Talk Abstracts

Rich Hickey once said programmers know the benefits of everything and the trade offs of nothing…an approach that can lead a project down a path of frustrated developers and unhappy customers.

In this presentation, we will walk through how the cloud impacts are applications and what we can do to successfully move our organizations forward.

As we migrate towards distributed applications, it is more than just our architectures that are changing, so too are the structures of our teams.

Your organization is knee deep in functions and platforms and containers and while the technology is important, we can’t afford to overlook the importance of culture.

This talk will explore the strategies, tools and techniques you can apply as you evolve towards a cloud native future.

There are many good reasons to use a microservices architecture. But there are no free lunches.

Learn how to think strategically, manage stakeholder expectations, and make critical architectural decisions.

New software technology appears every year. Like clockwork, another language, library, pattern, or approach will arrive on the scene with plenty of hype and developer enthusiasm. As someone whose job requires making architectural decisions, you need to evaluate these new technologies with an eye toward the inevitable tradeoffs before deciding if a new framework or language is right for your project.
