Back in business

So it seems I’m back in business. The server I’m running on (homebrew) had a bit of a cooling issue. Of course it went down the night before I was leaving for the US and The ServerSide Symposium. I feared my CPU was burned, but after some cleaning and new coolingpaste it seems to be running. We’ll se how long it lasts. 🙂

Got back from TSS on monday and still a bit of jetlagged. Great conference with great people. There’s heaps of stuff about it elsewhere.

Heaps of others too that I don’t remember. Excellent time in the us.

Subversion plugin for Eclipse

I’m not running on subversion right now, but have been testing Subclipse earlier. It has it weaknesses and now there is another alternative, Subversive. I’ll be sure to check it out later.

Booch on SOA

Grady Booch has a blog entry on SOA. Nothing revelutionary, but the following is some really good advice when trying to think SOA:

I’ve seen some folks suggest creating an SOA from the bottom up: look at a silo, identify the potential services, and publish them, then weave a system together from them. This is in essence technology first. In my experience, this is a recipe for disaster and/or serious over-engineering.
