This sounds a lot like my daughter (3yo). She likes to play up, but also craves approval from her parents and stern words can be devastating to her. The best approach we've found is to progressively and predictably escalate our languag

Supporting North/South is how they have traditionally been marketed, but not how they are actually used much of the time. Inside enterprise they are often used as an internal "service catalog" and are effectively a shim provi

One reason for the explosive interest in service mesh over the last 24 months that this article glosses over is that it's deeply threatening to a range of existing industries, that are now responding. Most immediately to API gateways (

If you adopt micro-services in earnest, a challenge you face is how to ensure that the right set of services can communicate (and only communicate with) the right other set of services. In a large organization, it's not unrealistic to
