Post on Spring blog

Hi!

Since December I'm working for Pivotal and the Spring Cloud team. I've just posted my first blog post on the Spring blog. Check it out!

Testing Spring Cloud Projects

Business value gone wild

This blog post will not be about microservices, Spring or any technology that I've already talked about in Too much coding blog. This time it will be my opinion on two subjects

• the more and more frequent "it's not my problem" approach in the IT industry running in a corporation. 
• the "business value" frenzy of the management

This article is definitely not a motivational one. Quite frankly, you might get depressed after reading it. Nonetheless, it's better to know how really corporate life sometimes looks like rather than get hit in the face.

TL;DR : the more you care in a corporate enterprise the worse for you. Eventually some developers will hate your ideas of quality and standards because they are paid to tap the keys. Your management will fire you for not bringing "business value". The faster you embrace it, the better for you - you'll start searching for a new job sooner.

Microservice Deployment

It's been a while since my last post. In the meantime of course nothing has changed in terms of the microservice hype. I've been  attending many microservice's talks and what I'm always missing are concrete details on many different subjects. One of which is deployment. In this post I'll try to depict how in a big, multinational company one would want to do microservice deployment. I'll walk you through the most basic deployment pipeline that could be created in such an enterprise.
