Thanks to the pandemic, working from home no longer languishes as a rare option for a few workers. It’s mainstream business practice.

With this work transformation, the desktop is also changing. Decades ago, we used dumb terminals attached to mainframes for corporate work.

About a year ago, I wrote a post on the hub and spoke data model. The idea is that in the future SaaS applications would be built on a single database, instead of each SaaS application writing to its own proprietary database. I was wrong about the catalyst for this hub-and-spoke model. I thought it would be cloud-prem and customers driving SaaS products to use a single database.

These services are loosely coupled and independently deployable. This architecture emerged as a solution to the old monolithic approach to web application development.

The early days of SEO were like the Wild, Wild West. Blackhat SEO experts were doing everything imaginable to rank their sites on Google. That included keyword stuffing and creating spammy backlinks on a regular basis. Admittedly, for a time, it totally worked. These days, Google’s SERP Algorithm has really cracked down on content quality – and those older SEO hacks have long crumbled to dust.
