Most people will be disappointed by the second edition of Refactoring
I've put a lot of hard work into the second edition of Refactoring. But
I reckon that most people will be disappointed by it when it comes out,
even though I think it's an improvement over the original. This memo
explains why, and why I think that initial reaction ultimately doesn't matter.
Completing the extraction of a data-rich service
Praful completes the steps of extracting a data rich service by
pointing the new service to the new database and removing the dead logic
and schema from the monolith.

Steps 6 & 7 of extracting a data-rich service
Two steps today from Praful's service extraction article. Step 6
creates a new database for the service and 7 syncs the data from the
monolith

Step 5 of extracting a data-rich service
Now Praful lets clients of the catalog switch over to use the new

tables in the monolith.

raise importance of tech excellence
prefer products over projects
and one reason to be optimistic

Refactoring 2nd Ed: Composing the Print Book
During the last couple of weeks, my work on the refactoring book has
focused on tidying up various loose ends for the print book. We’re now at
the point where the production work is now in the hands of Alina
Kirsanova, who sorts out the composition of the book, together with proof
reading. Composing a book means paying attention to the look of each page,
and various problems crop up around pagination.
Step 3 of extracting a data-rich service
For step 3, Praful separates the future service's data into a
separate table within the monolith.
Step 2 of extracting a data-rich service
Praful now moves onto the second step: creating a logical separation
for the new service inside the existing monolith
