Architectural Katas is an exercise created by Ted Neward. Similarly to code katas, the role of this session is to practice and became better at software architecture. The exercise normally consists on groups of 3 to 5 people, each one of them doing a different kata. The group will discuss options and sketch what a possible solution may look like. The moderator assigns the katas and acts as a "customer" answering questions from the teams. At the end, the teams present their solution to the other teams in the room, and answer challenges (in the form of hard-but-fair questions). This session is open to everyone, from seasoned architect to junior developers. The main goal is to practice our architectural skills by learning from each other. The original Kata is described here (https://archkatas.herokuapp.com/about.html).

Una pasada. Nunca había asistido a una Architectural Kata, pero me ha dado la oportunidad de discutir sobre un problema muy amplio con gente de otras empresas y a la que no conocía. Se me han hecho cortas las dos horas!
