SEDT 24 Transcript EPISODE 24 [INTRODUCTION] [0:00:00.0] JM: Software architecture addresses the challenge of communicating and navigating large and complex systems to stakeholders, both technical and non-technical. Over the years, software architecture has gone in and out of fashion. Today we discuss why software architecture is important, what it means to have software architecture and how to properly structure teams and incorporate architecture. Today’s shows guest hosted by David Curry. David sits down with Simon Brown to discuss the importance of having a common language for software systems. Simon is an independent consultant specializing in software architecture. He's the author of Software Architecture for Developers and the founder of Structurizr. If you're interested in hosting a show yourself like David, who is guest hosting the show. It’s his second show he's guest hosted. Check out softwareengineeringdaily.com/host or you can email

MongoDB Atlas is the easiest way to use MongoDB in the cloud. It’s never been easier to hit the ground running. MongoDB Atlas is the only database as a service from the engineers who built MongoDB.
