Most organisations go through an architecture modernisation effort at some point as their systems drift into a state of intolerable maintenance costs and they diverge too far from modern technological advances. Before jumping into either of those scenarios, have a look at what Strategic Domain-Driven Design can offer you.

Creating an ecosystem that facilitates data security and data privacy by design can be difficult, but it’s critical to securing information. When organizations focus on data privacy by design, they build security considerations into cloud systems upfront rather than as a bolt-on consideration.
