On the other hand, very few data scientists feel strongly about the nature of the data warehouse, the compute platform that trains and scores their models, or the workflow scheduler. In this hypothetical example, the flow trains two versions of a model in parallel and chooses the one with the highest score.

In Domain-Driven Design, a large system is decomposed into bounded contexts , which become natural boundaries in code as microservices and as teams in the organisation. The Bounded Context Design Canvas I designed this canvas based on the typical flow of strategic DDD workshops I run publicly and privately.

Layers start to emerge and as a result, shipping new customer-facing features require changes that cut through multiple layers of the architecture. Being aware of the patterns inherent to layered sociotechnical architectures can save you a lot of pain and politics in the long-term. As a consequence, we also have subservient teams?—?teams

Is there any way it’s possible to predict the future so that our architecture can easily absorb the changes we need to make of it? One thing I want you to notice is that good architecture is about more than just defining good boundaries. In DDD a bounded context is an independent, loosely-coupled architectural component.

Live online training, videos, books, certification prep, and more, from O’Reilly and our partner publishers. Designing a survey inevitably entails making a spate of methodological trade-offs. First, our survey didn’t ask respondents if they (or their organizations) have adopted microservices architecture.

In-person training and conferences have been postponed, cancelled, or transitioned to the virtual world. We’ve certainly been affected by this shift at Particular with the cancellation of our popular Advanced Distributed Systems Design (ADSD) course this year. My colleagues who’d attended it before felt the same way.

One thing stand-out to me is being intentional and practical about your engineering organisation design. First and foremost, being intentional about organisation design requires good and honest discussions about all possible option. In this model, software architecture and code ownership is a reflection of the organisational model.

It’s one thing to identify bottlenecks and implement optimizations for a specific website or a few similar websites, and quite another when dealing with many millions of websites, having such a wide variety of functionality, and an almost total freedom of design. Instead, we have to accommodate all of this variability, mostly on-demand.

You’re building a new system and two members of your team propose alternative architectures for sending notifications. How will you design the most effective architecture which supports short-term goals and long-term evolution? Which one is correct? How would you architect the solution?

Scott Havens, Senior Director of Engineering at Mode Operandi, highlighted the benefits of event-based systems over legacy approaches, and how software architecture should be just as beautiful as the clothes on sale. Just look at how ugly that service-oriented architecture is!” Compliance doesn’t need to scary, stressed Levins.
