Conference: Nov 5-7, 2018
Workshops: Nov 8–9, 2018

Workshop: [SOLD OUT] Architecture Without an End State

Location:

  • Bayview B
Level: 
TBD

When:

  • Thursday
9:00am - 4:00pm

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with basic architecture principles, such as system boundary and separation of concerns
  • A laptop with some diagramming software (Visio or OmniGraffle are preferred)

This workshop is sold out.

What you'll learn:

  • Learn how to design systems that can evolve over time in the face of technological and business change
  • Understand when the “single system of record” pattern applies and when it does not
  • Learn how to combine microservices with legacy systems
  • Learn to make your systems glide smoothly from web to mobile to chat apps
  • Find new ways to separate concerns for better information hiding
  • Learn about ways to isolate information to allow independent change
  • Learn how to build systems in simpler pieces that can be recombined and recomposed to enable new business capabilities, all without running afoul of YAGNI
  • Know why aiming for the “end state” never works and what to do about it
