Many systems start with diagrams of boxes and arrows and the promise of high consistency and low coupling. The boxes are supposed to be loosely coupled components, but each arrow often results in a highly coupled dependency at runtime. What if we can do something about it… during deployment?

In this session, we’ll identify design decisions that influence your system’s behavior both at design-time and run-time. We’ll observe how changing your design during deployment gives you many opportunities for making trade-offs to improve function and performance and gives you the information you need to shape your system architecture.
