Featured Keynote

Agile Architecture

Martin Fowler and Molly Dishman

There is a common misconception that architecture is thrown out the window when a team or organization is developing software in an agile fashion, but where does this myth stem from? Surely, there is some truth behind this thinking.

We’ll talk about some of the underlying assumptions that support this belief in order to build a common understanding of what it really means to be developing in an agile fashion. During the second half of this talk, we’ll move from the conceptual thinking into some practical suggestions from our experiences — what we’ve seen that works and highlight some practices to avoid. In the end, the audience will know how to bring architectural thinking into teams to support the higher level goals of application architecture.

Full-Day Workshops

(Registration Required)

Monday, Dec. 7 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM

Scalable Systems

The Cloud is changing the way we build systems. ArchConf will help you navigate the players and build effective scalable solutions.

Tools & Methods

Learn from the Best

ArchConf will bring together many of the industry's best project leaders, developers, authors, and trainers.

Why should I attend ArchConf?

  • 90-minute in-depth sessions.

    Our longer session format, workshops, and multi-part sessions allow speakers to go in-depth and teach the detailed concepts you need to know.

  • Learn about Cloud Architectures that scale up and reduce costs.

    ArchConf will explore different cloud computing architectures and how you can take advantage of them.

  • Learn from the best experts in the field.

    Our speakers are not simply vendor representatives -- they are industry recognized experts. They are published authors, consultants, executives, and open source leaders.

  • Achieve efficiency using the latest techniques.

    Technology changes, it's a fact of life! And while many developers are attracted to the challenge of change, many organizations do a particularly poor job of adapting. ArchConf will explore ways to achieve competitive advantage with new technology.

  • Develop your soft skills.

    Being an architect is a tough job. Not only do you have to have significant technical depth and breadth, but you also need to understand the business domain you are working in. While these aspects are important, there is another perhaps more vital aspect of being an architect - the soft skills.

  • Learn to use Continuous Delivery to develop software faster, with less stress.

    As systems get more complex, it takes longer to deliver customer requirements. To meet customer demands, organizations must embrace automated testing, continuous integration, and continuous delivery.

  • Understand Web Application Security

    Increasingly, the world wide web is more like the wild wild web which is an increasingly hostile environment for web applications. ArchConf will include sessions and workshops focused on web application security.
