We can use these principles to design our systems – that is, systems with the required feedback loops for both operational use and transformational learning.

In this chapter, we also learned how we can design systems by using microservices architectures. We have learned to unbundle and rebundle organizations – now, we must do the same with the systems that these organizations use. It’s all about enabling the dynamic scaling of resources around the patient. We unbundle the tasks and the resources and provide these when and...
