Two days of networking, discussion, information and enter­tainment. The Architecture Gathering in Munich, the meeting place for software archi­tects, organized by iSAQB and SIGS DATACOM. Because the path to agile organi­zation and innov­ative method­ology cannot be mastered with Power­Point charts, The Architecture Gathering 2018 focused on practical examples. In more than 20 sessions, the partic­i­pants were shown what, how and why software architecture is successful.
