Some great sessions at #QConLondon today...but... here's a tip if you are presenting tomorrow... please double your font sizes! So many slides today with unreadable or barely readable text, even from 6th row.
Trying to address tech debt in your legacy apps by "refactoring" to microservices?...proceed with extreme caution... Converting your monolithic big ball of mud into a big distributed ball of mud is like paying off your mortgage with your credit card.

Into event-driven architectures? Want to learn more?
Last week I started to build EDA Visuals and now have 20 bite sizes visuals to help you learn.
I have now compressed these into PDF format for you all to download for free 🚀
Hope it helps 👇

My usual beef with reference architectures is that they launder the creators' assumptions into "best practices" without helping you put your own needs in context.
Turns out there's a cheat code to get past this problem, and the team that built "Emblem Giving" found it:

Now @garyolliffe is just showing off, as this @Gartner_inc report—Adopt Platform Engineering to Improve the Developer Experience—is a fantastic blueprint for those that want to set up a platform team correctly.
RIP @ProgrammableWeb : ProgrammableWeb is Being Retired... thanks to those who created it and sustained it for so long. programmableweb.com/news/pro…

EDA question for you all, something I'm curious about....
As you scale event-driven solutions within your org, what are the problems you face beyond the initial setup?

I don’t often create OpenAPI specification but when I do it:
37%I write it
25%I use an API Design GUI
38%I generate it from code
282 votes • Final resultsMy new #GraphQL research has published (@Gartner_inc clients).... Bottom Line:if you build/publish #APIs don’t ignore it. Backend tools still improving, but your API consumers will love it, esp. if they build UI/UX

Another take on modern applications architecture by @Gartner's Gary Olliff #GartnerCAT
#GartnerCAT London is up and running... @ekhnaser kicking off the Keynote on connected intelligent architecture...@drcarltonsapp, @PatrickHevesi two days of great content to come.
Hey @GraphQL - you guys don't make it easy to get in touch... foundation.graphql.org has zero contact info and the [email protected] email address (I'm old school) listed on your github repo just bounces. Hints?
Great stuff from my Gartner for Tech Pros team mate @fintanr... detailed assessment of #AWS capabilities as an app platform for @Gartner_inc clients.
Some notes on my latest research "Assessing @awscloud Application #PaaS", where we assess AWS across 227 criteria - linkedin.com/pulse/assessing…. @Gartner_Inc clients have access to the full 61 page report. #CloudNative
I was searching for words to describe listening to those last 75 runs... if this was @GeoffreyBoycott’s best in 50 years it explains why struggled. Magical @benstokes38 and @jackleach1991. Now, FFS @englandcricket, remember how to bat every innings!!!
I’ve seen some remarkable cricket moments in my life but that is the best I’ve seen in over 50 years. @benstokes38 saved the Ashes and gave a magical inspirational innings. Even better than his World Cup performance.
Well done @ECB_cricket
Ah, the sound of leather on willow, and another wicket for @stewkleycricket ... great for the jet lag after #GartnerCatalyst
Quite the crowd - if #kubernetes is the answer are you asking the right question? @fintanr has the answers at #GartnerCAT #GartnerCatalyst
