Architecting for Extensibility


In this episode, Bett and Russ discuss user extensible software.  An area Russ has specialized and leveraged heavily at the company he co-founded.  Russ will be speaking on this topic at the ninth annual SEI Architecture Technology User Network (SATURN) Conference 2013.

The extensibility discussed goes beyond just changing forms or a customized portal, the discussion is about software that is customizable at its core, such that you can essentially create an entirely new solution based on it without writing any code, or perhaps just a little code.  The architectural basis for this is an Adaptive Object-Model.

On a related note: Russ' "Software Extensibility Manifesto"
