\u201cDelay design decisions until it\u2019s necessary. Architecture is an art, not a science. Don\u2019t architect for things you don\u2019t know. Your design decisions should always be built on facts, not guesses."

Pierre Pureur is the co-author of \u201cContinuous Architecture in Practice\u201d and an acclaimed software architect. In this second of a three-part series of \u201cContinuous Architecture\u201d episodes, Pierre shared his own perspectives on the 6 key principles of continuous architecture. We then discussed in-depth the two important quality attributes, which are the scalability and performance. For each quality attribute, Pierre described the attribute definition, why it is an important architectural concern, and some of the common tactics used to improve the attribute in the modern system architecture.
