I'm spending a bit of free time during this two-week break learning #golang. The language just got support for generics, and @llorllale explores it here (while comparing to Java):https://dzone.com/articles/golang-first-look-at-generics …

Predictions for the Jamstack in 2022 https://thenewstack.io/predictions-for-the-jamstack-in-2022/ … < you might not be doing JAMstack stuff, but it's useful to pay attention to what's hot in other domains. Good insight from @seldo here.

Maybe you'll have a 2022 resolution to keep a closer eye on software security happenings? I sure will. A good place to start is by subscribing to @philvenables CISO Perspectives published on @googlecloud. Great insights and links to extra material.https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/identity-security/cloud-ciso-perspectives-december-2021 …

If clicking a lot of links is too much work for you this time of year, here's all the @InfoQ trend reports in a single downloadable asset. Good stuff to review.https://www.infoq.com/minibooks/infoq-trends-report-2021 …

Introduction to multi-tenancy in Kubernetes https://www.cncf.io/blog/2021/12/20/introduction-to-multi-tenancy-in-kubernetes/ … < you've got important design considerations to make when thinking about tenancy. I see a lot of folks separate using a cluster boundary, others try to segment within clusters.

I'm seeing lots of 2022 predictions focused on databases and data management (e.g. https://accelerationeconomy.com/data/predictions-2022-data-management-gets-easier-and-free-forever/ …). You've got lots of great mature choices (https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/data-analytics/google-named-a-leader-in-2021-gartner-mq-for-cloud-dbms …) and lots of great emerging database options. It'll be fun to see who bets on what in 2022.

We may differ on our recommendations for which platform(s) best scratch the OSS itch, but I like @ritam's post about favoring products that make it safe and easy to consume hot open source tech. And I love seeing my friend @ritam write more often!https://tanzu.vmware.com/content/home-page/open-source-tanzu-application-platform …

Don’t Lose Touch as a Software Architect Going Into 2022 https://dzone.com/articles/dont-lose-touch-as-a-software-architect-going-into … < still a big believer that you'll struggle to be an effective architect if you can't use the tech included in your designs

When I spoke to @sarbjeetjohal a few months ago about multicloud (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4hhxqVazwM …), he mentioned the increasing importance of software distribution and cloud marketplaces. No surprise to see our friends at @tackleio raising big $$ to keep growing:https://techcrunch.com/2021/12/21/newly-minted-unicorn-tackle-plans-to-use-100-million-series-c-to-accelerate-the-future-of-software-sales/ …

I'd bet that "changing data warehouses" is something that people do very infrequently. It's a big deal. Lots of folks are now betting on @googlecloud BigQuery, and @pvergadia has a good post showing you how to make the move ...https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/developers-practitioners/how-migrate-premises-data-warehouse-bigquery-google-cloud …

What's the frontend for your backend? Lots of folks, including @springcentral developers, rely on JavaScript in the client. In this monster post, @david_syer digs through (and demonstrates) some good options for your Spring Boot apps ...https://spring.io/blog/2021/12/17/client-side-development-with-spring-boot-applications …

Your architecture may not (yet? ever?) have 4000 services and 5000 production deployments per week, but we can all learn from what @UberEng is doing, via this @InfoQ article ...https://www.infoq.com/articles/uber-deployment-planet-scale …

Holiday Book Recommendations for Engineering Managers, Software Engineers and Product Managers https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/holiday-tech-book-recommendations/ … < outstanding list from @GergelyOrosz. I've read maybe 40% of these, and added a few more to my queue.
