#TeamTopologies again, I like to share a couple of tweet-sized quotes that stood out to me:

many times in this situation especially #legacySystems doing modernization in the enterprise, you get different teams with different understandings and povs of the system i.e. diff #domainmodels trying to integrate a large system
we got one system that follows one model, and our system follows our model, what can we do to keep everything vibing the right way?
