Good Enough Architecture

Explore the concept of "Good Enough" architecture in this 42-minute conference talk from GOTO Berlin 2019. Delve into ways to determine if development efforts are overly focused or lacking in architectural considerations. Examine real-world examples that inspire both admiration and caution, and discover practical strategies to achieve a balanced approach in your own projects. Learn about scaling dimensions, quality attributes, and common pitfalls like non-extensible extensibility and the Entity Service Panda Pattern. Investigate topics such as microservices, Netflix architecture, development processes, and modeling challenges. Gain insights on decoupling, self-contained systems, and macro architecture. Understand the importance of smart endpoints and message brokers in system design. Walk away with valuable takeaways on managing conflicts and facilitating architectural evolution in software development.
