Agile architecture is fragile architecture, right? Wrong! More and more Agileprojects are seeking architectural roots as they struggle with complexity andscale - and they're seeking lightweight ways to do it. Still seeking? In thisbook we'll help you find your own path. Taking cues from Lean development, wecan help steer your project toward practices with longstanding track records but which, until now, have been awkward to fit into an Agile framework. Up-front architecture? Sure. - You can deliver an architecture as code that compilesand that concretely guides development without bogging it down in a mass of documents and guesses about the implementation. Documentation? Even a whiteboard diagram, or a CRC card, is documentation: the goal isn't to avoid documentation, but to document just the right things in just the right amount. Process? This all works within the frameworks of Scrum, XP, and other Agile approaches.Lean Architecture uses a modern approach to architecture, built on the software wisdom of 5 decades while embracing refreshing new insights of Lean and Agile. Giving a down to earth view of Agile requirements and the often ignored relationship between requirements and architecture, this book goes beyond the fashionable idea of User Stories, and will show you how to employ Use Cases in alightweight, incremental, Agile way which fits perfectly in line with Alistair Cockburn's vision of Use Cases and Agile. In-keeping with Agile culture, this is not a methodology book, but a book which focuses on code, with plenty of code examples. Chapters include: Agile Production in a Nutshell Stakeholder Engagement Problem Definition What the System Is: Lean Architecture What the System Does: Capturing the Service Needs Coding it Up Organizational Issues ScalaImplementation of the DCI Account Example, Account example in Python.
