@aliostad
/// anecdote
Often you can measure your success in
implementing Microservice Architecture not
by the number of services you build, but by
the number you decommission.

@aliostad
/// microservices vs soa

Main Goal Architectual Decoupling Business Agility
Set out to solve Architectural Coupling
Scaling People,
Frequent Deployment
Audience Mainly Architecture Business (Everyone)

“The ﬁrst production version of Dapper used a uniform sampling
probability for all processes at Google, averaging one sampled trace for
every 1024 candidates… [however] we are in the process of deploying
an adaptive sampling scheme that is parameterized not by a uniform
sampling probability, but by a desired rate of sampled traces per unit
time.”

implementation of CollectorSampler abstract class.
