Type Driven Development: Managing the Complexity of Distributed Systems with C++

Speaker: Andreas Reischuck
Audience: Intermediate, Advanced

This talk is intended to give you a new perspective on programming with C++.

The template and type system of C++ can be a key success factor in distributed systems. Unfortunately the current best practices wildly ignore this.

After leveling the playing field with the introduction of strong types and event-driven architectures, the idea of a common C++ types based data schema is presented to you.

This central schema allows us to automate a lot of boilerplate for

• communication protocols* in memory repositories
• storage formats
• complex computation networks
• derived schemes
• view models for user interfaces.

C++17 allows us to achieve this in a way, that keeps the complexity low.
We will conclude with a discussion of advantages and disadvantages.
