In this session, Thomas Pierrain and Bruno Boucard explored the Functional Core, Imperative Shell pattern as an alternative to Hexagonal Architecture for protecting domain code. The recording includes a live-coding demo and a debate on the nature of Hexagonal Architecture.

More self-promotion, but with good intentions: The early-bird price ends soon!
In March 2026 I’m doing my half-day “intro dive” workshop on event-driven architecture again, including a small Java/Kafka/Spring hands-on. If you’re curious about EDA or want to sharpen your toolbox, join us!
On-site in Munich, in German 🇩🇪.

🔐 Security ist kein Last-Minute-Feature.
Wer #SecurityByDesign früh umsetzt, verhindert teure Fixes und Risiken wie im Fall von Subaru – verursacht durch eine Webapplikation mit schwacher Sicherheitsarchitektur.
In seiner aktuellen Kolumne «Schlicht und einfach» zeigt @madmas, wie Shift Left und #DevSecOps helfen, #Security als durchgehende Verantwortung früh im Entwicklungsprozess zu verankern:

Fish Bowl “Software Architecture – Is It About Human Intelligence or Artificial Intelligence?”
Microservices, Kafka, sharding, event sourcing... these are the words of the gods, the hallmarks of a real senior engineer, right? https://hackernoon.com/the-system-design-paradox-why-your-principal-engineer-asks-for-less-not-more #softwarearchitecture
Facade Pattern: Simplify Your System's Front Door #shorts: A facade acts as a single front-facing interface that shields clients from complex internal systems. By directing all consumer requests through this facade, managing system upgrades and tracking consumer access becomes streamlined. #facade #systemdesign #softwarearchitecture https://www.youtube.com/shorts/M790Wyya0To

'Simple is better than Complex'
I did a huge redesign on my #Django Performance testing library -
https://github.com/smattymatty/Django-Mercury-Performance-Testing
Now it's dead simple:
1. Import `monitor`
2. Use it as a context manager in your tests
3. Get helpful failure messages
4, use `.explain()` to understand your system, even when passing! (pic 2)
This should catch any accidental N+1s or performance-impacting bugs from slipping through the CI/CD before deployment.

Software survives by being easy to replace.
This may sound counterintuitive, but if there’s one thing we know, it’s that things change. Technology evolves. Requirements shift. Sooner or later your system, or parts of it, will be replaced. Often sooner than you think.
My latest blog post discusses some helpful guidelines.

#SoftwareArchitects constantly navigate the tensions between Ideal & Pragmatic, Innovation & Stability, Speed & Safety.
This #InfoQ eMag offers perspectives to help you see your own challenges more clearly, along with patterns others have used successfully.
Most importantly, it’s a reminder that the best architectures emerge when we stop pretending technology exists separately from the humans who build & use it.
