Immutable data
Enjoy the following series of interviews with the speakers, top-notch software crafters from across Europe, joining I T.A.K.E Unconference, Bucharest, 19-20 May. Discover the lessons learned and what drives them to challenge the known path in their field.
Ricardo J. Mendez, founder at Numergent, is a software developer with 20 years of practice. He will share in his talk at I T.A.K.E Unconference 2016 more about immutable data.
#1. SHARE TOP 5 THINGS YOU DID THAT HELPED YOU GROW & BECOME THE PROFESSIONAL YOU ARE TODAY
Realizing that, as a developer, your job is not to deliver code. Your job is to keep the user happy, and delivering code is only a part of that. It requires a mental shift from the technology-focused mentality one tends to have as an engineer.
#2. What challenges will the participants find solutions to during your session at I T.A.K.E Unconference 2016?
A shift in mentality towards data immutability, whatever the language we are using, will help structure the code and functionality in a way that makes it easier to grow and change down the road.
#3. What else would you like to share with participants ?
Docker & Zero Downtime Deployment rules
#1. Share with us 5 things you did that helped you grow & become the professional you are today
- Read and try stuff
- Be part of the software community
- Ask questions
- Coding outside the work (side projects, open source contributions, etc.)
- Learn by teaching (speaking at conferences, writing blogs posts, etc.)
#2. What challenges will the participants find solutions to during your session at I T.A.K.E Unconference 2016?
Both of my talks are overcoming the challenges of modern software products. Zero-downtime deployment session will empathize on the possibility of always-up systems and making continuous deployment more adoptable. There are a few things to watch out on this space and I am hoping to highlight on that by giving examples and demos on my real world experiences.
The docker session will get you a higher level on how a tool can make a difference on developing and releasing products, in this case microservices.
#3. What else would you like to share with participants
I like to be part of the software community. So, I produce a lot. You can follow my activity on my blog and GitHub account.
I love traveling and discovering new places. I am a huge Formula 1 fan.
