Open Source in Finance Forum New York 2024

InnerSource is a movement that is gathering momentum all across various technical industries, including FINTECH. This panel of experts will share their accomplishments, insights, lessons learned, challenges and what the future holds from 3 different perspectives. By hearing from experts at different levels of their experience, participants will gain valuable insights and practical guidance to enhance their own InnerSource practices within their own organizations.

Like Open Source, InnerSource relies on self-motivation and personal interests even if it is happening within a company. How then do you start an InnerSource movement that people want to join of their own volition and get a flywheel spinning? This lightning talk will touch on several ways Capital One is testing and learning to apply innersourcing at scale. These include: Culture challenges and ways to think about them, Tooling as a marketplace of buyers and sellers, Marketing by leveraging the community, Process Consulting, Motivation, and Career Planning

What does it take to provide a seamless experience for governing architecture - from creating and approving architecture to measuring compliance. How does architecture-as-code help in delivering a measurable and objective approach to align architecture with target roadmaps? How to manage tactical shortcuts and time-to-market decisions? Can architecture-as-code help keep architecture evergreen and can it identify and highlight architecture drift? These and other questions are discussed with a case study of Breeze - an architecture-as-code solution built by Morgan Stanley. It provides an extensible framework to support modules for various tasks such as creating and reviewing architecture, identifying adherence to architecture patterns, capturing immutable architecture snapshots, validating releases against approved architecture, etc. It is in the works to be open sourced and captures architecture-as-code in an open-source format, using CALM (https://github.com/finos/architecture-as-code).
