This past week, I had a discussion with a student team about microservices. This is a topic I've wanted to write about for a while and given the immediate relevance to this team, I finally made it a priority.

The microservices architecture is a popular and growing trend in many technology organizations today. But its implementation is often met with unsurmountable challenges by unprepared teams. This article discusses some of the challenges of microservices and how to overcome them.

Welcome to the first in running series of articles titled Bits of Bad Code! I've always found failure to be a powerful learning mechanism. The ability to learn from the failure of others is an important part of that. This article series stems from a habit a built up with some of my teams to share example of bad code we've found and talk about why they are bad and how to make them better. This has been a fun experience for a my teams and a wonderful learning experience for growing software engineers. The goal of this series is to share similar examples of bad code and talk about how to make them better.
