finding Hidden Bugs with Generative Testing
Generative testing uncovers hidden software bugs by exploring the input space and verifying system invariants. This surpasses example-based tests that rely on known scenarios and can miss edge cases.

Three Questions That Help You Build a Better Software Architecture
To architect effectively for an MVP, teams must answer three questions in order: Is the business idea worth pursuing? What performance and scalability are needed? How much maintainability and supportability are required? These guide Minimum Viable Architecture decisions. Empirical testing helps reject costly assumptions early and adapt architecture as the MVP evolves.
