Hello,
We all have to accelerate to remain competitive,
Yet the “how” varies depending on assessing correctly our starting point:
Taking shortcuts and single-solution to reduce the pressure to deliver faster can show few results in the short-term, but usually fails in the mid-term.
The type of single-solution you may hear are “APIs”, “Microservices”, or other buzzwords that without an inclusion in a broader picture are worthless discussing.
The key challenge is to enable sustainable acceleration of software changes where most are not only frequent, but also reliable and efficient every time.
This article shares a case study of applying a systemic approach to software production through a step by step methodology.
The results of the acceleration journey of a modular monolith are from 3 months to 3 days of deployment, without microservices.

Stay well,
