We had a mix-up with scheduling and a couple of us were catching up on reading. Given that the two chapters flow nicely into each other, it worked out okay to talk about them together.</p> <h2 id="chapter-14--maintaining-model-integrity">Chapter 14 – Maintaining Model Integrity</h2> <p>This chapter was more tactical than philosophical, which made for a slightly different reading pace. It dives into the patterns for preserving the integrity of large systems by managing how different models interact. I found the distinction between <strong>Shared Kernel</strong> and <strong>Customer/Supplier</strong> particularly useful — one speaks to tight alignment, the other to necessary detachment. The <strong>&ldquo;Conformist&rdquo;</strong> pattern also stood out, not because it&rsquo;s ideal, but because it acknowledges the reality of working with upstream teams that you have no leverage over.</p>
