Facilitating the Spread of Knowledge and Innovation in Professional Software Development
|InfoQ's podcasts are interviews with the software architects, senior engineers, and team leaders who build and operate production systems. Episodes work through the tradeoffs behind real decisions in software architecture, AI and ML engineering, and engineering culture. Guests are practitioners and QCon speakers describing what worked and what broke in systems they built.
Interviews with the software architects and senior engineers who build and run production systems. Each episode works through the tradeoffs behind a real decision in architecture, AI engineering, and development.

In this episode, Thomas Betts speaks with Vlad Khononov about balancing coupling in software design, the subject of his recent book. They discuss how coupling is necessary for a system to function, but has to be balanced to allow the system to evolve. Vlad identifies three factors that can be used to measure coupling: knowledge sharing, distance, and volatility.
