Ideas worth engineering around.

Concrete methods, explicit trade-offs and an engineering perspective.

Shorten repetitive work, keep engineering judgement. RAG and agents need measurable evaluation, not just persuasive demos.

Match Container Apps, Functions or AKS to workload shape and operational capacity.

Use SBOMs, dependency scanning and least-privilege pipelines to make release risk visible.

Make distributed development observable and repeatable, without hiding how production works.

Decouple long-running work with Service Bus, Event Grid and a transactional outbox.

Track cost per business transaction and right-size using actual workload data.

Make environments reviewable and reproducible with Bicep, Git and automated checks.

Clear domain boundaries without paying for a distributed system before you need one.

Connect traces, metrics and logs to the experience customers actually receive.

Give teams a paved road to production with self-service environments and sensible defaults.
