Many years ago, as a young architect, Matthias used to have debates with colleagues about what whether a particular architecture was “good” or “bad”. It was mostly a matter of taste and personal preferences, and it went until sunset without any real result.

You can spend hours debating about architectural taste, but: Do we have time for that? Nope.

Matthias thinks that every architect needs a clear way to deduce their software architecture from a system’s goals, its context, and the qualities(pl.) required.

In this session, we’ll find the shortest path from what is known to what is yet unknown: our desired target architecture.
