Episode 9: Flow Architectures with James Urquhart
from The Unplanned Show · host PagerDuty
“All data is valuable when it’s generated, but the question is how fast does the value of the data decay?” In this episode, we hear from James Urquhart, author of "Flow Architectures" (O'Reilly), on how flow architectures follow patterns that move data through distributed systems from producers to consumers. By unblocking data from moving faster, organizations have the opportunity to generate more value from that data. We also discuss the role of standards, how LLMs and AI will exacerbate the need for standards, and how being able to take action quickly increases the realized value of data. We also touch on how resiliency benefits from being able to gain quick feedback and actioning on data. https://youtu.be/wqnTX16Xow0
