Two shockingly recurring problems (Peter Hruschka und Gernot Starke)
Developing Software architectures is a demanding task that is usually quite rewarding (aka “fun”).
The whole thing would be even better, if somebody told the development team what exact problem they are supposed to solve. In other words: Teams urgently need better requirements as the basis of their development work.
The second recurring issue is legacy, existing systems which are hard to maintain and operate, and carry a heavy load of technical and organizational debt. In other words: These existing systems are in serious need of improvements, to become maintainable and future-proof.
Our brief and fast-paced tutorial summarizes some important and pragmatic approaches that architects and development teams can follow to improve their requirements. In addition, we demonstrate the fundamental techniques and methods for architecture improvement, technology-agnostic and applicable to all kinds of development projects.

How to explain your architecture using arc42
Java User Group (Tirana, Albania), online presentation by Gernot Starke, Dec. 2020
How do you explain your software architecture to fellow developers, management or other stakeholders? arc42 promises „painless documentation“ - and in this talk Dr. Gernot Starke will show you how that works in practice:
Together we’ll have a look at effective usage of the arc42 documentation and communication template. We cover several parts by explaining examples, and discuss how to introduce arc42 into your project.
The Rise, The Ruin and The Rescue
Software Architecture Conference, Berlin 2019
Developers and architects spend most of their time adding features to their products (so-called maintenance) and are often annoyed about the many deficits of these systems: even supposedly simple things are becoming incredibly difficult with these legacy systems, and the time to market is getting worse and worse as business calls for more and more features. It’s rare to find time to reduce technical debt and clean up increasingly messy dependencies.
Gernot Starke explores possibilities to systematically escape legacy hell and reduce technical and other debt in your systems. You’ll learn strategical and tactical improvement approaches you can scale to fit your actual situation. Gernot explains each of the approaches based on a (not very hypothetical) large-scale ecommerce system. You’ll hear about the rise, decline, and rescue of that system.
Hände waschen, Zähne putzen: Vergessene Grundlagen
