This is my site for fun and work. I am Sander, a software architect.

My articles are published on Infoworld, AutomatiseringsGids and Emerce, too.
I gather worldwide news, whether it is about e-commerce or service oriented architectures.
My resume, the Web Unified Process and the general conditions are offered in several formats.
Some more information about me is shown here, like a resume, professional history and more.

Stuff that happens to me sometimes inspires me to write. It may be nonsense, though.
WUP (Web Unified Process) is a lightweight and agile development method for web projects.
This where I keep technical posts that might come in handy.
Architectures
So, at work I am the guy who draws shapes with mysterious blocks and lines that other people eventually try to convert to software. Furthermore, I tend to have an opinion on almost anything. Don't ask why, but they call me Ming the Merciless here.
It's a little more than just software. I operate at the boundaries of software design and business. I bug everybody.

IT strategy
- Should my company expose its APIs, or should we wait?
- How do I crank up the numbers of my software distribution?
- I have a legacy system that doesn't communicate with our web front end, but I still like it; is it possible to change it without throwing it away?
- Should we deploy a uniform IT infrastructure, or could we combine products on different platforms just as easy?
Agile methodology
To establish a rhythm in development, that will keep the project members on track even when the going gets tough, a development method can be used. I like agile methodologies like XP, SCRUM and WUP.
Implementing a new methodology hurts, but is also very rewarding. I have seen teams up their speed enormously by doing so. And it's a hobby, too.
