Radio Liferay
Welcome to Radio Liferay, a peek into what is going on in Liferay from the people doing it themselves.
Radio Liferay Episode 58: Jorge Ferrer continued
Two episodes (or an eternity) ago, I spoke to Jorge Ferrer, Liferay's VP of Engineering. We didn't have enough time to finish the conversation, so we continued a while after - and then I buried the recording /o\. Anyway, apart from it being still from "before the release of the current version", it's still relevant stuff, I feel bad about missing to post it. Check for yourself - here it finally is.
As before, we're speaking about various internal and external topics and I've also been teasing him a bit.
We're talking about these (and more) topics
- Microservices vs Monoliths
- Buzzword or breeze of fresh air?
- DHH The Majestic Monolith
- Approach this technology option like any other
- If you can't build a monolith, you are probably getting an even bigger mess if you approach microservices
- Milen's presentation: Microservices and Modularity or the difference between treatment and cure (or on youtube)
- Shortly before the release many modules were moved around and renamed. We talk about the reasons and what this meant for the translations
- What's the meaning of "Feature-Complete"?
- A lot of Feedback starts to come in during the Beta Cycle
- Nitpicking on the Beta Criteria: JBoss and Upgrade Routines
- Lookahead on the next episode on Performance Tuning
- Releaseplans (of course, I could have retrofitted an exact release date...)
- What's it like to be hired into Liferay Engineering?
- https://liferay.com/careers
- office envy
- shared spaces, decoration, own desks, separate working environments, inspiration, agora
- Is it forbidden to write Javadoc?

Radio Liferay Episode 56: Jorge Ferrer
Today I'm welcoming a repeat guest, Jorge Ferrer, Liferay's VP of Engineering. I've had the great opportunity to ask him a lot of questions that provide deep insight into what's running behind the scenes in the engineering team. We didn't have enough time, so this is part 1 of our conversation, to be continued in episode 58. I need to squeeze in the (already recorded) episode that contains more information about the Javadoc Contest (please participate). Those episode links will work once the two episodes are public)
Jorge gives an update on various internal as well as external topics. I'm also teasing him a bit, and hope that this episode will be as insightful for you as it was for me.
We're talking about these (and more) topics
- the engineering team passed the 150 people mark, distributed world wide.
- Communication in a team that's distributed through the world, tools
- Some nasty german guy recently took Jorge's #3 contributor place on the public forums
- Participation & Contribution: Check https://dev.liferay.com/participate.
- What happens to pullrequests to the Liferay repository? Should you rather direct to the component lead?
- Coding Standards, Design Patterns and how many you want to use in a single project
- Pullrequests and who's working on them.
- The experience of upgrading the architecture to OSGi in Liferay 7
- Jorge's Architecture Blog Article(s)
- News about Developer Network: Many new project documented there
- We're closing (for today) with a short fun quiz about new frontend tools introduced with Liferay 7, in which Jorge earns his street credibility.
- stay tuned for the continuation of this episode, most likely in episode 58.
