Architecture and organization (Abstractions II version)Kevin Goldsmith
Drawing on real-life examples from Avvo, Spotify, Adobe and Microsoft, Kevin Goldsmith explores why you should consider changing your organization to improve your architecture and discusses the successes and failures he’s seen around the interplay of organizational models and software architectures. Kevin often visits companies, where he hears about how they struggle to break up monolithic applications or move to a continuous deployment pipeline. Oftentimes, the organizational structure is clearly making their problems harder but is seen as something that can’t be changed. Kevin relates his own journey to a more experimental organizational style. As a developer at Microsoft, Kevin worked in a rigid hierarchy organized around functional areas. The communication flows within the organization dictated the way it structured its libraries and dependencies. This is the essence of Conway’s law. In this case, the company hierarchy and the architecture it produced was often suboptimal for the problem Kevin and his team were solving, but it was the architectural path of least resistance. When Kevin moved to Adobe and became a senior manager, he started to build his organization in the traditional way. Adobe wanted to create a more fluid and agile architecture for its products, but the company struggled to realize these goals because it was it was too hard to work across teams and reporting lines. The company finally started to make some progress as the organization became more fluid and loosely coupled. Kevin then went to Spotify, which had realized this problem early on and restructured its organization in a way that supported the architectural model that it wanted to build. As a vice president of engineering, Kevin was able to see firsthand how the organizational model simplified the architectural challenges that other companies struggled with while also introducing difficulties that other companies were easily able to overcome. When Kevin joined Avvo as its CTO, the company had the same organization and architectural challenges as many other startups, but rather than attack them only from an architectural angle, Avvo experimented with architecture and organization together to improve its legacy systems and help build new ones faster and with higher quality.

Over the years, application security (appsec) has made progress, but it has also made some considerable mis-steps. Appsec focuses almost solely on developer awareness and secure development training as remediation. This isn’t sustainable and arguably does little good. There is a better way, but we have to separate ourselves from the core assumptions we have made that got us here.

Conway's law revisited - Architectures for an effective ITUwe Friedrichsen
This session is sort of a journey from the change drivers that affect today's IT to ways to respond to them in the architecture.
It starts with the business and technological drivers that force IT into change. After briefly sketching the big picture for IT as a whole, it focuses on the drivers and requirements that can be derived for architecture from the IT change drivers.
After carving out the architectural requirements, those are mapped to some trending topics. Based on the mapping results, it becomes obvious that there is no silver bullet (we all know that but this doesn't keep us from hoping that there still is one).
It is required to combine some ideas and concepts to a joint architectural style that becomes more than just the sum of its parts - and that's the last part of the story: Describing an architectural style that helps addressing the IT change drivers shown in the first part.
As a side note, at the end an idea is shown how EAM could fit into the picture laid out by the slides.
As always, many details are only on the voice track - and as always, sorry about that! But I hope that the slides still contain some ideas which are valuable for you.
Cloud native applications are popular these days. They promise superior reliability and almost arbitrary scalability. They follow three key principles: they are built and composed as microservices. They are packaged and distributed in containers. The containers are executed dynamically in the cloud. But which technology is best to build this kind of application? This talk will be your guidebook.
In this hands-on session, we will briefly introduce the core concepts and some key technologies of the cloud native stack and then show how to build, package, compose and orchestrate a cloud native microservice application on top of a cluster operating system such as Kubernetes. To make this session even more entertaining we will be using off-the-shelf MIDI controllers to visualize the concepts and to remote control a Kubernetes cluster.

Docker Bday #5, SF Edition: Introduction to DockerDocker, Inc.
In celebration of Docker's 5th birthday in March, user groups all around the world hosted birthday events with an introduction to Docker presentation and hands-on-labs. We invited Docker users to recognize where they were on their Docker journey and the goal was to help them take the next step of their journey with the help of mentors. This presentation was done at the beginning of the events (this one is from the San Francisco event in HQ) and gives a run down of the birthday event series, Docker's momentum, a basic explanation of containers, the benefits of using the Docker platform, Docker + Kubernetes and more.
DevOps represents cultural change. Whether it’s the change of resistant engineers that don’t want to be on-call or the change of Operations teams to have more empathy towards their counterparts writing code, to the willingness of executives to embrace a culture of automation, measurement and sharing. Organizations must overcome the culture war to be able to approach the agility and productivity that organizations following a DevOps model gain. The faster they can get there, the faster these organizations can take the competitive edge away from traditional enterprises.

