I’d argue software architecture has never been more healthy.

DDD Europe by all accounts was a resounding success. We’ve replaced older architecture activities like data modeling first with event modeling and Domain-Driven Design.

We’ve learned to embrace monoliths when appropriate and reduce complexity with bounded contexts.

We have phenomenal testing capabilities that didn’t exist 20 years ago.

We have a myriad of data storage tools.

We understand front-end engineering from an information architecture perspective.

We can design detailed architectures in tools like LucidChart very quickly with detailed solution details.

I’ve been at this for 40 years and I’ve never felt better about being a software architect.




You may also just be more competent with 40 years experience?


Even now I’m still learning. That’s the most important lesson.
