This is the second time I am writing a year in review, the first one was for a recap of 2019. The year 2020 has been chaotic, to say the least. With COVID 19 turning out to be a mild world war 3, everyone had a fair share of this disorder and new normal. In this post, I am going to discuss the professional and technical things I accomplished in 2020.

Software resilience is a must-have quality for any software that is scalable, performant, and fault-tolerant.

The ability of software to heal from unexpected events is software resilience. This means a software engineer has to anticipate unexpected events and account for them. The solution for creating this fault tolerance can be in code or on the infrastructure layer.

Distributed systems will fail, a resilient software system will not try to avoid failure but expect it and respond gracefully.

In this post, we will look into some aspects that you need to be careful to have software resilience.

Software scalability is an interesting issue to have. Making software scalable consists of multiple factors, we discuss some dev (code) related and a few operations (platforms) associated aspects in this blog post.

We will discuss more on how to write software (software development) and how you run the software (operations) to make the software scalable. For beginners, cost and scalability are generally proportional, let’s get cracking.
