The Reality of Building & Deploying Software Solutions

This episode features an interview with Joe Cerasani, a senior solution architect and development lead. Our discussion breaks down a topic that most business professionals and even IT professionals see as a black box. Topics include the ideal team setup, the role of business, data, and related architecture perspectives in software service design and development, and best practices that support the viability and scalability of the deployed solutions. A key topic involves the importance of event-driven, state-based solutions and the value of the state machine as a key component of these solutions. The discussion also covers how in-house solutions can serve as a superior approach when compared to vendor constrained approaches.
