Creating an ecosystem that facilitates data security and data privacy by design can be difficult, but it’s critical to securing information. When organizations focus on data privacy by design, they build security considerations into cloud systems upfront rather than as a bolt-on consideration.

In companies with many teams and many millions of lines of code, including a lot of legacy, there are endless things that can be improved in the product, software, and organization. Some technology leaders feel like they don’t have the experience and skills to confidently lead major technology and organizational modernizations.

I’ve heard the opinion from many technical leaders that it is reasonable to expect a new hire to take upto 6 months to learn about the code, the domain, and the architecture before they become fully productive. I believe that self-documenting architecture would dramatically reduce one of the big costs in software development.

What is required is a software architecture that enables seamless migration without requiring application code to be reimplemented for execution on edge-based platforms. We can leverage its data and code encapsulation to transparently migrate low-level event handling functionality to the edge – where the devices live.

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.

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. The products themselves are software systems which grow harder and harder to reason about as they scale and age.

Traditional monolithic architectures are built around the concept of large applications that are self-contained, independent, and incorporate myriad capabilities. As developers move to microservice-centric designs, components are broken into independent services to be developed, deployed, and maintained separately. Microservices cons.

I remember as a young, naive software developer, I assumed there would be structured processes and patterns similar to those used for designing a software architecture. I crave structure and analytical thinking patterns to design optimal solutions. There are too many variables involved.

What does a modern technology stack for streamlined ML processes look like? All ML projects are software projects. If you peek under the hood of an ML-powered application, these days you will often find a repository of Python code. In effect, the engineer designs and builds the world wherein the software operates.

One thing stand-out to me is being intentional and practical about your engineering organisation design. First and foremost, being intentional about organisation design requires good and honest discussions about all possible option. Specialisation could be around products, business process, or technologies.

The microservices era has been good for software architecture. A domain service builds on the basic definition of a microservice: it’s a loosely-coupled, independently deployable element of software architecture which is owned by a single team. A common question in designing a domain is “how big should a domain be?”

It’s not about getting software developers to write code faster. Perhaps the appropriate yardstick for AI projects is the experiment itself, not the code committed to git.). This has to do with the concept of bounded context from Domain Driven Design.). And that’s a big clue about what the word “Agile” means.
