Kubernetes killed more startups than server crashes ever did

You don't have Spotify's scale. You have 8 engineers and a single server that's running fine

But you watched a KubeCon talk, and now you've got 23 YAML files, a Helm chart nobody fully understands, and engineers debugging pod evictions instead of buildinga  product

Your "cloud-native infrastructure" is just a cloud bill with extra complexity

A $50/month VM can handle millions of requests. Your startup will run out of money debugging networking issues long before you need horizontal pod autoscaling

The best infrastructure decision is often the simplest one

We see more tools enabling you to create software architecture and other diagrams as code. 

The main benefit of using this concept is that 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝗽𝗶𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗱𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Another benefit driving the growing use of diagrams-as-code to create software architecture is that it enables text-based tooling, which most software developers already use.

For architecture, as code, we can use different tools, such as:

𝟭. 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗿: Create multiple diagrams from a single (C4) model. https://structurizr.com/

𝟮. 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗨𝗠𝗟: It is an open-source tool that allows users to create diagrams from plain text. https://lnkd.in/dWKnyicV

𝟯. 𝗗𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀: Turn Python code into cloud system architecture diagrams. https://lnkd.in/gPcpcJ7z

𝟰. 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗱: Generation of diagram and flowchart from a text similar to Markdown. https://lnkd.in/dsTGKbwM

𝟱. 𝗔𝗦𝗖𝗜𝗜 𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿: Free editor for drawing ASCII diagrams. https://asciiflow.com/

𝟲. 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗺𝗮𝗽: Could you visualize your Markdown as mind maps? It supports the VS Code plugin. https://markmap.js.org/

𝟳. 𝗚𝗼 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀: Create system diagrams with Go. https://lnkd.in/d-cAq8zB

𝟴. 𝗦𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗗𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺.𝗼𝗿𝗴: You can create your UML sequence diagrams online using text notation. https://lnkd.in/drux93gN

As a .NET Developer, you probably already know C#, ASP .NET, and other technologies, but in today's cloud-first world, knowing Microsoft Azure is essential for running and deploying your apps. 

This article provides a step-by-step roadmap for .NET developers who want to master Azure, from the basics to advanced DevOps and architecture.

1) Cloud Fundamentals

Lay the foundation so nothing feels mysterious later

• IaaS / PaaS / SaaS distinctions
• Regions & Availability Zones
• SLAs & cost basics

2) Azure Basics

Learn how Azure is organized and controlled

• Azure Portal, CLI & PowerShell
• Microsoft Entra ID & RBAC (access control)
• Resource groups & tags
• Azure Policy fundamentals

3) .NET Compute + Hosting

Deploy your services reliably

• App Service (web app deployment patterns)
• Azure Functions (triggers & bindings)
• Containers fundamentals + Azure Container Registry
• AKS basics (container orchestration)

4) Data Services

Store and connect data with patterns that scale

• Azure SQL + EF Core practices
• Cosmos DB (multi-model, partitioning)
• Blob & Queue Storage essentials
• Service Bus & Event Grid (async/eventing)

5) DevOps & Automation

Shift from manual to repeatable, safe workflows

• GitHub Actions / Azure DevOps pipelines
• Infrastructure as Code: Bicep (Terraform optional)
• Automated builds, tests & gates
• Deployment strategies (canary, blue/green)

6) Security & Identity

Security isn’t optional once you’re live

• Azure Key Vault & secret management
• Managed identities for services
• App security patterns & best practices

7) Observability & Ops

Run it healthily in production, not just launch it

• Application Insights (traces + metrics)
• Log Analytics & KQL basics
• Alerts + dashboards that teams use
• Resilience patterns (retry, circuit breaker)

8) Architecture & Ops

Make systems that tolerate stress and evolve

• Scalability patterns (CQRS, event-driven, partitioning)
• Microservices vs modular monolith thinking
• Cost optimization in design decisions
• Multi-region distribution fundamentals

Cert milestones you can align with:
AZ-900 → AZ-204 → AZ-400 → AZ-305

Vibe coding is good at spitting a lot of code, fast

But you still need to know architecture and system design

As well as fundamentals

Because, if you don't, you will get a big ball of mud, fast

Most engineering leaders blame slow delivery on headcount. The real problem is invisible waste

In 2003, Mary and Tom Poppendieck mapped Lean manufacturing principles to software and identified seven types of waste. Every PR sitting in review, every feature nobody uses, every time a new hire rediscovers what a departed engineer knew, that's waste compounding quietly

But the original seven aren't the whole story. A 2017 empirical study by Sedano et al. observed eight software projects over two years and found new categories

And now there's a new one. GitClear analyzed 211 million lines of code and found that code churn doubled from 2021 to 2024 as AI coding assistants proliferated. Copy-pasted code jumped from 8% to 12%. We're generating waste faster than ever

The good news: once you learn to see waste, you can eliminate it
