Why I'm launching the Engineering Ecosystem

I am pleased to launch the Engineering Ecosystem, a newsletter for architects, engineers, staff engineers, engineering leads and managers, and CTOs.

As a society we depend increasingly on software and software engineers. At the same time the software industry still struggles to consider quality appropriately. The Engineering Ecosystem aims to achieve improved quality of software, higher productivity and well-being of developers by increasing  collaboration on improving practices, culture, processes, knowledge sharing and tools.

The main goals of the Engineering Ecosystem are to:

  • improve tools, guides and knowledge sharing

  • grow engineering skills

  • empower bottom-up decision making

  • intensify collaboration across companies, freelancers, independent consultants and open source contributors

  • provide an overview about tools, trainings, solutions, guides and good defaults

  • act as an overview of tool projects, so that you can use existing tools or contribute instead of developing your own tool

  • act as a feedback channel for tool and guide developers (e.g. technology teams can use the channel for getting early feedback)

The newsletter will be used to share thoughts, principles, practices, tools and technology about software engineering, craftsmanship and architecture for building software systems and sometimes focused on aspects especially relevant within the SAP Ecosystem. Additionally it will be used to share opportunities for collaboration and providing feedback to support contributions towards improving our practice, tools and technologies.

About me: I am Klaus Haeuptle an engineer and architect at SAP, the author of the books Clean ABAP and Clean SAPUI5, a coach for agile software engineering and a community servant leader for a large SAP internal grass roots community on improving tools, technologies, practices and culture, with more than 3000 participants from all locations and departments. I have almost 20 years of experiences applying and coaching agile software engineering practices (e.g. Test Driven Development, Clean Code, Refactoring, Evolutionary Architecture, Continuous Integration ….) in Enterprise Applications.

Views are my own - the content published on this channel reflects my opinion and engineering principles.
