The Software Industry's Evolution, Complex Architecture & Problem-Solving At Scale | Michael Nygard In The Engineering Room Ep. 35
Join Dave Farley and Michael Nygard, former Chief Scientist at Sabre and current leader in Global Platforms at Nubank, for an illuminating discussion on modern software architecture and data systems. They explore how data mesh solutions enable incremental problem-solving at scale, and why traditional software engineering principles like modularity and separation of concerns remain crucial even as our systems evolve.Nygard shares insights from managing 300,000 datasets at Nubank, explaining how they're tackling the challenges of ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) generation, schema management, and the complex interplay between operational and analytical worlds. Drawing from decades of experience, they examine the industry's evolution, from the simplicity of early systems to today's intricate architectures, offering valuable perspectives on managing growing complexity while maintaining system quality.---------Thanks to Goto for hosting this chat at their conference in Copenhagen.
