How much architecture is enough?
Join us for an in our brains session
This Wednesday, after the training course and as a part of Skills Matter's London Agile Month, we'll be running a session entitled "How much architecture is enough?". Although this is billed as "In the Brain of Simon Brown", it's actually going to be an "In *our* Brains" session where a few of us will be facilitating a group discussion.
As for how much architecture is enough, well we've touched upon this question before, particularly with respect to the level of design detail you should put in your architecture document and the need for just enough quality. While I don't think that software development is a relay sport, if you are planning on handing off your architecture, how much do you need to do to ensure that this exercise is successful? And on the subject of sharing architectures, how much should you share and are there more creative ways of efficiently delivering your message?
There's lots to talk about and if this stuff interests you, please sign up on the Skills Matter website. This will be the September London User Group and the session starts at 6:30pm.
