Engineering with layers: How to supercharge your digital projects

Digital projects can be complex and messy – sometimes we set out to bake the perfect cake, but the final result doesn't quite turn out the way we'd hoped. So is our agile approach helping us build structure, or just making the recipe harder to follow?

This session will explore how to identify the right approach for your projects, with hints and tips to help you run them more efficiently. It will also explore how to structure your applications and systems architecture using the new 'layered' design principle, so you can build the neatly tiered cake of your dreams, and avoid a messy apple strudel.  

Key takeaways:

• Have a clearer idea of when to apply which agile principles, and when not to  
• Understand how layered design can make your product development faster and your products more robust  
• Have a toolkit of hints and tips to help you run more efficient projects
