RubyConf 2018 - Uncoupling Systems by Jeremy Hanna

We tackle unique business challenges but are solving similar problems, and all too rarely will we talk through our designs and mistakes. Integrations, external APIs, data-stores - these might not be pure code but we can learn a lot from good object design when scaling our systems.

In this talk we’ll discuss how parts of a distributed systems rely on each other, how data flow can couple and propagate failure, and how common emergent patterns can encapsulate services to be resilient.

This is a journey of close calls, errors, and design smells researched into how a service gets simplified.
