As Youtube is one of the most preferred channels nowadays, we decided to create a list of our favourite software architecture youtube channels that we believe will inspire you. These youtube channels are managed by leading software architects who have written software architecture books and who regularly participate in international conferences and who give hands-on workshops.
Software Architecture Youtube Channels to Follow
This is one of our most favorite youtube channels. We met Mark in Global Software Architecture Summit where he gave his talk on “Architectural Thinking” and where we understood how good he is in software architecture.
Mark came up with an excellent initiative called “Software Architecture Monday” which is is a free bi-weekly video lesson series on some aspect of software architecture. These 10 minute YouTube videos contain various aspects of application, integration, and enterprise architecture.
These are the videos he would recommend watching during the journey from developer to software architect.
I am pretty sure you know him, but in case you don’t, let me tell you a little bit more about Mark Richards. Mark is an experienced, hands-on software architect involved in the architecture, design, and implementation of microservices architectures, service-oriented architectures, and distributed systems. He has been in the software industry since 1983 and has significant experience and expertise in application, integration, and enterprise architecture. Mark is the founder of DeveloperToArchitect.com, a free resource website devoted to helping developers in the journey to software architect. He is the author of numerous technical books and videos from O’Reilly, including several books on Microservices, the Software Architecture Fundamentals video series, Enterprise Messaging video series, Java Message Service, 2nd Edition, and a contributing author to 97 Things Every Software Architect Should Know. Mark has a master’s degree in computer science and numerous architect and developer certifications from IBM, Sun, The Open Group, and Oracle.
