I should start by saying this section does not offer a treatise on how to do architecture. This is my tailored view of it; others will have different definitions. Vitruvius and the principles of architecture. Architecture begins when someone has a nontrivial problem to be solved. Solid doesn't mean inflexible.

However, some concepts in DDD do not have a clear definition and are highly implicit. Everybody has their own definition of Domain, Subdomain, Problem Space and Solution space. In this article, I’m going to provide working definitions of those concepts and clear them up. This definition of a domain is very fuzzy.

A strict definition of “cloud” must also include software-as-a-service (SaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offerings of all kinds—including email (Google G Suite email; Microsoft Exchange Online), office productivity suites (Google Docs and Sheets; Microsoft Office 365), and similar offerings.

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.

At NDC Porto 2022, I teamed up with Maxime Sanglan-Charlier to run our 2 hour software architecture-themed workshop. It’s a shame not to use physical space when in-person, so I think we definitely need to encourage more of this in future workshops. Smartphones definitely won’t be suitable for that.

Considerations for setting the architectural foundations for a fast data platform. Google was among the pioneers that created “web scale” architectures to analyze the massive data sets that resulted from “crawling” the web that gave birth to Apache Hadoop, MapReduce, and NoSQL databases. Back in the days of Web 1.0,

Loosely-coupled teams enabled by loosely-coupled software architecture is one of the strongest predictors of continuous delivery performance and organizational scaling. With loosely-coupled architectures we can invest more granularly where payback is greatest. Diligently-crafted boundaries give us strategic-flexibility.
