Welcome to the group!

[Kevin Swiber]

Howdy,

I started this group with the hopes of bringing together lots of interesting topics that are starting to form what I believe to be the future of software architecture.

I'd like to talk about a variety of patterns and technologies... and how these all connect to form a solid solution for today's issues of performance, scale, and frequency of change.

Here's a sample of the topics of interest:

• CQRS
  
• DDD
  
• REST
  
• Key-value stores
  
• Document databases
  
• HATEOAS
  

And a sample of some technologies of interest:

• C#
  
• Erlang
  
• node.js
  
• CoffeeScript
  
• F#
  
• CouchDB
  
• Membase
  
• Redis
  

Let's figure out where this big ship is headed and help each other figure out the best practices around distributed application architecture.

Thanks for your interest!

Awesome!  This looks like my kind of group.  Can't wait to see some of the great conversations that take place here.  The first thing Kevin did right was by starting this at Google Groups instead of Yahoo Groups.
