AI, ML and Data Engineering InfoQ Trends Report - August 2021

On this episode of the InfoQ Podcast, Thomas Betts talks with Maxime Lamothe-Brassard about cybersecurity. Understanding security is very similar to understanding software architecture, with general concepts applicable to everyone, and specific needs that depend on your situation. The discussion covers roles and responsibilities, DevSecOps, and the current and future state of cloud-native security.

The InfoQ Podcast - 2022 InfoQ Software Architecture & Design Trends

Implementing microservices is really challenging, and there are many ways to fail. Holly Cummins has identified seven ways to fail at microservices, and on this episode of the podcast Thomas Betts asks her to describe them, and how they can be avoided.

Seven Ways to Fail at Microservices with Holly Cummins

Jonas Bonér, CTO of LightBend and creator Akka, discusses using Akka when developing distributed systems. He talks about the Actor Model, and how every Microservice needs to be viewed as a system to be successful. 

Why listen to this podcast:

 - Akka is JVM-based framework design for developing distributed systems leveraging the Actor Model - an approach for writing concurrent systems that treat actors as universal primitives and the most successful model with abstraction has been streaming
 - Circuit breakers in Akka are a backup and retry policy; they protect you by capturing failure data and allow you to roll back 
 - Every Microservice needs to be viewed as a system, it needs to have multiple parts that run on different machines in order to function and be fully resilient - thus is a Microsystem
 - Two different trends have emerged when it comes to hardware and environments: one is the trend toward Multi-core, the is a movement toward virtualized environments and the cloud
 - Saga pattern of managing long running transactions in a distributed system fits very well with messaging style architectures
