There are a few qualities that differentiate average from high performing software engineering organisations. I believe that attitude towards the design of code and architecture is one of them. Both valuing design and striving for continuous delivery are necessary. So we need to make it part of everything we do.

Having just concluded participation in another In-Memory Computing Summit , it has become even more clear to me that the key to mainstream adoption of in-memory computing software platforms is architecture — the root of a platform’s value to applications. The digital twin model for stateful stream-processing is a case in point.
