Engineering Software as a Service, by Armando Fox and David Patterson, Berkeley. They were on Coursera back when I took it, now they're on edX. It's actually an online version (maybe stripped down a bit, but still functional) of their CS169 course.

I learned several things from that course:

  • Ruby on Rails
  • managing my source code
  • Heroku
  • software engineering (wasn't a topic when I studied CS in the 80s/90s)
  • maintaining legacy code
