While these metrics are key in measuring flow in a specific area of the value stream (such as measuring lead time between code commit and deploy), they do not reflect the reality of how long it really takes to deliver business value from ideation to operation.

We will be running a remote-optimised domain-driven design workshop on 15–16th June where we will use some of the techniques discussed in this post and many others, like the bounded context canvas. We can use these to capture outcomes from the workshop aka follow-up actions. In my in-person workshops, I’ve faced this hard limitation.

As our legacy systems become less maintainable the negative spiral begins: the code is hard to evolve, nobody enjoys working on it, features take ages to deliver, politics ramp up…. Sometimes, we may have very well maintained software but the architecture doesn’t align with how we’d like to set up our teams. frontend, backend, DBAs).

Each person is responsible for the outcome because team performance is measured on collective output (specifically, stories in production) as opposed to the sum of individual output (tasks completed by individuals). One person who does a substandard job affects the performance of the entire team.

Layers start to emerge and as a result, shipping new customer-facing features require changes that cut through multiple layers of the architecture. Subsequently, the problem of coordinating multiple teams arises, each with their own backlog and performance goals to achieve. These concepts also apply to distributed architectures.

Loosely-coupled teams enabled by loosely-coupled software architecture is one of the strongest predictors of continuous delivery performance and organizational scaling.
