## Create the database

Because now we are going to use a new database in a new file, we need to make sure we create the database with:

```Python
Base.metadata.create_all(bind=engine)
```

That is normally called in `main.py`, but the line in `main.py` uses the database file `sql_app.db`, and we need to make sure we create `test.db` for the tests.

  static long load64Safely(byte[] input, int offset, int length) {

    // Due to the way we shift, we can stop iterating once we've run out of data, the rest
    // of the result already being filled with zeros.

    // This loop is critical to performance, so please check HashBenchmark if altering it.
    int limit = Math.min(length, 8);

    // DISCUSS
    "EqualsGetClass", // Let's agree if we want to adopt Error Prone's idea of valid equals()
    "JdkObsolete", // Most of the checks are good, but we do not want to replace all LinkedLists without a good reason

    // NEVER
    "MissingSummary", // We have another mechanism to check Javadocs on public API
    "InjectOnConstructorOfAbstractClass", // We use abstract injection as a pattern

- **Reduce the size of the Gradle distribution** - We no longer need to carry multiple standard libraries for different languages.

## Decision

We do not introduce new public API methods that include Groovy types in their signatures.
Existing Groovy methods will not be removed immediately.

ACCEPTED

## Consequences

 *       under all environments. We could fight this by fully qualifying the annotation, but the
 *       result will be verbose and attention-grabbing.
 *   <li>We need to be careful about how we suppress {@code suite()} methods in {@code common.io}.
 *       The generated suite for {@code FooTest} ends up containing {@code FooTest} itself plus some
 *       other tests. We want to exclude the other tests (which Android can't handle) while

	switch event.Event {
	case controllers.EventAdd:
		// pod was added to our cache
		// we get here in 2 cases:
		// 1. new pod was created on our node
		// 2. we were restarted and current existing pods are added to our cache

		// We have no good way to distinguish between these two cases from here. But we don't need to!
		// Existing pods will be handled by the dataplane using `GetAmbientPods`,

ACCEPTED

## Consequences

* We start to use Architectural Decision Records
* We use the proposed template from this ADR
* We locate `.md` files in the folder `/architecture-standards`
* We highly encourage usage of ADR to communicate decisions

## Decision

We do not use Java serialization.
Instead, we use custom serialization where we explicitly describe how data objects should be serialized and deserialized.

For internal purposes, we use binary formats for their brevity.
We use the `Serializer` abstraction to separate the actual implementation of serialization from its uses.

When sharing data with external tools, we use JSON.
