SSW TV brings you all the best content from the 2016 DDD event in Sydney.

In this presentation, Richard Banks talks about designing and building microservices in .NET.

Talk outline:

“Buzz word! More buzz words! And another buzz word!! Now that that’s out of the way, if you’re thinking of heading down the microservices path, then how do you do it? How do you build the services? What do you need to think about if you’re starting from scratch? What if you’re converting a legacy app? How do we deal with versioning? Do we have to use a NoSQL solution, just because Netflix does? Do we need to use docker/containers? What about the code? Show me the code! Well, that’s what this session is all about. Designing and building microservices in .NET and then handling a bunch of other concerns that a microservices approach will force you to think about. Sounds interesting, doesn’t it? You betcha. See you in the session!”

We hope you enjoy this content. You can watch more of DDD on SSW TV.

Stop Using 👍 Wrong in Teams | Adam Cogan

A quick communication tip from Adam Cogan: don’t use 👍 as a catch-all response when someone assigns you a task in Teams, Slack, or Google Chat. In the example Adam gives, if a task will take about five minutes, a thumbs up is too ambiguous because it does not clearly say whether you’ve read it, agree with it, are doing it now, or will do it later. Instead, use 👍 for agreement, 👀 to show you’ve seen the task and are actively working on it, and then replace 👀 with ✅ once the task is done. It is a small change, but it removes ambiguity and cuts down unnecessary follow-up messages.
