I’m an architect, and I think a lot about architecture. Mostly I think about how irrelevant architecture is if it doesn’t get shipped to production. I worry a lot too. I worry about how to help all the teams I’m supposed to be helping, without slowing them down, getting in their way, or making their lives harder rather than easier.
Traditional (i.e. hands-off, blessed-few) approaches to architecture rarely (if ever) work. But in the world of microservices, autonomous teams, and continuous delivery, architecture is more important than ever. Is there an alternative?
This session will introduce you to a mindset and an associated set of practices which do away with the traditional idea of “Architects” while bringing the practice of “Architecture” to the fore. I’ll explain how everyone can become an architect, without things reducing to chaos (though there might well be a healthy dose of anarchy).

The future is not what it used to be. From the end of the 19th century, through the dawn of the Atomic Age and past the rush of the Space Race, the future was painted as a place of possibility and optimism. But now? Not so much. Our view of the future lies somewhere between neutral and gloomy. Why the change? That question has come up almost every time our Program Committee has met. Back in the good all days the future was always bright. Innovation and craftsmanship was blooming. Failure not a topic.
So, if the future is not what it used to be, what is it? In this keynote, PC members Kevlin Henney and James Lewis will look at the future seen through the eyes of the past.
