This talk was presented at Failover Conf on April 21, 2020.

When starting a new application build, starting with an eye on resiliency prevents headaches down the line. There are many ways to tackle this, especially within different language environments and system eco-systems, but there are many shared across them all. Getting a high-level take-away list to use as a reference later, from a dive into them during this talk, viewers will learn how to develop software that is more fault-tolerant and able to with-stand impact of failures.
