Shrek, Onions and Architecture

Abstract

Have you ever encountered a codebase that’s ogreish and has so many layers of complexity that it makes you cry? It might actually be an onion!

In this humorous talk we’ll investigate the structure of large monolithic applications and how we can peel back layers to reveal greater understanding. Using the principles of hexagonal architecture and the science of onion growth, we can make monoliths great again.
