Software Architektur im Stream

For 30 years Randy Shoup has helped shape engineering at some of the industry’s most demanding companies - eBay, Google, Stitch Fix and WeWork among them - building highly scalable, distributed systems that serve hundreds of millions of users; today he leads engineering at CircleCI. He is also a long-time speaker and writer on how healthy engineering organizations really work: small multidisciplinary teams, autonomy and accountability, goals over solutions. He joins Ralf D. Müller for an hour on the question our whole field is circling right now: what does generative AI really change about how we build software, and what does it leave exactly where it was? One of Randy’s long-standing lines is to “model the world as it really is, not the way you would like it to be”; we carry that into the AI moment, asking where teams keep building the world they wish they had, and where Randy nods along with the current AI hype versus where he pushes back.

Kevlin Henney - consultant, keynote speaker, and editor of the “97 Things” series - joins Ralf D. Müller to ask where generative AI is actually taking software development. They explore why typing was never the bottleneck, why “vibes are not enough,” the difference between being in, on, or out of the loop — and whether understanding and testing matter more than ever. Less a conversation about AI than about us and how we relate to our tools

The programming language Erlang and its technologies are now 35 years old. They are at the core of many systems that have exceptionally high demands for reliability and scalability. In this episode, Francesco Cesarini talks to Eberhard about the Erlang eco-systems and why it is so great for truly tough technical requirements.

Francesco's books

Eine wichtige Eigenschaft von Software ist die Sicherheit - schließlich werden immer mehr kritische Funktionen durch Software umgesetzt. LLMs bergen völlig neue Sicherheitsherausforderungen. Anders als klassische Systeme agieren sie probabilistisch. Gleichzeitig nutzen immer mehr Systeme LLMs. Auf dem iSAQB Software Architecture Forum sprach Sönke Magnussen mit Eberhard darüber, welche Strategien für eine bessere Sicherheit von LLM-Systemen nützlich ist.
