What is the Architecture Advice Process and How to Use It

A highly enthusiastic, self-starting and responsible Tech Principal; Andrew specialises in Java / JVM technologies, agile delivery, build tools and automation, and domain driven design. Andrew is also an author and trainer for O’Reilly. They've written one book about facilitating software architecture and one chapter about implementing the Accelerate/DORA four key metrics. They also run regular online training sessions in Domain-Drive Design (First Steps) and Architecture Decision Making by Example. Andrew is experienced across the software development lifecycle and in many sectors including government, banking, and eCommerce. What motivates them is the production of large-scale software solutions, fulfilling complex client requirements. They understand that people, tooling, architecture and process all have key roles to play in achieving this. Andrew has a passion for open source software and its communities. They have been interested in and involved with OSS to a greater or lesser extent since their career began; as a user, contributor, expert group member, or paid advocate. Finally, Andrew enjoys sharing their experience as much as possible. This sharing is not only seen in their formal consulting engagements, but also informally through mentoring, blog posts, conferences (speaking and organising), and open sourcing their code.
