Explore the philosophical underpinnings of software architecture in this 52-minute conference talk delivered by Barry O'Reilly at NDC London. Delve into the fundamental beliefs that shape everyday architectural practices in software development. Rather than focusing on frameworks and methodologies, discover why professionals think the way they do, the sources of disagreement among practitioners, and the limitations of traditional Computer Science education. This thought-provoking session addresses essential questions about identity in the software architecture profession, examining behavioral patterns and the possibility for change. The talk offers a deeper perspective on architectural thinking that goes beyond technical discussions to explore the philosophical foundations that influence decision-making in software design.
