In this session, we will discuss the Great Simplification Architecture, instead of creating abstract towers of babel, we will see how we can create agile, maintainable and easy to work with architectures and systems that allow you to just go in and start working, rather than spend a lot of time an effort hammering everything in sight, looking for the nail that the architecture diagram’s page 239 says must be there.
We will discuss layers reduction, useful testing strategies as well as cover some of the horrors that hide beneath the guise of “patterns”, such as the repository and service monsters.
