Hi, I'm Willie Wheeler, and I'm a Principal Applications Engineer for a leading provider of online travel services. I have sixteen years of professional software development experience, mostly around web application development using Java, JEE and Spring.
With Joshua White, I wrote the book Spring in Practice, for Manning Publications.
I run the Spring in Practice blog, which has technical articles about Java, JEE, Spring, IT management, usability and some other related topics.
Finally, I also run the new Zkybase blog on devops.

Supporting multitenancy This is a helpful distinction you guys are making around customizability. I think the same concept might apply toward manageability too. Our multitenancy probably aims at relatively fewer larger customers rather than long-tail customers. If the main purpose for multitenancy is to capture long-tail then it may not even be the right approach for us. Thanks for these reflections. |

Supporting multitenancy Probably from a design perspective this is the easiest, but from an administrative perspective it doesn't seem to be. At least our sysadmins are not very excited about this proposal. (And yeah, we're using VMs.) Way more instances to manage (monitoring, deployment, etc.) We are in fact looking at ways to make this more manageable to get some physical isolation here but on the face of it, this approach seems to trade dev simplicity for admin simplicity...? |

Refactoring: Isn't it just a fancy word for clean up your code? Sure, I can buy that. Test discipline is more about how one goes about performing the refactoring, but it isn't inherent in the definition. (I.e. I can refactor code without any tests at all.) I don't know if I can agree that refactoring isn't a methodology--there are whole books written with step-by-step patterns and so forth. |

Refactoring: Isn't it just a fancy word for clean up your code? I'm not saying that it's a good/safe/desirable to make major changes without test discipline. I'm saying that refactoring as a methodology involves test discipline, whereas "cleaning things up" isn't a methodology at all. |
