Hi everyone

We're glad to announce that we're going to conduct the seventh meetup on 16th of June!

"Why so hard?" by Oleksandr Tryshchenko

A year ago, I talked with my friend, who started his yet another small project with Node and AWS. I immensely enjoyed his explanation of his architecture. However, some protest has ignited inside me, and I started my research and experiments on how we can do smaller things less complicated. I want to share my findings with you.

* Areas and domains where simpler approaches are feasible

* Low concurrency databases

* Low concurrency caching strategies

* How to design a small app in a way writing tests is easier

* How to host app without a cloud infrastructure

* Ten lines of code CI/CD for small projects

* Fault tolerance for small apps

* Basic security

I won't just tell you about things, but create an app using all those things during our talk during the webinar so that you can think of it as a micro-workshop as well.
