The Architecture Review Is Broken. Replace It with Fitness Functions.
The Architecture Review Is Broken. Replace It with Fitness Functions.

The architecture fitness function literature solved code-level governance. It never made the claim that the board itself becomes optional. Here is the missing argument — and the economics that prove the board is the slower and more expensive option.

...Summary Who this is for: Enterprise Architects, CTOs, Architecture Review Board members, Engineering Leaders, Governance Owners Problem it solves: Architecture reviews consume enormous calendar time, produce inconsistent...

Security Is Not a Gate. It Is an Architecture Property.
Security Is Not a Gate. It Is an Architecture Property.

Security is treated as a gate at the end of delivery. It should be an architecture property designed into three distinct boundaries. Here is the model that fixes the friction between security and delivery.

...most organisations govern security. A team builds a service. They design the API. They define the data model. They choose the integration pattern. They run the tests. At the end, security reviews it. The...
