The Q2 2018 ThoughtWorks Radar came out and some trends jumped out to me:
- Rise of service mesh: Istio and Linkerd were in the spotlight
- Infrastructure as code maturity: Terraform, Pulumi, and friends
- Testing evolution: contract-first, API simulation, and property-based testing
I particularly liked the callout on chaos engineering entering the adoption phase. We were just starting to evaluate Gremlin for controlled failure testing.
As always, Radar gave me ideas to test out in the next sprint.
