Dan North describes a model for thinking about the age of code and argues for replaceability as a first class concern. He also discovers that if one optimizes for both replaceability and consistency he can end up with something that looks a lot like microservices. Filmed at qconlondon.com. Dan North uses his deep technical and organisational knowledge to help CIOs, business and software teams to deliver quickly and successfully. He puts people first and finds simple, pragmatic solutions to business and technical problems, often using Lean and Agile techniques.

Do you need service meshes in your tech stack? This on-line guide aims to answer pertinent questions for software architects and technical leaders, such as: what is a service mesh?, do I need a service mesh?, how do I evaluate the different service mesh offerings? In software architecture, a service mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer for facilitating service-to-service communications between microservices, often using a sidecar proxy.

The standard Salesforce Approval process can be limiting in many ways, especially in complex scenarios. What if there was a way to implement very flexible approvals where one can use Apex code to make data updates in unrelated records, dynamically generate next steps details, and compute assignees on the fly? And still use UI-based configurations to implement concrete approval processes. In this session, we will share ideas behind such a solution and show a few lines of code to get you started.

How to differentiate Sales Cloud and CPQ on first glance might be tricky if you do not know where to look and what to look at. You will know :-) Managing the sales process within Salesforce is a common use case that can be managed with standart Sales Cloud. If you want to do entire quoting process you will find out Salesforce CPQ solution exists. What is then the difference if both can handle selling products? You will see comparison of 10 different features, which Sales Cloud and Salesforce CPQ handle differently. Simple question you will always remember if you should consider using Salesforce CPQ will be a cherry on top.

I'm excited to share my latest predictions on how AI, robotics, and other technological advancements will reshape industries in the coming years. The slides explore the exponential growth of computational power, the future of AI and robotics, and their profound impact on various sectors. Why this matters: The success of new products and investments hinges on precise timing and foresight into emerging categories. This deck equips founders, VCs, and industry leaders with insights to align future products with upcoming tech developments. These insights enhance the ability to forecast industry trends, improve market timing, and predict competitor actions. Highlights: ▪ Exponential Growth in Compute: How $1000 will soon buy the computational power of a human brain ▪ Scaling of AI Models: The journey towards beyond human-scale models and intelligent edge computing ▪ Transformative Technologies: From advanced robotics and brain interfaces to automated healthcare and beyond ▪ Future of Work: How automation will redefine jobs and economic structures by 2040 With so many predictions presented here, some will inevitably be wrong or mistimed, especially with potential external disruptions. For instance, a conflict in Taiwan could severely impact global semiconductor production, affecting compute costs and related advancements. Nonetheless, these slides are intended to guide intuition on future technological trends.

Ever caught yourself nodding along when someone mentions "delivering value" in Agile, but secretly wondering what the heck they actually mean? You're not alone! Join us for an eye-opening session where we'll strip away the buzzwords and dive into the heart of Agile—value delivery. But what is "value"? Is it a mythical unicorn in the world of software development, or is there more to this overused term? This isn't going to be a sit-and-get lecture. We're talking about a face-to-face, interactive meetup where YOU play a crucial role. Come along to: Define It: What does "value" really mean? We’ll build a definition that’s not just words, but a compass for your Agile journey. Contextualise It: Discover what value means specifically to you, your team, your company, and your industry. Because one size does not fit all. Deliver It: Share strategies and gather new ones for uncovering and delivering true value—no more shooting in the dark!

61. Microservices can be a Replaceable Component Architecture

62. Microservices can be a Replaceable Component Architecture - if you choose to optimise for replaceability and consistency 

63. Microservices can be a Replaceable Component Architecture - if you choose to optimise for replaceability and consistency  - smaller is not necessarily better 

64. Microservices can be a Replaceable Component Architecture - if you choose to optimise for replaceability and consistency  - smaller is not necessarily better  - more replaceable is better
