Architecting Resilient Systems with CDC, DDD, EDA and Team Topologies

Explore strategic approaches to decoupling legacy mainframes through this 51-minute conference talk that demonstrates how to build resilient systems using Change Data Capture (CDC), Domain-Driven Design (DDD), Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), and Team Topologies. Learn from Sonia Mathew and Jason Roberts as they present their methodology for creating a "system-of-reference" that addresses critical data freshness issues, reduces tight coupling between systems, and empowers engineering teams to work more effectively. Discover practical strategies for overcoming the challenges of monolithic systems, scaling bottlenecks, and organizational silos that commonly plague enterprise environments. Gain insights into how these architectural patterns and organizational principles can be combined to modernize mainframe systems while maintaining system reliability and team autonomy. This presentation is particularly valuable for senior software developers, software architects, and engineering leaders who are responsible for system modernization initiatives and need to balance technical debt reduction with business continuity requirements.
