A collaborative blog by developers
EvolvingCode is a collaborative blog where developers share hard-earned lessons from building real software. No fluff, no tutorials - just practical insights on code quality, performance, and the problems we actually solved.
You disabled open-in-view. Now what? @EntityGraph, @Transactional, batch_fetch_size, Split Queries, and DTO Projection — measured on real PostgreSQL.
How a corruption bug looked like a gRPC problem, but was actually caused by unordered async writes during client-side file persistence.
How Spring Boot's default open-in-view setting caused a silent deadlock with virtual threads and TransactionTemplate.
You already know you need a broker. Now the question is which one — and the answer changes how you design your entire event system.
