Edit: so im done with my preliminary research into this codebase.
Our corporate SSO provider is changing, so I’ve been updating our tools to take advantage of the new badges. I found this in a web application that I started on today. The original developer is long gone, and according to our PaaS, this app has been running for just under 3 years without an update.
There is no CI/CD, blue-green deployment, or back ups. The database is an H2 db with ddl-auto set to create-drop on startup, meaning that this database will delete itself if the app is restaged but thanks to this guys code, it won’t populate itself. 🤷
Ohh, valid point. So many organisations not testing their restore procedures.
At one of the businesses I worked at, the backup was very slow, and at some point the daily backup started taking more than 24 hours. You can probably guess what happened after that.
Hold on I have to go check something
