Chris Richardson at DDD Europe 2025
summary
Argues that microservices and Team Topologies form a synergistic two-way relationship that still works: microservice architecture creates clear, deployable boundaries that enable team topologies for large-scale systems with many teams, and Team Topologies practices (team types, interaction modes, cognitive load limits) make microservice development measurably more effective. Lays out two complementary parts — using microservices to structure teams, and applying Team Topologies patterns to reduce friction in microservice delivery.
