Implementing Modern Architecture - Part 2
This training builds on the popular “Implementing Modern Architecture” training by going deeper into key topics and covering those that couldn’t fit into the first training. Over 3 days, participants will acquire tools applicable to their daily work as architects.
We will cover important subjects such as Architecture Modernization, Serverless architecture, versioning and evolution of synchronous and asynchronous APIs, and best practices in documenting your architecture beyond traditional diagrams. The course will also demonstrate how to approach testing complex systems, storing data effectively, and shaping an environment that enables teams to quickly and safely ship code to production. Additionally, we will explore how AI can assist architects in their daily tasks.
Through a series of tasks and discussions, participants will learn how to apply the tools, strategies, and methodologies presented during the training to the products they work on.
