Vlad Khononov – "Balancing Coupling in Software Design" | Code Europe 2023 Tech Festival
"Cost of change is proportional to the distance between components" Vlad Khononov makes a case for coupling and its use in designing systems at the Code Europe 2023 Tech Festival.
"We often treat coupling as the necessary evil. Hence, we aim to break systems into the smallest services possible, in the quest of decoupling everything. But what results are we getting by following this reasoning? — Instead of the promised land of evolvable systems, many such “decouple everything” endeavours lead straight into the chains of distributed monoliths. Can we do better? What if there is a better way to handle coupling in distributed systems? Or even, what if instead of fighting coupling, we can use it as a heuristic for designing systems that are actually evolvable and maintainable? That’s exactly what you will learn in this session: what coupling is, and how you can use it as a design tool."
