The Database Programmer: Do You Know What Day It Is?
http://database-programmer.blogspot.com/2012/06/do-you-know-what-day-it-is.html
All things related to database applications, both desktop and web. Saturday, June 30, 2012. Do You Know What Day It Is? Have you ever sat in on a meeting like this? The customer wants a green background on this page. Do we know they're going to stick with green? Maybe we need a configuration option for background color.

It's all about the Coding. Petter Måhlén's Blog. Posted by Petter Måhlén. On September 6, 2012. But in our current ecosystem, the biggest number we’ve been able to get to is about 400/second. Plus writes tend to get slower as table sizes grow, and we’re talking hundreds of millions of entries. So in the beginning of the project, we were looking at alternatives. Our first stop, of course, was NoSQL databases. We checked out a fair few of them over a period of a month or two: HBase. We came across VoltDB.

This is a slightly modified cross-post of something I wrote for the internal Spotify blog.]. Developer-facing quality is a completely different thing from end-user facing quality, and is usually more important. A very closely related thought is Martin Fowler’s Design Stamina Hypothesis.
