We all know the real world is not that simple, and we’re constantly facing new challenges at every corner.
Users expect an interconnected world where they can securely share their data between multiple applications, for example, using their Facebook account as the preferred authentication method on every app they have just installed.

In today’s article, we will see which grant types you should use depending on which context.

You’re in a restaurant waiting for your takeaway meal, and the meal order meal screen is damaged. You get asked to take a seat. While doing so, you start a Facetime conversation with a friend.
The simplest and smartest thing you can do is wait until your name is called, and in the meantime, keep up with the conversation. However, imagine a second use case, where you’re an impatient person and every five minutes, you ask if it’s ready.
In the end, we all know that the second approach makes less sense, as asking for more updates will not make…

Four and a half years have passed since my first contact with the professional world as a software engineer.
Through that time, I was fortunate to meet extraordinary and skilled people. Who taught me how to create my own path, trust in others, and most importantly, not be afraid of facing my fears.
I will give you some of the most insightful learnings I had the opportunity to experience in the past four and a half years.

As you probably already noticed, the cloud is a hot and recurrent topic in today’s conversations.
We repeatedly hear buzz words like AWS Lambdas, Kubernetes, Azure functions, and much more. It’s incredible and sometimes stressful, to see and realize the enormous number of functionalities these companies supply to their clients.
As software engineers, it’s a requirement to get everything up to speed and keep up with the market speed and innovation, so we don’t lose the train.
In today’s article, I will mainly focus on the Azure functions:

We all know that our working routines, as well as our productivity, suffered a significant change after we got into this pandemic stage.
Probably most people increased the spending time on Netflix, video games, social media, etc. I admit… I was one of them!
Fortunately, as a software engineer, our sector didn’t get affected much by the plague. Most of us just needed to switch our laptop’s location, and that was it, we were ready to start over again.
I knew I wanted more. I didn’t want to spend…
When was the last time you needed to submit or extract some data from a website, and it took an eternity?
Caching is a well-known concept, and it has existed for a very long time.
Unfortunately, many applications fail to extract their full potential. With such a system within your application, your response times can become significantly faster, without much work.
Your clients will thank you later!
Today, I will explain to you, what and how through the following topics:
- Cache Definition
- What the heck is Redis (Caching System)?
- How can I integrate it with Spring Boot?
- Example Time!
- Conclusion

In a microservice architecture, sometimes we want to ensure behaviors across all services, such as: request tracking, logging, header validation, and so on.
To consistently enforce such policies, we shouldn’t throw those responsibilities to all teams responsible for each group of microservices, or each one would develop their solution, and the word “consistency” would boil away.
Focusing the logic above in what’s called Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) is the best decision you can make. …
