I'm often presented with architectural diagrams showing a cache layer (Redis) sitting between the application and MongoDB. I've writen this article to explain if/when that architecture is the best approach @MongoDB

It surprises many that what they think of as “schemaless” MongoDB has built-in schema validation. Learn how to combine this with @MongoDB's superpower of allowing developers to evolve the schema over time.

I’ve been on WiFi most of the time, and so a bit shocked by this. My grandfathered-in Three GoRoam doesn’t give me free data in Thailand - but even if it was an included country, it’s capped at 12 GB per month - suddenly doesn’t feel like such a great deal.

No regrets on paying $20 for a local unlimited data eSIM for a work trip to Thailand. 218 GB in just over a week so far. 213 just from tethering my work laptop for a couple of hours - crazy how fast you can burn through data when you constantly have a great 5G connection

I had one-on-one meetings with 154 project teams to give them technical advice on how best to used MongoDB for their application – this was across 59 different customers. Presented at 42 events, across 15 countries.

Yesterday marked the end of the @MongoDB financial year, and so I decided to check my stats on a busy year of working with our strategic accounts.

We’re approaching the holiday season, and this is traditionally a time to compose top 10 lists. I’ll kick it off with the 10 worst iPhone apps. Concur, British Airways. No other apps I use come even close, and so I’ll stop there.

Businesses, please stop phoning me and asking me to give you my personal/security details to prove who I am - I’m never going to respond. Virgin Media used to do it all the time, now it’s @edfenergy (or so they claim!). Desensitising people to phishing attacks is a dumb idea.

A requirement for the nation to have last hosted the event in 1966 would be a bonus.

A crazy idea. Pick a single nation with a strong football culture, the required stadiums and infrastructure, and a decent human rights record. People should be able to travel between matches without the need for passports, visas and long flights.

Still on the ground. That’s about 4 hours sat on this plane, watching the chances of making my connection fly away.

It’s now closer to 4 hours on the tarmac. Almost certainly missed my connection.

Seriously. Sat on the tarmac for close to 3 hours. No sign of movement. Connecting flight is now just a dream. Is it too late to get off?.

Researching VPN options to watch the England Argentina RWC match during my flight to India - I’ll probably regret it. If we don’t play any better than in the 6 Nations & the warm up matches then I don’t see myself getting up at 2am on a Monday in Jakarta to watch the next game.
