Been a while, but I wrote an article for one of my clients on building efficient GraphQL resolvers based on a chunk of rebuilding we just did. Was fun

Mirrormaker 2 beat me today.

@eshepelyuk If the data comes out of the DB in the right shape, that's all I wanted.

25 year old me was an idiot.

In other news, I met my wife at 25, so even idiots make good choices.

Today I am lifting query parts into JOINs to gain my Postgres DBA badge.

[David Dawson @davidthecoder]

Happily, postgres is approachable and pretty tolerant these days, and even a poor, ignorant distributed application engineer like me can figure out what's going on with queries and do some voodoo to make things fast.

PG loves memory. Load all your indexes into memory.

25 year old me is looking in horror as I read explain output and seem to understand what is going on.

25 year old me did not like the internals of databases that much.

Hence, running for stuff like MongoDB.

Arrived at @stedscath late for morning prayers. Now stocked up some goodies to fuel me through the rest of the day

@BenLugavere Thanks Ben, never quite sure how a follow up will be taken 😁

[David Dawson @davidthecoder]

@BenLugavere hey, I wrote an article that references an old one of yours that medium threw at me a few days ago. Hope you don't mind!

Agreed, one big advantage of Event Sourced systems in a distributed environment make it vastly easier to bootstrap a new service... and to recover when there's failures

[David Dawson @davidthecoder]

Wrote an article: "Replay your Event Streams for Fun and Profit"

Event sourcing vs stream processing in the same system.

Running distributed EventStorming sessions? Before doing it with your colleagues, stakeholders, or clients, get some experience in the safety of a workshop first. Join our Remote EventStorming workshop with @tcoopman Early Bird tickets until Sept 15. https://t.co/O9Qnmgd06Z

For the lovers of infrastructure, here's a bit of whimsy

"Kubernetes the Hard Way: Compute on the Cheap With Longhorn, Tinc and friends: 4 part series"

https://t.co/lrk081nCJ9

Will drop the articles every week for the next month, probably on a Friday.

[David Dawson @davidthecoder]

After several years of absence from social media, blogging, conferences and user groups, I've got a fair few things back in the pipeline over the net 6 months. App design, event systems, Kubernetes, Kafka, NodeJS, JVM, Groovy and some soldering.

Looking forward to it!
