It's been a long time since I read this. I just did a mental audit of the services my company runs, and they all (more or less) match what's in this document. It's not even a conscious thing anymore.

I think any mid-level backend engineer (or any web-related software engineer, for that matter) would do well to read through this and dive deeper into each of these recommendations to understand why they were chosen.
