| When designing a distributed system, maybe based on microservices, and you are considering an event architecture, there are several models and technologies available. When choosing how to implement the architecture the non-functional requirements are a main factor, David Dawson claims when describing different styles of event architectures in a recent blog post. | | Spring Cloud Function is a new project that aims to promote the function as the primary unit of development. The project provides a common model for deploying function-based software across a variety of deployment platforms, including FaaS (Function as a Service) platforms like Amazon’s AWS Lambda. |

| A load balancer often acts as the single entry into a web application, which makes it a critical component in your application delivery infrastructure: load‑balancer downtime means application downtime. This blog post compares several methods you can use to achieve high availability for Amazon Web Services. Sponsored content |

| The upcoming release of Spring Boot 2.0.0 M4 will feature an improved actuator endpoint infrastructure featuring new mapping, easier creation of user-defined endpoints, and improved security. Stéphane Nicoll, principal software engineer at Pivotal, spoke to InfoQ about these actuator endpoints. | | When moving from a monolithic system to a distributed or microservices system, you commonly also move from a single source of truth in one database to many databases and thus many sources of truth. Using an event architecture and persisting all events as a stream can give back the single source of truth, Ben Stopford claims in one of a series of blog posts about events, event streams and Kafka. | | A challenge with event sourced systems is that events put in the event store years ago must be readable today, even though the software has gone through numerous changes, Greg Young stated in his presentation at this year’s DDD eXchange conference. If a system can be taken down, versioning of events is relatively simple. The real challenge comes when a system can’t be taken down. |

| Simple architectures are the most efficient and, subsequently, successful over their lifetime. As an industry, we need to focus more on the system quality of architectural simplicity. |

| As software development projects grow in scope, it is very easy for them to add redundant layers of code. The author provides his findings from his recent analysis of several open source projects. |

| If you have a Unisys mainframe, you may be thinking that cloud computing isn’t an option. But cloud computing has quickly matured and is now a viable option for mainframe application workloads. |
