Join forward-thinking leaders and technologists for a half-day ONLINE training focused on organization dynamics for effective software delivery, with a focus on team boundaries and architecture for fast flow.
Based on the book by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais, Team Topologies: Organizing Business and Technology Teams for Fast Flow" this training explores how to break apart different kinds of monoliths with adequate “fracture planes”.
There is an excessive focus on replacing monoliths with more fine decoupled software design, but what the business really needs is to decouple different works streams so that each of them can move at its own pace. Optimizing software architecture (moving to microservices for example) is the wrong starting point. We need to first identify relevant business domains (using mature techniques like domain-driven design, or lighter approaches such as Independent Service Heuristics), and the different streams of work within them.
A monolith might need breaking down by change cadence, user journeys, user personas, markets/regions, regulatory compliance, or a combination of these “fracture planes”. Without this understanding, the risk of accidental coupling remains high even in “highly decoupled” technical architectures like microservices.
This half-day training highlights all of the above with a balanced set of lectures, examples, lightweight techniques, and exercises in small groups.
The training will start and end at the following local regional times (not a complete list):
08.30-12.30 EDT New York
09.30-13.30 BRT Rio de Janeiro
14.30-18.30 CET Berlin
