Software Architecture Superstream: Software Architecture Fundamentals

Sponsored by circleci and vFunction

Developers have no single—or clearly defined—path to becoming a software architect. But these sessions will give you a solid grasp of the fundamentals, preparing you to implement the strategies that will help your organization increase performance, reduce costs, manage complexity, build in resilience and scalability, and speed time to market. Whether you're a senior-level developer who wants to make the move to architect, an "accidental architect" who makes long-term decisions but lacks the title, or a practicing software architect who wants to hone your skills, these sessions provide the insight, advice, and essential knowledge you need to up your game.
