As a small business owner, you know that a website is the backbone of your online presence. It's where potential customers go to find out more about your products or services and eventually choose to make a purchase. Besides that, it also significantly impacts your online presence and search engine rankings. But what happens when your website goes down? Or when it's running slow? This can negatively affect your business's growth, so you must always be aware of it.
Deduplication is an effective alternative to transactions for eventually consistent use cases of a distributed database. Here’s why. Building a distributed database is complicated and needs to consider many factors. Previously, I discussed two important techniques, sharding and partitioning, for gaining greater throughput and performance from databases.
In our research for the inaugural State of Availability Report, we asked 1,900 engineers about mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to recovery (MTTR) as two leading incident management Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) strongly associated with availability. We learned that less than 15% of respondents are tracking their MTTD. It takes twice as long to discover an issue than it does to resolve it.

An important component of understanding the root cause of an error, and the importance of an error to the business is having additional contextual information about the error. The specific additional data that is important for your errors will be unique for your application and possibly the category of the error. Rollbar provides an easy way to tag your error data with additional custom tags. There are 2 main ways of doing this.
I'm no stranger to ranting about deploys. But there's one thing I haven't sufficiently ranted about yet, which is this: Deploying software is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad way to go about the process of changing user-facing code. It sucks even if you have excellent, fast, fully automated deploys (which most of you do not). Relying on deploys to change user experience is a problem because it fundamentally confuses and scrambles up two very different actions: Deploys and releases.
