agile architecting

The whole IT world "is" / claims to be / wants to be agile today, which reminds me of the days when the hype was about multimedia ... every CD out on the market was multimedia.

But actually this title has quite some substance if you watch this presentation The evolving Guardian.co.uk architecture. A presentation worth watching from which I would extract these ideas:
  • architects, don't underestimate developers when tech issues must be solved !
  • having a parallel platform team to deal with non-business, purely technical stuff
  • new architecture optimizations and improvements being much later needed than estimated
