Architecture modernization initiatives aim to convert aging architecture into modern architecture, applying the latest tech innovations and architectural patterns. The architecture becomes easier and cheaper to change, enabling faster flow, and reducing technical debt, fragility and security concerns.

One of the challenges I see regularly is inertia following domain discovery workshops. Start by mapping out the current state of your domains If you’re not sure what your domains are, I have created a Strategic DDD Kata which provides a scenario for you to practice designing domain boundaries.

The organization needs to innovate faster to become more competitive. They need a more loosely coupled architecture and empowered teams. The Warehousing Modernization Enabling Team (an AMET) has been established to guide modernization in the Warehousing domain, which consists of 100+ software engineers and a monolithic codebase.

The techniques we use for visual, collaborative domain modelling are designed for in-person events, where everybody is in the same physical space. 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.

In every workshop, I always ask everyone “Imagine there is no text here. What do you read from the image below, and what might you propose to do next in the workshop? We’re not investing enough in potential future innovations and sources of revenue. You can do this with almost any visual workshop technique.

The Nature of Evolution New innovations often become the platform for future innovations. Since then, Google Maps has become the foundation for many other innovations after being opened up to developers via APIs. I suggest regular domain discovery workshops to identify hidden domain coupling.

Loosely-coupled teams enabled by loosely-coupled software architecture is one of the strongest predictors of continuous delivery performance and organizational scaling. Decoupling Streams of Work Our goal when designing systems is to maximise the speed of delivery and value of the work we deliver.
