Helping organizations accelerate software delivery

I provide consulting and training services that help organizations improve their architecture and accelerate software delivery.

I can, for example, review your microservice architecture and identify areas of improvement, or teach a workshop on how to design a microservice architecture.

I also can teach a 1 day workshop Microservices rules: what good looks like that can help you decide whether microservices are a good fit for your application.

Another option, is my Architecting for fast, sustainable flow workshop that will teach you how to architect for fast flow including how to choose between the monolith and microservice architectures.

In November, I’ll be in Berlin and Milan for workshops and talks. If you need workshops or consulting at your company, please don't hesitate to contact me.

From time to time, I encounter organizations who have been struggling with their microservice architecture. Sometimes, the problem is data inconsistencies across services. An update occurs in one service, but a corresponding update doesn’t happen in a related service. It’s as the Order Service fails to notify the Fulfillment Service that the order needs to be shipped. Or, perhaps, the application has poor performance or is brittle with frequent outages. And, the developers are jumping through all kinds of hoops to fix customer problems including manually updating the database. In this article, I’ll describe one of the main reasons why these problems occur and how to prevent them.
