At the very beginning of last year, I decided to track my reading habits and share the best stuff here, on Baeldung. Haven't missed a review since.

Here we go…

1. Spring and Java

>> Zero Downtime Deployment with a Database [spring.io]

It's no coincidence that this is first on the list this week – Marcin wrote a well researched, solid and referenceable resource for handling deployments in production.

>> Back to the CompletableFuture: Java 8 Feature Highlight [takipi.com]

Brushing up on the basics is always a good idea, and the CompletableFuture was such a useful addition in Java 8.

The fact that the examples are built using Marvel superheroes is just gravy.

>> JVM JIT optimization techniques [advancedweb.hu]

A comprehensive introduction to the underpinnings of how the JVM actually optimizes and runs code.

>> The Open Session In View Anti-Pattern [vladmihalcea.com]

A low level and highly useful deep-dive into how using the Open Session In View “solution” is essentially a code smell for a root problem in the architecture of the system.

>> Oracle Moves In Strange Ways [adam-bien.com]

A very interesting lesson in the history of Java EE and a quick read.

>> Why Microservices Should Be Event Driven: Autonomy vs Authority [christianposta.com]

As it's becoming clearer and clearer after the ruckus has died down – microservices require a fundamentally different way of architecting our systems.

>> How to use PostgreSQL’s JSONB data type with Hibernate [thoughts-on-java.org]

Some Hibernate goodness with the JSON support in PostgreSQL.

2. Technical

>> Modelling Microservice Patterns in Code [vanilla-java.github.io]

An writeup that can define and clarify the mental model of certain client-server interactions.

Also worth reading:

3. Musings

>> The emergence of historical mega breaches [troyhunt.com] and >> Dating the ginormous MySpace breach [troyhunt.com]

Some very interesting things happening in the security ecosystem this week, with a few unprecedented data breaches seeing the light of day all at once.

>> Bridging the Communication Gap Between Developers and Architects [daedtech.com]

Consensus about what an “architect” should be is unlikely, but defining a few useful things that they should definitely do is easier. Some interesting take-aways here.

>> OutcomeOriented [martinfowler.com] and >> ActivityOriented [martinfowler.com]

Organizing teams well is a tough nut to crack. If you're working on cracking it – these two short writeups are a good read.

Also worth reading:

4. Comics

And my favorite Dilberts of the week:

>> How did people do sarcasm before the internet? [dilbert.com]

>> I remember a time when I had to listen [dilbert.com]

>> The least important thing I do is more important than all of you put together [dilbert.com]

5. Pick of the Week

>> Immortality Begins at Forty [ribbonfarm.com]
