The ThoughtWorks Technology Radar is full of good stuff. Here are my personal favorites:

Micro Services

There's an upfront cost in building more distributed systems with independently operated micro services but it brings so much clarity to your world. You can align small agile teams with each service, you have much more explicit conctracts, leaky interfaces becomes more rare.

The key trend here is that platform services and frameworks have come a long way to make it easier to build micro services. So you should absolutely trial it out and understand just how the cost compares to your current approach.

Safe-keeping passwords used in ad-hoc scripts

When I need to send small batches of customized emails, I use Craig Kerstiens' and Will Leinweber's Ruby trick.

I've added an additional small hack to this trick that I've used several times: Storing and retrieving passwords in the Mac OSX keychain with minimal pain.

If you read through Craig's post and the code, you'll see that you need to pass in your GMail password. I care deeply about protecting access to my GMail account, so I don't just paste passwords into code or other random files stored on my hard drive. To keep things as secure as possible, I do the following:

  • Turn on two-factor for GMail
  • Now you cannot use your primary password for scripts like this. Instead I generate a per-application password. (click on "App passwords" on Security settings).
