And conversely, if you need software with that kind of accuracy (for example, a billing application), you shouldn’t be using AI. How do we test software whose behavior is fundamentally probabilistic? We hope you’ll join us at our upcoming events: O’Reilly Software Architecture Conference , New York, February 23-26.

They know that feature engineering is critical for many models, so they want to stay in control of model inputs and feature engineering logic. Instead, we heard stories about projects where getting the first version to production took surprisingly long?—?mainly

The 2010s were a turning-point in the history of software engineering. or “How do software architecture, domains, Conway’s Law, Team Topologies, and value streams all fit together?”. Looking Ahead… Momentum is clearly building around the concept of value streams and the discipline of Value Stream Architecture.

I’ve been disappointed for a long time with the way in which companies organise software development teams. 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. A clear warning sign.

Engineering for Speed and Reliability It shouldn’t be treated as a law that teams will clash when there is a dependency between their products, even if there is a big difference in mindset. A good engineering organization moves at speed with high reliability. It doesn’t need to be a choice of one over the other.

A trip to the supermarket can teach you a lot about designing software systems and shaping teams to build them… I was recently in need of some chocolate sauce.

In software, reacting to unforeseen circumstances in real-time is not possible. The gap between defining business requirements and translating them into software needs to be minimised in order to prevent this category of problems. In the software system, we need to decide the business transaction boundaries aka DDD Aggregates.
