Presentation: When Microservices Meet Real-World Projects

Track: Microservices & Modern Architecture / Time: Thursday 15:50 - 16:40 / Location: Hall 1

As a consultant, Alexander Heusingfeld has seen both sides of the coin: on the one hand, he gets to know the leading-edge technologies that have just become ready for the market. On the other hand, there are customers with conservative operation teams, legacy systems, and strict data security regulations.
 
In this session, he shares some learnings from consulting gigs, what business domain thinking meant, and why the DevOps mindset can change the team spirit. He explains some approaches he used to iteratively modernize legacy systems into multiple self-contained systems, the different levels of architectural decisions to be taken and the impact on a classic organization structure this architectural approach has.
