A software architect with two decades of experience realized the fundamental difference in error handling between pilots and developers while sitting in a commercial airliner's cockpit.
Aviation principles have been applied to software development to transform error handling, resulting in more resilient systems, reduced outages, and faster development cycles.
Pilots operate from an entirely different paradigm when it comes to handling errors, leading to a revolution in how errors are managed in software.
The article shares two parallel scenarios to illustrate the contrasting approaches to error handling between pilots and developers.
