Here's a taste of the kinds of workshops we've offered in the past:

Leading Application & Architecture Modernization (2024, 2025)

Indu Alagarsamy & Nick Tune

As a Technology leader entrusted with modernizing your systems, you have to deal with hard to evolve legacy systems, inefficient development & excessive costs, poor developer experience, and lottery factor risks. This workshop covers the diverse range of topics that leaders and practitioners need to successfully modernize their systems, from strategy to execution.

Software Design Masterclass (2025)

Eric Evans

In this advanced class, you will join Eric Evans and a small group of fellow DDD practitioners to work on a real-world problem with a domain expert from a complex domain. You will work with the group, led by Eric, to interview the expert, create domain models, and design a solution. Experience how Eric interviews experts, how he approaches knowledge crunching, and what mental tools he uses to find various solutions.

Designing Microservices: Responsibilities, APIs and Collaborations (2024, 2025)

Chris Richardson

When applying the microservice architecture pattern, the most important design decisions do not involve technology choices. Instead, what's critical to your success is correctly identifying services, defining their responsibilities, APIs and collaborations. Through a combination of lectures, discussions, and kata exercises, learn how to distill your application's requirements into a collection of loosely coupled, appropriately-sized services.

EventStorming Masterclass (2017, 2018, 2019, 2024, 2025)

Alberto Brandolini

EventStorming is a workshop format that enables massive learning on complex business domains and promotes collaboration between disciplines and teams. The modeling and visualization techniques are versatile and can be used successfully to discover current or future scenarios or to design solutions collaboratively.
