It fundamentally changes how teams and tools work together with a common goal: deliver software faster, more frequently and with a higher degree of quality. You’ll be introduced to modern software architecture concepts, containers, feature flags, CI/CD pipeline tools, container orchestration tools, runbook automation tools and much more.

In companies with many teams and many millions of lines of code, including a lot of legacy, there are endless things that can be improved in the product, software, and organization. Some technology leaders feel like they don’t have the experience and skills to confidently lead major technology and organizational modernizations.

If you would like to learn or practice how to break up a large business into domains and use them as the foundation for your software architecture and team organization, I have created a strategic domain-driven design kata that you may find useful. Domain message flow modelling is used for this step.

Modernizing an architecture usually take years. This presents technology leaders with one of the most difficult modernization challenges: where to start and in which order to modernize? There are usually a number of factors which greatly complicate the situation. The key is being able to identify the last toothpaste in the tube.

In business, technology and general, the word “domain” appears frequently and with many different meanings in various contexts. I encounter this problem quite frequently when the word domain is used in the context of business and software architecture. an area of expertise or knowledge which can be owned by a single team.

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.

Domain-Driven Design is an approach to designing systems, usually software, that emphasises creating a common language between domain experts and system builders. The elements in Simon Wardley’s Strategy cycle are much more usable in my opinion. Software architects might want to see the domain boundaries for 100 microservices.

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.
