10-minute break
Simple approach to complex domains
We tend to say we work on complex IT solutions, but is it a business domain that brings complexity to the software design, or is it how we think about it? In this short talk, I'll show you how to avoid bringing unnecessary complexity to your software architecture and, most importantly, how to focus on the most essential part of any software solution: Customers and their business needs.
