What is "Conway's Law," and what implication does it have for software architecture and team structure?
Correct! Well done.
Incorrect.
The correct answer is A) Conway's Law states that organizations design systems mirroring their own communication structure; team boundaries can shape software architecture, so teams should be organized to match desired architectural boundaries (e.g. microservices)
Correct Answer
Conway's Law states that organizations design systems mirroring their own communication structure; team boundaries can shape software architecture, so teams should be organized to match desired architectural boundaries (e.g. microservices)
This insight underlies approaches like the "Inverse Conway Maneuver," where organizations deliberately restructure teams to encourage a desired architecture (e.g., creating small, autonomous teams to encourage microservices boundaries).
