Here are five considerations every software architect and developer needs to take into account when setting the architectural foundations for a fast data platform. They have a clear input and output definition, and often a schema as well. Determine requirements first. Leverage the convergence of fast data and microservices.

First of all, I want to concentrate on software code quality (vs. larger topics, including problem definition, documentation, UX, design, etc.). High-quality software is software that has fewer bugs (and a shorter tail of fixing remaining issues).

CIO: “I wish I could give a definitive answer. Bottlenecks from internal processes and a dated software architecture severely affected morale. Me: “How is it going?”. Throughout this period, the development teams had been overloaded by all the changes and outsized backlogs. Culture was blamed for the lack of results.

This gets tricky at times when collaborating with different companies or communities that use different definitions. To reduce undesired ambiguity in communication consider using the specific definitions. I encounter this problem quite frequently when the word domain is used in the context of business and software architecture.

Context Overview Definition Begin by filling in the name of your bounded context and a description. Once you complete the following steps, repeat the process until you have defined all of your bounded contexts. Try to approximately divide your time equally between the number of candidate bounded contexts you identified.

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.

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. I remember when the idea of multiple databases was punishable by death.
