Technical Debt – Can you pay it back?
In a perfect world, development projects would be:
- Deployed often
- Developed using Agile practices, for example following Scrum
- Using mainstream technologies and libraries
- Managed & developed using best practices – the reason I started rules.ssw.com.au
- Run at a sustainable cadence with a team of at least 2 developers
- Code written in buddy fashion – 2 developers sitting side by side
- Covered with maintainable tests
- Ran by savvy & available Product Owners
- A Backlog that clearly identifies technical debt
- Reasonable budgets and timeframes
Do you work on a project that gets a tick on each one of these? Usually, the two biggest things in a software project that developers have the least influence over, are the time they have to build a product (aka #10 – a reasonable budget).
So, what does this mean in the real world? Usually, it means software developers making compromises to get something built in the desired timeframe. This often leads to what we call Technical Debt.
Keep reading to see how you can control technical debt and make it manageable.

Automagic Tenant Config for Mobile Apps | Matt Goldman
How do you get environment- or tenant-specific config into your users’ hands? With mobile or desktop apps, for managed devices we can pre-configure these using SOE or MDM tools. However, deploying configuration to unmanaged devices is the real challenge!
In this talk, Matt Goldman looks at some different options for automating this for your users. As a result, this helps to reduce human error and improve the UX.

Building Rock SOLID Serverless applications
by William Liebenberg
The world has embraced Serverless computing, but some systems still end up with the same problems we thought would be a thing of the past. In this talk, William will be covering how we should apply familiar SOLID principles to our Serverless Application architecture and infrastructure so that our systems are light, easy to maintain and benefit from unbounded scalability.
William then follows through with some techniques that can boost your application's resiliency to outages, security, and reduce coupling.
After this talk you can go ahead and build Rock SOLID Serverless applications that will be able to withstand the test of time. |
