Change Starts Here
JULY 30, 2019
A common theme of change management is to involve people in the process of change as early as possible. Do change with people, not to them. If people help identify the issues with the current state and develop solutions, then resistance will be eliminated. After all, it’s hard to resist something you create, right? Nope.

Monolithic architectures are the result of the continued growth of modern applications’ size and complexity. When apps were small, things such as eliminating bugs or adding new features, updating the UI or UX, or implementing additional security were projects that were done by the same team.

Web applications commonly require processes that run as background tasks and are scheduled at intervals at a specific time or triggered at an event. They do not require a fancy interface for IO because the focus is on the process rather than the output. Azure WebJobs provides excellent support to accomplish this through web console applications typically in a cloud environment.

For the first three years of OpenAI, I dreamed of becoming a machine learning expert but made little progress towards that goal. Over the past nine months, I’ve finally made the transition to being a machine learning practitioner.
