I’ll need to reread this a few times, but this is gold <https://martinfowler.com/articles/cant-buy-integration.html>

This feels like a much better explanation of the “Useful Abstractions” part of <https://meltano.com/blog/our-next-steps-for-building-the-dataops-os/>

HN thread <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29478375>

pretty great writeup. Such a hard problem to articulate, but it's super important

&gt;  the lines are the hidden and often primary driver of organizational tech debt
That line is :chef-kiss:  to me, most people don't see that, and it leads to (imo) 10's to 100's of people being hired to solve just the integration problem instead of focusing on growing the business

Was thinking about this some more, I like a lot of this article but I'm not so sure about the assumption that "you have the best context" therefore one person/team should build the interfaces that are required. Seems backwards to me
