Talks:

"Taming the Monolith - Are Microservices just an Implementation Detail?" by Dennis Traub

Abstract
Domain-Driven Design changed the way we reason about large software systems. Modern practices, tools and technologies like continuous delivery, NoSQL, and cloud-based virtualization allow the creation of fine-grained systems to solve the specific problems at hand. Having DDD in mind and technical expertise at our hands, with microservice architectures we can build complex systems that reflect our businesses' complex realities and are easy to change at the same time. This talk will show what DDD and microservice architectures have in common and how you can use both to create software systems that fit your domain.

"Microservices: Awesome, as long as they are neither ‘micro’ nor ‘services" by Stefan Tilkov

Abstract

The concept of a microservices architecture hit the community with tremendous force, and immediately struck a nerve. But the name is unfortunate – some of the connotations it carries are not at all necessary to reap the benefits of this approach. In this talk, we will discuss the forces that are independent from the size and the kind of interface offered, and see how they can be applied to various different scenarios.
