Enabling product-led organizations by aligning architecture with teams
Anyone who wants to develop good and sustainable software products should not start by evaluating technologies or frameworks. The first step should be developing and establishing an architecture that enables autonomous decisions and aligns the architecture to your product-led organization.
In this full-day workshop, we will first briefly introduce the basic ideas, concepts, and ideas behind product-led organizations and then drill down into two major topics: architecture and teams.
In the architectural part, we will show you how to identify good, domain-driven boundaries using a Bounded Context concept (from Domain-driven Design). This process is performed in a collaborative way using a workshop method called EventStorming. A Bounded Context aims at being a boundary for autonomous decisions and should be targeted towards a specific purpose.
This leads us to the second major part: teams. Teams in a product-led organization should be able to work as autonomously as possible so that they can run through quick build-measure-learn cycles. By aligning teams with Bounded Contexts, we will be able to achieve this. The workshop will pick up from that idea and show how you can visualize the relationships of your teams using two techniques: Context Maps from Domain-driven Design and Team Topologies from Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais.
