Sessions Montréal 2026
A crash course into high availability for cloud apps
Session en Anglais - Avancé
Our applications are expected to be operational 24/7, but what does it take to achieve high availability when considering the current cloud offerings we have available?
I will go over redundancy for compute and persistence, graceful degradation, disaster recovery, and active-active patterns if you need more than 99.99% availability.
I will discuss a framework to help you assess and prioritize to keep your costs and complexity in check.
DDD, CQRS and Hexagonal Architecture - the good parts
Formation en Anglais
Domain-Driven Design, Command Query Responsibility Segregation and Hexagonal Architecture are commonly seen as the holy trinity of modern application development.
But it is easy to get trapped and end up with unnecessary complexity or missing the point of those patterns altogether. In this workshop, let's approach all three by focusing on the parts that can help you the most, leaving you with a solid foundation when you truly need to apply them.
