JAX London 2010: Dan North on Irresponsible architectures
Irresponsible architectures
Since the very first days of software we have been developing strategies to support ever bigger and more complex application requirements. We replaced standalone apps with client/server, and hierarchical data with the relational model. We took servers and clustered them. We started replicating databases across multiple instances. During this time we developed responsible strategies such as tell-don't-ask, data encapsulation and isolation levels, and we learned to avoid high-cost, irresponsible techniques like polling or dirty reads. The problem is, all our responsible architectural wisdom seems to be failing us in the age of multicore CPUs with their built-in inconsistency, dumb key-value stores, cloud computing and the web - itself optimised for polling. In this talk, Dan suggests that perhaps we need to consider some irresponsible architectural styles to take advantage of this new era.
