Episode 77. Sql or NoSql, To Normalize or to Not Normalize... that (STILL) is the question

Episode 77. Sql or NoSql, To Normalize or to Not Normalize... that (STILL) is the question So you may have thought about using NoSQL or a Document Database for taking care of you needs. But do you know why that might be not be a good (or a pretty bad idea?). Or you may have a Database that have been running fine, but it seems that you can't work with it anymore? (Is it time to move to NoSql? Would it help?).
We dive into the "Why" would you choose Databases vs NoSQL Data Stores, or when to ditch your MongoDB and actually come back to MySQL. In our current time of "WebScale" and "CloudReady" we get bombarded by choices! (Mongo, Dynamo, MariaDB, ElasticSearch) and while some of the offerings are great, it might not mean that is the Right choice for what we need to store.
So take a listen as we explore normalization and the strength and weaknesses of relational data vs unstructured data.

Episode 76. Tick...tock...Time to upgrade to Java 11!

It's coming! If you have been using Oracle Java 8, you should know that starting on January 2019 we will have to get an oracle license for running Oracle's JDK in production. OR, if you want to keep using Oracle Java (or OpenJDK) for free, and still receive security updates, then you gotta move to 11!
In this episode we have no other than @DrDeprecator itself giving us a tour on what are the less-known changes (and goodies) that are coming when upgrading from 8 to 11. We go through most of the JEPs that usually don't make the news but are actually pretty awesome!
So take a listen, and start downloading the new Java 11!
