Both databases and search engines can do data searches and handle queries. But what exactly is the main differences between the two? And which one should you use in your project? Check out our latest Tech in One Minute episode to find out our take on this issue! Don't forget to subscribe to our channel as well for more podcasts on software development!

Tech in One Minute: Database vs Search Engine

When building an app or software, one of the most crucial factors to consider is the product's scalability. When a system does not need to be modified to retain effective performance during or after a significant increase in workload, which is said to be scalable. This development strategy allows for future growth while also generating a smaller product that suits current demands without increasing complexity. There are various factors that must be considered in order to achieve a scalable design:


Usage - A well-designed system should not have any arbitrary limitations on the number of users or connections it can support.

Maximum data storage - The amount of data kept by initiatives like data science or sites with a lot of unstructured data could grow quickly and unexpectedly. In a software architecture, ensuring data storage scalability is essential.

Code - Should be written in a way that it may be expanded or modified without needing to be refactored. By eliminating unnecessary duplication, one can lower the overall size and complexity of the codebase.

Scaling Out vs. Scaling Up - Both strategies have advantages and disadvantages depending on the final desired goal and/or any additional constraints (such as time or money budgets). Scaling up, for example, is not suited for software that has to expand quickly, and scaling out can limit the speed with which servers communicate or the messaging and the capacity of the integration layer.

The words event-driven and message-driven frequently emerge in discussions regarding software system communication. But, aside from the names, how do these two techniques vary in practice and how do you determine which best to use? Check out our new Tech in One Minute episode for our take on this issue.

Message Driven Vs Event Driven Architecture

Hey guys! In today's episode of Tech in One Minute, we talk a little bit on transaction cost in software development. Stay tuned for our follow up episode on this topic where we explain further on how you determine the best way to optimize your transactions in software design.!

Tech in One Minute: Transaction Cost

In a nutshell, digital transformation is the integration of digital technology into all elements of a business. This process effectively changes how you operate and give value to your clients. It's also a cultural shift that necessitates firms constantly challenging the status quo, experimenting, and learning to accept failure. However, many are still confused on what is considered as digital transformation. Follow our journey as we divulge in Digital Transformation and how we can achieve the best integration.

Distributed systems are becoming increasingly common in software architecture, and there are many reasons why they should be the first choice for any new project. In this two-part series, we will be taking a closer look at where and why one should design using Distributed Systems vs the Monolithic Design approach.

Distributed Systems Pt1

As promised, here is part 2 of Distributed Systems! In this follow-up episode, we dive deep into distributed systems' benefits over monolithic software architecture designs. Learn how you can increase efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance performance with this innovative approach. Stay tuned for the next video in this series where Ali gets deep into the coding and design details of distributed systems.
