Observations
Extremely agile
(first mover advantage)
Architecture (and code base)
should be able to cope with change

4.
The case for modularity
Modularity is the
ultimate agile tool!
Small, disposable, components
Prevents code rot on the
architectural level
Isolate problems, focus work

5.
Prevent
(tight)
coupling
What we learned about OO design in university :
Promote
cohesion
coupling
cohesion

Right now,
OSGi is the
only option
let’s not
reinvent the
wheel
formodularity?

Provisioning servers
Node
AWS Auto Scaling
1. Start
Load Balancer
Apache ACE
2. register
3. register
4. provision
deployment
package

14.
Provisioning servers
Nodes are completely disposable
Automated cluster recovery
Nodes do not require maintenance
No “big” container
