Minimal Governance vs Heavy Governance
Developers should learn Minimal Governance when working in fast-paced, iterative environments like startups, digital transformations, or cloud migrations where traditional heavy governance slows down delivery and stifles creativity meets developers should learn and use heavy governance when working in environments with stringent regulatory requirements, high security needs, or critical systems where errors could have severe consequences. Here's our take.
Minimal Governance
Developers should learn Minimal Governance when working in fast-paced, iterative environments like startups, digital transformations, or cloud migrations where traditional heavy governance slows down delivery and stifles creativity
Minimal Governance
Nice PickDevelopers should learn Minimal Governance when working in fast-paced, iterative environments like startups, digital transformations, or cloud migrations where traditional heavy governance slows down delivery and stifles creativity
Pros
- +It's particularly useful for enabling DevOps practices, microservices architectures, and continuous deployment by allowing teams to self-manage within clear guardrails
- +Related to: devops, agile-methodologies
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Heavy Governance
Developers should learn and use Heavy Governance when working in environments with stringent regulatory requirements, high security needs, or critical systems where errors could have severe consequences
Pros
- +It is essential for projects involving sensitive data, financial transactions, or safety-critical applications, as it helps ensure compliance with laws like HIPAA, GDPR, or SOX
- +Related to: waterfall-methodology, compliance-management