2019-10-15 - the future of cloud-native Java - Bert ErtmanApeldoorn JUG
Java is an open language. Every developer or organization can contribute to its open source components (libraries & frameworks) and even to the language specifications itself. This way, the community helps to improve the language continuously. While this gives developers a lot of freedom, it makes it hard to standardize. The software architecture of a Java application starts with its runtime (that is the combination of frameworks, specifications and application server). For years, monolitic JEE applications were hosted on heavy application servers. But is this platform the best option for fast, flexible and controlled delivery of business value embedded in cloud native-applications running on both IAAS-platforms and CAAS-containers? In this session Java-champion Bert Ertman will give his view.

A pattern language for microservices - June 2021 Chris Richardson
The microservice architecture is growing in popularity. It is an architectural style that structures an application as a set of loosely coupled services that are organized around business capabilities. Its goal is to enable the continuous delivery of large, complex applications. However, the microservice architecture is not a silver bullet and it has some significant drawbacks.
The goal of the microservices pattern language is to enable software developers to apply the microservice architecture effectively. It is a collection of patterns that solve architecture, design, development and operational problems. In this talk, I’ll provide an overview of the microservice architecture and describe the motivations for the pattern language. You will learn about the key patterns in the pattern language.

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

5m mark:
Serving clients across the world, deploying in airports, writing code.
To me, this is important.
This is about allowing us to do what we love the most – build things, tinker, experiment, learn
It’s about reducing conflict, making the places we work more exciting and enjoyable places to work out.
Cannot escape the nerves that I've missed something out because there is no code, and I am not the only one!!
- Before we talk about what DevOps is, why we should care, and if we do, what we do about it, it is important to understand where it has come from.
The way we build has changed dramatically.
Traditional, building software was like classical architecture
Very expensive materials, very expensive construction
Known use case, build perfectly, rarely change.
Build upon a rickety structure, software made of a foundation which was never designed to be adapted
A lot more change is happening
Nowadays, requirements of users are much more flexible
Technology is cheaper & faster, change is much more common
Now more like city planning: evolutionary architecture
Hosting, Zoning, Infrastructure, Traffic, Capacity
In the world of software this might be about designing small, modular components which we can swap in and out, or plugin like systems, or APIs which we can have multiple versions of
In architecture, this might be containers, service orientation etc etc

Complicated systems
Deterministic and predictable, laws are applicable again and again, learn to get *very* good at designing a bridge
Role defining – setting job and task descriptions
Decision making – find the ‘best’ choice
Tight structuring – use chain of command and prioritise or limit simple actions
Knowing – decide and tell others what to do
Staying the course – align and maintain focus
Complex adaptive systems
Many interacting parts, which might be deterministic but chaotic, unexpected results, difficult to predict.
Relationship building – working with patterns of interaction
Sense making – collective interpretation
Loose coupling – support communities of practice and add more degrees of freedom
Learning – act/learn/plan at the same time
Notice emergent directions – building on what works

We enter a feedback loop
We do whatever we can to build faster, better tech, better process, whatever

This bullshit slows you down. It’s not fun. And in an organization where you are not learning, you are moving backwards.
You can tell how happy I am by how much of my day I am in tmux.
Healthy work environment.
Familiarise yourself with this. Read the books. Learn about lean. Come to conferences. Talk to people. Blog about it.
There’s a lot of stuff in devops, getting it to work is not easy, learn about how other people have done it, and learn the skills to do it yourself.

- When someone objects to what you are doing, try to understand why
This change takes a while to happen, as you go through it, peoples roles will change, peoples goals will change
This is a cultural change
- Story: talking to a colleague who was paying to do his own exam
Think about the ‘human case’, when things fall back to human beings
