Large software projects cannot be built without some amount of analysis and design. But not all parts of the system require the same amount of design. Some may not require any upfront design at all. Others require a few minutes of architecture discussion; some require weeks of analysis, documents and review. A balance is necessary: too much design and you're delaying the project; too little and you will add technical debt which you'll have to pay in future rewrites and painful maintaining.
How do we decide when design is needed and how much of it is needed? How do other Agile projects do it?
In this talk I discuss what the Agile literature has to say about architecture and how we can answer this question.

Selenium - A Trending Automation Testing Toolijtsrd
Selenium is an important testing tool for software quality assurance. In recent days number of websites are increasing rapidly and it becomes essential to test the websites against various quality factors to make sure it meets the expected quality goals. Several companies are spending a lot of bucks for the testing tool while Selenium is available completely free for the performance test. The open source tool is well known for its unlimited capabilities and unlimited reach. Selenium stands out from the crowd in this aspect. Anyone could visit the Selenium website and download the latest version and use it. It is not only an open source but also highly modifiable. Testers could make changes based upon their needs and requirements.

Business is always in a constant state of flux- more so these days, with disruption happening all around. How do you move from your AS IS state to TO BE architecture in your enterprise transformational journey? What mix and match of people, processes and technology will you blend together, and in what proportion, to drive enterprise value to deliver transformational results? TOGAF has a suite of tools that can help architects to chalk out the architectural roadmap for enterprise success. This talk will also focus on how agility is an underlying thread in this framework, and how value is delivered incrementally, making the process robust and
bankable.
Key Takeaways
Exposes the audience to the features of TOGAF which help plug business technology gaps.
How TOGAF has agility at its core to drive transformational results.
Why it is a good skill and knowledge for a seasoned IT professional to have in their kitty.
Smart Business Design In The Age of The Internet of ThingsHarbor Research
Are The Blind Leading The Vision-Impaired?
As networks have invaded the “physical” world, designers and engineers are seeing the growing values that come from communications within and between sensors and machines. Electronic, mechanical and other related subsystems that used to have unique interfaces and components are now becoming standardized. Efficient support of products and equipment is only the first benefit of this trend.
The convergence of collaborative systems and machine communications will enable entirely new modes of services delivery and customer interactions. This implies a total paradigm shift. The depth of this shift has begun to suggest itself, but it is by no means accomplished.
The implications are enormous. No product development organization will be able to ignore these forces, nor will their suppliers. Product and service design will increasingly be influenced by the use of common components and subsystems. Vertically defined, stand-alone product and application markets will become part of a larger “horizontal” set of standards for hardware, software and communications.
As it becomes easier and easier to design and develop smart systems, competitive differentiation will shift away from unique, vertically focused product features. The new focus will be on how the product is actually used -- how it fosters interactions between and among users in a networked context. All of these trends lead us to the simple question...

Optimize Customer Experiences with Design ThinkingJared Hill
If you are looking to generate engaging digital experiences but are unsure where to begin, leveraging the knowledge within your organization is a good starting point. However, information is typically dispersed across the company in silos. Different business units often have their own vernacular. Design thinking provides a common language. It’s a customer-centric approach to problem solving that is both creative and practical.
Industry leaders have been using design thinking methodology to work with cross-functional and multidisciplinary teams to create innovative customer journeys. Learn how in our recorded webinar, Optimize Customer Experiences with Design Thinking.
You will learn:
• Why leverage design thinking
• How to successfully lead a remote workshop

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

10 THINGS
Function driven – the great fear keeping us from agile adoption – but also a hint of reality
Resilient software design in a nutshell, Uwe Friedrichsen (codecentric AG) – Software Architecture Conference – London, 18. October 2017
Walk through architect ownership and handoff analysis. The architect is responsible from goal to measure where the traditional IT team is responsible from requirements to delivery test. However the value is generated after usage. That means while IT is throwing parties after deployment the project is at its most expensive and least used for the company. Agile and DevOps attempt to address this specifically with team product owners but the product owners are not technical enough. The team if it stays with its solution still needs the architect involved deeply.
