In this new world speed wins. Organisations can no longer afford ignoring agility in IT, and getting to production faster becomes a competitive advantage.
Delivering smaller batches in a faster way has been central to the Agile methodology being adopted in many companies, but one can only go as fast as the architecture allows. When we really want to achieve speed in delivering, the architecture has to match the methodology.
Smaller batches of independent work reflects through microservices, an architectural style which isolates functionality into bounded contexts, independently deployable with clear boundaries.
But as always, any architecture has downsides which need to be addressed. Luckily high performing organisations such as Netflix have released open source components to deal with this complexity. Join this talk to learn about what microservices are all about, and how it can help your organisation buckle up and outperform its competitors.
