SUMMARY

We write software for an uncertain world. From agile development to progressive delivery, we've built software delivery practices around the assumption that we'll build the wrong thing and we'll build it wrong. So we optimize for fast feedback and adjust on the fly. But how do you architect a system if you're not sure what you're building? In this fireside chat, CircleCI CTO Rob Zuber will explore the role of architecture in the face of ambiguity–from identifying the things you do know to designing systems centered around change. With a focus on deeply understanding your domain and your business, this chat will venture into DDD, system evolution, technology choices, and how to put your energy into the most impactful decisions.
