Why applying chaos engineering to data-intensive applications matters

Dynatrace

MAY 23, 2024

Stream processing One approach to such a challenging scenario is stream processing, a computing paradigm and software architectural style for data-intensive software systems that emerged to cope with requirements for near real-time processing of massive amounts of data. This significantly increases event latency.

How architecture evolves into strategy

O'Reilly Software

OCTOBER 23, 2018

A look at the roles of architect and strategist, and how they help develop successful technology strategies for business. I should start by saying this section does not offer a treatise on how to do architecture. Technology systems are difficult to wrangle. Our systems grow in accidental complexity and complication over time.

Legacy Architecture Modernisation With Strategic Domain-Driven Design

Strategic Tech

JULY 21, 2020

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. How are we going to deliver the new architecture? What’s the business vision?

The figure below shows the typical life-cycle of an architecture modernization initiative, including commonly observed points where we have observed AMET formation. Their technology landscape has a high level of what they consider to be legacy or heritage systems — monolithic systems with tens or hundreds of developers working in them.

As a system grows, higher-order abstractions are needed for ease of understanding, communication, and management. Individual teams may be full-stack/end-to-end or dedicated presentation/domain teams. An Experience Group is a collection of teams which handle only experience and presentation concerns.

At NDC Porto 2022, I teamed up with Maxime Sanglan-Charlier to run our 2 hour software architecture-themed workshop. Maybe I can’t describe how I feel, but it’s just so different to a flat list of slides that all the popular presentation tools use. The system I use is to number my slides using the format {section number}.{slide

There’s a straight line between strong decision-making and good software architecture

O'Reilly Software

NOVEMBER 18, 2019

Thoughtful and effective decision-making was a key trend at the O’Reilly Software Architecture Conference in Berlin 2019. The ability to make good decisions might be the most important aspect of a software architecture practitioner’s job. Every day.every week.every month, you make critical architectural decisions.

MAY 3, 2021

Mapping out your business’s domain landscape has many benefits: knowledge sharing, generating product ideas, providing the foundation for software architecture, aligning on requirements, but a common challenge is… “where do we start?” The best place to start will depend on the goals of the workshops, who is present, and other factors.

A trip to the supermarket can teach you a lot about designing software systems and shaping teams to build them… I was recently in need of some chocolate sauce. Different parts of your system will change together at different times based on your business requirements. Shall we get a Viennetta ? That sounds good. with ice cream).

Sequencing Architecture Modernization: Risk Averse vs Risk Tolerant

Strategic Tech

JUNE 2, 2021

Modernizing an architecture usually take years. Even a decade or more is nothing out of the ordinary for large organizations who have accumulated legacy and heritage systems over long periods of time. As a result, there can be pressure to begin modernizing a part of the system that will have a clear business impact.

Modelling Bounded Contexts with the Bounded Context Design Canvas: A Workshop Recipe

Strategic Tech

JULY 22, 2019

How do we break a large system into smaller, more manageable modular components? 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. Both a wide and deep knowledge of the business and domain is essential.

Martin Fowler argues that internal quality of a software system enables new features and improvements to be delivered more sustainably. Spread Domain Expertise Design is more than generic technical patterns that can be applied to almost software system. It can be a cost-effective approach.

Gateway Interchange Contexts

FEBRUARY 14, 2019

When your software system communicates with external systems or devices, there is good reason to isolate all communication with the external system into a single place and perform the relevant translation there. An Example Gateway Interchange Context Consider a software system for remotely managing and monitoring devices.

But it comes with the overheads of having to find a time where everybody can be present and not working. Teams will synchronise frequently in order to determine: Where are the boundaries in the system and which team will own which pieces? Without this planning, you are pitting teams against each other.

You’re building a new system and two members of your team propose alternative architectures for sending notifications. Consider the scenario: an in-house notifications system is to be replaced by an off-the-shelf solution. It’s a route for information flowing in and out of the system. Which one is correct? Definitely not.
