Software architecture often gets overlooked. Unfortunately, at many companies there is a culture where software architecture is not fully embraced by the entire team. There might even be some parallels between software architecture and UX architecture.
This week we talk with Brian Friedman, an experienced Architect and polyglot Engineer with a passion for microservices solutions, about his ideas on life and software.
Topics:
• 02:15 – Don’t get Silicon Valleyed!
• 10:44 – Not an architecture, but a “notional end state”
• 13:04 – “Software Architects should be tied to their UX Architect” – Juval Löwy
• 14:30 – Make it “thump”
• 16:09 – Product & Design teams should include engineering teams in discovery
• 18:19 – Super Empowered Engineers
• 20:54 – You don’t build the first 5 floors of a skyscraper out of wood.
• 26:32 – Have a plan that can change
• 28:00 – It comes down to trust
• 35:19 – If there’s no plan, nothing of value will get built
• 37:48 – “In a well designed system complexity is neither created nor destroyed, it’s distributed” – Juval Löwy
