Post-OOP Imperative Functional Java.
Model the process. Not the domain.

Most Java code still asks the wrong question:
"What is this domain object?"
But production systems fail, scale, and burn because of processes, not nouns.

If your system is a sequence of irreversible steps, model it as a sequence,
not as interacting objects pretending to be immortal.

This follows ideas from Railway-Oriented Programming (ROP):
errors and decisions are values, not control-flow side effects.

Modeling the process means you can read this top to bottom
and understand exactly what happens.
No debugger. No IDE magic. No tribal knowledge.

Control flow is explicit.
You see the execution order.
Nothing hides in constructors, annotations, or overrides.

Failure is a first-class concept.
Once it fails or decides early, nothing else runs.
No exception archaeology.

Processes > Objects.
Real systems are workflows where refactoring is safe.

Steps are reordered, removed, or replaced
without collapsing a class hierarchy.
Testing is trivial, small stepwise context — even for an AI.

Feed input. Assert final result.
No mocking five layers of indirection.

GraalVM / native-friendly.
No reflection rituals.
The compiler smiles.

Objects are great for long-lived entities.
User actions, payments, rules, and failures are short-lived processes.

I model what happens,
not what pretends to exist forever.

Influenced by:
Railway-Oriented Programming,
Functional Core / Imperative Shell,
Workflow / Saga patterns,
Command pipelines,
Unix philosophy,
and value-oriented libraries like Vanilla-DI.

Don't be stuck in axioms.

En microservicios, las transacciones ACID no escalan. El Saga Pattern ofrece consistencia eventual sin bloquear recursos. A veces, soltar el control absoluto es la mejor decisión arquitectónica. 🔧

#ICYMI - The #InfoQ article introduces RIG (Reversible, Irreversible, and Guaranteed) – a gamified tool that helps teams design data-consistent microservice systems like solving a puzzle.

Learn about the three RIG rules, starting with two internal saga constraints, followed by the external saga constraint.

Introducing the RIG Model - the Puzzle of Designing Guaranteed Data-Consistent Microservice Systems

The RIG model formulates three rules for a saga call chain. A gamified RIG tool can be used by teams to model a microservice system that guarantees eventual data consistency.

Nice article by @pul (account inactive, I think) about saga pattern in Elixir. Mostly just intro to sagas in general.

#swDevTermOfTheDay The #SagaPattern solves the bad scalability of distributed (business) transactions with two-phase-commit by breaking the business transaction into activities which can be reverted with undo-steps, e.g. like a booking which can be cancelled.
Microservices and the Saga Pattern

Microservices have become a crucial part of any enterprise these days, no matter if it is a big or a small enterprise. When something this big is present in the market why not see some fundamentals of the same? So here we'll go through the concepts like what is a microservice and Saga Patterns that an ideal microservice should have.
