Likewise, the term "architect" didn't enter popular usage to describe a role in the software field until the late 1990s. It's a given that we must design a system, including a local software architecture, that actually runs, that is "solid." the user experience and design) and within the software construction itself.

It makes a lot of sense to organise teams around specific user journeys or user personas in order to design the optimal end-to-end experience. Check the Reviews team in the Org Design for Design Orgs example later in this article. There is cohesiveness between the frontend and backend elements these teams own.

Simply put, a Byzantine Fault is a fault that presents different symptoms to different observers. Several system architectures were designed that implement Byzantine Fault Tolerance. Similarly, a Byzantine Failure is the loss of a system component due to a Byzantine Fault in a distributed system that requires consensus.

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.

Agile is not, and never was, about getting developers to write software faster. If you were involved with professional programming in the 80s and 90s, you may remember how radical it was (and, in many shops, still is) to put software developers in touch with users and customers. This is important. Neckbeards? Geeks and nerds?
