Either Have Taste or Have a Software Architecture – Not Both!

This SkillsCast is currently only available to registered attendees of iSAQB Software Architecture Gathering — Digital 2022

It will be freely available to all Skills Matter members once the iSAQB Software Architecture Gathering — Digital 2022 early-access window expires on November 16, 2023.

Many years ago, as a young architect, Matthias used to have debates with colleagues about what whether a particular architecture was "good" or "bad". It was mostly a matter of taste and personal preferences, and it went until sunset without any real result. You can spend hours debating about architectural taste, but: Do we have time for that? Nope. Matthias thinks that every architect needs a clear way to deduce their software architecture from a system's goals, its context, and the qualities(pl.) required. In this session, we'll find the shortest path from what is known to what is yet unknown: our desired target architecture. Prerequisites: - The session will have a mixture of teaching and short exercises on a Miro board. Please make sure you use Miro's stand-alone client and an already existing Miro account to get up to speed quickly.
