Everyone is talking about bounded contexts, but nobody can agree on what they are. Are they microservices? Do they contain the UI? Do they exist in the real world? What if bounded contexts are actually an incredibly powerful tool for enabling your entire organisation to go faster?

Microservices usually communicate synchronously, often using REST APIs. There is an alternative way of using events. By adopting an event-based approach for intercommunication between microservices, the microservices applications are naturally responsive (event-driven). This approach enhances the loose coupling nature of microservices because it decouples producers and consumers. Andrew Schofield - Chief Architect, Event Streams at IBM

Today, there are several trends that are forcing application architectures to evolve. Users expect a rich, interactive and dynamic user experience on a wide variety of clients including mobile devices. Applications must be highly scalable, highly available and run on cloud environments. Organizations often want to frequently roll out updates, even multiple times a day. Consequently, it’s no longer adequate to develop simple, monolithic web applications that serve up HTML to desktop browsers.
This site describes a new, alternative architecture: microservices. Applications with a microservice architecture consist of a set of narrowly focused, independently deployable services. Read on to find out more about this approach and its associated trade-offs. A good starting point is the Monolithic Architecture pattern.
Docker is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers, by providing an additional layer of abstraction and automation of operating-system-level virtualization on Linux.[5] Docker uses resource isolation features of the Linux kernel such as cgroups and kernel namespaces to allow independent "containers" to run within a single Linux instance, avoiding the overhead of starting and maintaining virtual machines.

If you’re a CTO or a Lead Developer and you’re planning to design service-oriented architecture, it’s definitely a webinar tailored to your needs. Adrian Zmenda, our Lead Dev, will explain:
- when microservice architecture is a safe bet and what are some good alternatives
- what are the pros and cons of the most popular design patterns (API Gateway, Backend for Frontend and more)
- how to ensure that the communication between services is done right and what to do in case of connection issues
- why we’ve decided to use a monorepo (monolithic repository)
- what we’ve learned from using the remote procedure call framework gRPC
- how to monitor the efficiency of individual services and whole SOA-based systems.
A micro frontend architecture is an approach to developing web applications as a composition of small frontend apps. Instead of writing a large monolith frontend application, the application can be broken down into domain-specific micro frontends, which are self-contained and can be developed and deployed independently. Each micro frontend can be owned by verticalised domain specific teams. Micro frontends do have advantages and disadvantages and they are not suitable in many cases. When micro frontends is a potential solution, make sure to use a domain driven top-down approach, with no big design upfronts. Keep it simple!

Nico Abbatemarco, Researcher at SDA Bocconi School of Management | Team Member at DEVO | Blockchain Author & Researcher
Quando si parla di temi come innovazione e digital transformation si fa spesso l’errore, più o meno volontario, di dare all’apparenza un peso molto maggiore rispetto alla sostanza. Questo è particolarmente vero per quanto riguarda blockchain, dove quasi sempre l’hype prevale sulla realtà. In questo contesto, l’università svolge un ruolo fondamentale nel contribuire a determinare quale è il reale valore aggiunto apportato da una tecnologia del genere. Leonardo De Rossi e Nico Abbatemarco, ricercatori di Information System presso SDA Bocconi, proveranno a fare luce su questo mondo raccontando l’esperienza su Blockchain del DEVO (Digital Enterprise Value Organization) Lab, il laboratorio di ricerca di SDA Bocconi impegnato nell’analisi della trasformazione digitale delle imprese, con particolare enfasi sugli impatti organizzativi ed economici dell’adozione di nuove tecnologie.

In this talk you will learn about Sociotechnical Organisation Design patterns. Patterns for designing teams and the software systems they maintain. You will learn about plays to optimise your organisation design and software architecture for the specific needs of your business, whether your goal is delivery speed, efficiency, user experience, or something else.
Enterprise Cloud Native is the New NormalQAware GmbH
ContainerDays 2019, Hamburg: Talk by Mario-Leander Reimer (@LeanderReimer, Principal Software Architect at QAware)
=== Please download slides if blurred! ===
Abstract: The world of IT and technology is moving faster than ever before. Cloud native technology and application architecture have been influencing and disrupting the software engineering discipline for the past years and there is no end in sight. But according to Gardner we are currently entering the trough of disillusionment. So does this mean we followed the wrong path and that we should turn back? Hell no!!!
Despite of all disbelievers and trolls: cloud native is neither a failure nor a hype anymore! It will become mainstream. We already see widespread adoption at all our customers. Of course there still is a lot of room for improvement. No doubt about that. Technology, methodology, processes, operations, cloud native architecture and software development need to mature even further to become boring and ready for the enterprise. This is software industrialization in its purest form. And our skills and expertise are required to make this happen.

Who Wants to Become an IT Architect-A Look at the Bigger Picture - DigitalXch...Lucas Jellema
Pitch: The movie The Matrix made it clear: The Architect is powerful. How to be(come) and IT architect? What do you do, what do you need to know, is it fun and why? Using real world examples, core principles and useful tools, this session introduces the subtle art of designing and realizing flexible IT architectures. </p><p>Taking a step back to get and create an overview, frequently asking why to get to the real intention, bringing aspects such as cost, scale, time and change and business strategy into the design and bridging the gap between business owners, process managers and technical specialists. One way to define the responsibility of an IT architect. In this session, we will discuss what is expected of the architect and what you need to do for that and what you could use to get it done. How do you get started as an architect, how to grow in that role? We discuss a number of real life architectural challenges and solution design. And discuss a number of architecture principles, patterns, and powers to apply. Never stop programming - but perhaps rise to the architecture challenge too.
Notes: Many IT professionals aspire to become architects. Many architects wonder what it is they have to do. After 27 years in IT I find I have slowly and steadily moved into a role that I can probably use the label architect for, although still with some reluctance. What exactly does that mean - IT architect? While I may not have all answers and the ultimate truth and wisdom, I do have many architectural challenges to discuss and some core principles to share and a number of tips, tricks and tools to recommend that will help anyone get started or grow in a role as architect for software and IT systems. Elements that make an appearance include cloud, agile, DevOps, microservices, persistence, business, powers of persuasion, diagramming, cost, security, software engineering, data.
Outline: - two real world examples (one new business initiative, one running and struggling project) and how to approach them with an architect's mind - core principles to apply , patterns to us, what to unearth (the power question of WHY) - architecture products: what do you deliver as an architect; how do you ensure agility? - how to be effective? bringing your design to life - communication with stakeholders/powers of persuasion, monitoring adherence, being pragmatic but not lose grip; - anecdotal evidence from several small and large product teams - the good and also the ugly (architectural oversights and the consequences)
some specific answers to address - how much technical knowledge and programming skills does an architect require? What other knowledge is required and how to stay on top of your game? how to get going: first steps towards be(com)ing and architect?

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
