#17 (The Army of the) 12 Monkeys: a tale on reliable web app (RWA) patterns and 12 factor apps

What if you could travel back in time to prevent a global catastrophe? What if you had to deal with the paradoxes and uncertainties of changing the past? What if you were not sure what was real and what was not? These are some of the questions that the movie 12 Monkeys explores, as James Cole, a prisoner from the future, is sent on a mission to find the source of a deadly virus that has wiped out most of humanity. In this session, we will also explore how the movie’s themes and concepts can inspire us to build better web applications on the cloud, using the reliable web app (RWA) pattern and the 12 factor app methodology. We will learn how to apply the best practices of the Azure Well-Architected Framework and the 12 factor app principles to design and develop scalable, performant, and resilient web applications that run on any platform. We will also see how to use the RWA pattern reference implementation and the Azure services that support the 12 factors. Join me for this session, where we will combine science fiction and web development, and discover how to create web applications that can survive any scenario.
