We had a good BoF gathering today on Architecture, Engineering and Operations. I offered up an ongoing discussion perhaps even outside the summit for those who are interested. Let me know if your are... there surfaced 3 architecture models that were intriguing: • Event Driven Architecture - you build something new/new product, you publish out to the groups, groups subscribe to that feed include legal, risk, arch, and they provide feedback and guidance out-of-band so as to not "stop gate" the innovation and work • Reverse Matrix - the little "a" architects on all the different teams/product groups gather on some cadence and provide review as a group (the architects representing their groups to this larger body of "elders") - still may be gated but at least it is represented • Agile Architecture - as part of the agile ceremony, you have the most senior level engineers/arch join and provide realtime feedback on arch decisions, is this a good direction for us as a group, and the changes happening in-line with the sprint, etc., in real time Would be good to continue the discussion on those and extend that on to Engineering and Operations.

ahhh shame I missed this!! Architecture has huge impact potentially on how you productise your organisation "reverse conway maneouver!"
