Quick intros
Five minutes to say hello and share what's on your mind this week.
Hyderabad Software Architects
No slides.
No prep.
Just real talk.
An open community for architects and engineering leaders. Bring a question, a trade-off you can't resolve, or a career itch you can't name. The room decides the topic.
What an HSA session is like
A casual, come-as-you-are hour. You don't need to speak, and nobody is assigned a topic in advance.
Open floor
Ask, share, debate or just listen. Questions from the room set the agenda.

About HSA
Hyderabad Software Architects was founded in December 2015 by Shashi Jeevan M. P. as a place where people who design and lead software systems can think out loud with peers.
The format is deliberately simple: a small online room, an open floor, and honest conversation. If you have a question you couldn't ask in stand-up, this is the place for it.
We also publish a short monthly digest on the blog covering developments worth knowing about, starting with what the 2026 Stack Overflow Developer Survey says about AI and engineering work.
