Keynote: What really matters
summary
Outlines five concrete priorities for successful projects: start with purpose, align to business context, focus on the language (ubiquitous language and even trying language‑oriented DSLs tested over ~10 years), create a circle of safety (protect new initiatives with clear borders or separate teams), and solve bottlenecks (optimize the true throughput constraint). Offers practical claims: a simple cost model (≈€1 per line of code per year) convinces managers, microservices are framed as protecting collaboration, and targeted automation plus narrowing bottlenecks delivers large ROI.
