There are thousands of ways we can shape the software systems we build and organise our teams around them. Yet there is no flowchart we can simply follow to find the optimal design. Sociotechnical systems are complex systems formed of complex systems. We have the unpredictable nature of markets.

If you facilitate or attend domain discovery workshops, one of the most effective and simplest ways to uncover insights is to make the scale or size of something explicit.

Domain-Driven Design is an approach to designing systems, usually software, that emphasises creating a common language between domain experts and system builders. Here’s an example I use in talks and workshops: How to group these concepts into domains? Domains are subjective and they are not mutually exclusive.

The key to loose coupling is to understand how the system you are building is going to change, and minimising the cost of those changes. 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? It could be a microservice or a module within a monolith.
