Modern Software Systems : Succeeding at IT in the 21st Century
PRESENTED BY
Brian Sletten
Forward Leaning Software Engineer @ Bosatsu Consulting
In the last 30 years, our industry has been upended by advancements that unlock previously unimaginable capabilities. It still seems like there is far too much failure and not enough success in IT systems though. To be successful in the 21st Century, you will need to understand where we are and where we are going. It is a complex amalgamation of developments in hardware, computer languages, architectures and how we manage information. Very few people understand all of the pieces and how they connect.
In this talk we will cover how technology changes are enabling longer term capture of business value, modernization of legacy systems, resilience in the face of increased mobile user bases, IT sovereignty and distributed, layered, heterogeneous architectures.
