Building Evolutionary Architectures - Principles & Practices

Explore principles and practices of evolutionary architecture in this 48-minute conference talk from YOW! 2022. Delve into the concept of adaptable systems that can respond to rapid technological and business changes without predicting the future. Learn about key principles, techniques, and approaches for implementing evolutionary architecture, including evolvability, experimentation, governance, and mechanics. Gain insights from Rebecca Parsons, CTO at Thoughtworks, as she discusses how to create systems that can evolve over time to meet changing needs. Discover the importance of fitness functions, loose coupling, and contract testing in building flexible architectures. Includes a Q&A session and references to recommended books for further study on software architecture and evolutionary design.
