Daily Reading List – June 23, 2023 (#110)

Happy Friday! There’s a Google bias to the content today, but I can’t help it if we publish lots of good things at the same time.

[article] A Comprehensive Guide to Building Event-Driven Architecture on Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud. This is not, in fact, a comprehensive guide, but it is a fairly good look at some of the core tech in each cloud for devs building event-driven apps.

[blog] 3 Steps to Improve Developer Experience. Smart analysis from my friend Traverse who serves up some advice on getting better at developer experience.

[blog] Developer experience: What is it and why should you care? Solid overview of what it means to offer a good developer experience.

[docs] About Spanner Vertex AI integration. We just made this functionality generally available. Call ML prediction models directly from SQL statements in Cloud Spanner. It’s more performant, scalable, and usable when baked into the database process.

[article] MongoDB integrates with Google Cloud’s Vertex AI models amid flurry of new features. The MongoDB gang made a number of product announcements at their dev conference this week. See here for more, and here too.

[blog] Friday Forward – Survivorship Bias. This is an easy bias to fall victim to. I’m sure I do all the time. Question the takeaways from “best practices” and “success stories” before mirroring them.

[blog] Trace exemplars now available in Managed Service for Prometheus. I now know what exemplars are, and why they help you troubleshoot latency issues.

[blog] What’s new in Assured Workloads: Region expansion, TLS version restrictions, new supported services. Our Assured Workloads capability is a very modern approach to regulation-friendly isolation, without forcing you into a secondary environment.
