Armchair Architects: Architecting Mission Critical Apps (bonus episode)
with David Blank-Edelman, Uli Homann, Eric Charran
But wait—there’s more! When the cameras stopped rolling at the end of the previous episode of the #AzureEnablementShow, the conversation kept going. In this bonus episode, our #ArmchairArchitects, Uli and Eric, revisit the off-camera conversation with David about how cloud solution architects think about microservices when designing mission-critical apps.
