How does Lightcast design a skill?
AWS AppSync refers to a managed GraphQL API service from Amazon Web Services (AWS) used to connect applications with data sources and backend services. It supports creating APIs, managing queries, mutations, subscriptions, real-time data synchronization, authentication, and integration with AWS resources. In work settings, it is applied by developers to build scalable application communication layers, simplify data access, and maintain reliable connections between client applications and backend systems.
Actor Model refers to a computational model that treats "actors" as the fundamental units of computation, where each actor can send and receive messages, create new actors, and manage its own state. This skill encompasses understanding the principles of concurrency and distributed systems, enabling the design of scalable and resilient applications. Knowledge of the Actor Model is used to facilitate communication between components in a system, allowing for efficient handling of asynchronous tasks and improved fault tolerance in software development.
Cloud Firestore refers to a cloud based document database skill used to store, organize, and retrieve application data in a flexible structure. It is applied in software development to support data synchronization, real time updates, and scalable access across web and mobile applications. The skill includes designing data models, performing queries, and managing records for reliable application behavior.
GraphQL is an open-source data query and manipulation language used for APIs. It provides a standardized way for clients to query, mutate, and subscribe to data, enabling a more efficient and flexible communication between the client and server. It allows clients to request only the specific data they need, reducing the amount of data transfered and improving performance. It is becoming increasingly popular and is used by companies like Facebook, GitHub, and Shopify.
Technical Debt refers to the concept of incurring future costs in software development due to suboptimal design or implementation choices made for short-term gains. This skill involves identifying, managing, and prioritizing these compromises to ensure long-term maintainability and performance of software systems. Knowledge of Technical Debt is used to assess the impact of these decisions on project timelines and resource allocation, enabling teams to make informed choices about refactoring and improving code quality.
