2021-10-31 Sunday - Architecture Design Question: What Are You Optimizing For?

 

I enjoyed reading Chris Richardson's recent blog post, re: His iSAQB 2021 keynote ("iSAQB keynote - Modular monoliths and microservices: architectural patterns for rapid, reliable, frequent and sustainable development") - note, his presentation slides are in his blog post)

I posted a reply to his LinkedIn post:

Chris Richardson an elegant and concise illustration and overview. Very *crisp*.

A question I use when having design discussions/reviews: "What are we trying to optimize for?"

Some choices are consciously made - although, more often, they may simply be unconscious choices (or, implicit biases) - leading to an implicit optimization goal (that may not be aligned with intent, business requirements, or strategy).
