The Relationship Between Software Architecture And Business Models (and more)

Strategic Tech

If every significant architecture decision has business consequences, then knowing the business model and which trade-offs to choose is maybe the most important skill of architects. But what is the actual relationship between a business model and a software architecture? How does all of this relate to the software architecture?

Up your quality and agility factor – using automation to build “performance-as-a-self-service”

Dynatrace

This involves new software delivery models, adapting to complex software architectures, and embracing automation for analysis and testing. Here is the definition of this model: ?. One way to apply improvements is transforming the way application performance engineering and testing is done. Performance-as-a-self-service

Building High-Quality Software

DZone

It sits at the very beginning of the process before the code is written and can save an immense amount of time down the road (of somebody spending tons of time just to get to a dead-end). I really like what one of the smartest people with whom I worked said: “A good design is a design where you can see the code”. Important note.

How architecture evolves into strategy

O'Reilly Software

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. It's a given that we must design a system, including a local software architecture, that actually runs, that is "solid."

The Unicorn Project Review: Finding Flow with the Five Ideals 

Tasktop

And that data is starting to substantiate the empirical significance of the five ideals: First Ideal — Locality and Simplicity : The most common Flow Velocity bottleneck that we have observed to date has been a misalignment between software architecture and product value streams. Neither is Risk work (eg., Security).

Revisiting “Serverless Architectures”

The Symphonia

But I’ve already done that elsewhere, with John, so I left it with adding a link to our definition. I think there’s definitely a place for both models for now, as I describe. However there’s still the question of how much behavior should go in API GW vs. in Lambda code?—?this I thought it might do?—?I

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

Strategic Tech

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. Context Overview Definition Begin by filling in the name of your bounded context and a description. There is no shortcut to identifying good boundaries.
