Neal Ford
“Metrics are a common adjunct to the deployment pipeline in incremental change environments. If teams use this effort as a proof-of-concept, developers should gather appropriate metrics for both before and after scenarios. Gathering concrete data is the best way to for developers to vet the approach; remember the adage that demonstration defeats discussion.”
Neal Ford, Building Evolutionary Architectures: Support Constant Change

“Every program attempts to expand until it can read mail. Those programs which cannot so expand are replaced by ones which can.”
Jamie Zawinski
