The document discusses embracing an architecture with no boundaries or requirements when planning for the unplannable. It advocates continuous delivery and autonomous, loosely coupled services. It also recommends embracing platforms, open APIs, and open data to allow for opportunism and serendipity rather than assumed predictability. The focus should be on the ability to change and unleashing enthusiasm through an open source mindset.

1. NO ARCHITECTURE
The art of zero boundaries when
planning for the the unplannable

2. Towards #ZeroDay
Now goes for attacks, but will expand

3. But who’s setting the pace?
The slowest component??!?

4. So pace layering it is, then

5. Continuous Delivery,
anyone?

6. #NoRequirements

7. Requirements?
If I had asked people what they wanted,
they would have said faster horses.
- Henry Ford

8. NO Requirements

9. Open (for)
Innovation

10. Who’s solving your problems?

11. Who’s solving your problems?

12. Innovation portals

13. Open Data

14. Open Data
Tågtavlan
Tåg.info
Traffikverkets basdata

15. Open Data
Tågtavlan
Tåg.info
Traffikverkets basdata

16. Call for a
New Mindset

17. 5 year (release) plan ?
No more!

18. Dual-speed / Bi-modal IT
(or Quarto-modal…)
- Decouple market facing IT from backend IT timewise
- Plan for the very different levels of velocity
Requirements synchronisation?
Release & rollout synchronisation?
The problem lies in synchronisation of lifecycles
But don’t make you Legacy systems dull!

19. Platform thinking
- Use platforms – let someone else integrate & innovate
- Create platforms – to allow for someone else to
innovate
- Enable future solutions without knowing what will be
requested

20. Autonomous services
Create agnostic & autonomous services
Should act as Lego bricks
Lego didn’t ask the kids what model
they’d build!

21. Don’t allow services to know anything
(but the APIs)
- Separate components
- Separate lifecycles
Loose coupling paw rihk-titt
Autonomous services

22. Go from
Deducted planning
to
Allowing opportunism
Changed mindset

23. OpenAPI & Open Data Lakes
- Don’t ask for requirements!
- Provide what could be needed
- Create Integrations & BI with a NoRequirements thought
- Darwinistic API Economy
- Survival of the fittest API

24. Massively distributed databases ≠ RDBMS
Dynamic scaling, incl. geo scaling
PaaS – who wants to deal with servers?
Containers and auto-provisioning
Design for cloud

25. Go from
Assumed predictability
to
Creating serendipity
Changed mindset

26. Go from
Transformation programmes
to
Transformation Platforms
Changed mindset

27. Focus on
Ability to change
Don’t worry (too much) about the
target state
Changed mindset

28. The semantic web is dead,
long live the semantic web
JSON, Rest, etc provides a
practical implementation
Semantic web

29. Would you dare to cool?
or
How do you unleash enthusiasm?
#OpenSource mindset

31. NO Business and IT

32. NO Truth

33. NO Experience

34. NO Keyboard
NO UI
NO Process
NO Infrastructure (or Invisible Infostructure)
NO ...

35. Summing up
Don’t plan for the unplannable
Embrace #NoRequirements
Embrace platforms
Embrace OpenAPI
Build on autonomous services
Complicated problems require simple solutions
