Architecture reviews
We analyse your existing architecture — strengths, bottlenecks, risks — and deliver a concrete improvement roadmap. Not just a list of problems, but prioritised steps.
Service
Software architecture that grows with your business and outlasts technology shifts.
Bad software architecture costs silently — weeks of delay per feature, bugs you can't catch, migrations that never happen. We help you design or repair a software architecture that scales with your business and de-risks technology decisions for the years ahead.
What you get
We analyse your existing architecture — strengths, bottlenecks, risks — and deliver a concrete improvement roadmap. Not just a list of problems, but prioritised steps.
.NET, Node, or Java? Microservices or monolith? Own frontend or headless CMS? We deliver a grounded decision document.
When complexity can't be refactored away, structured modelling helps. Bounded contexts, ubiquitous language, event storming — applied pragmatically, not dogmatically.
We tell you honestly when the overhead is worth it and when it isn't. Microservices aren't a silver bullet — a well-structured monolith beats a tangled service mess.
From legacy to modern, without a big bang. Strangler-fig pattern, gradual replacement, parallel paths — we pick the strategy that fits your reality.
We identify debt, prioritise refactorings, and slot the work into the sprint plan. Debt doesn't have to be paid all at once — but it can't be ignored.
What we work with
We pick the technology based on your needs — these are our daily tools.
Frequently asked
Before you sink a lot of money into an architecture that won't carry the load — or when the team notices features taking longer and longer to ship. A review typically runs one to two weeks and delivers a prioritised roadmap, not just a list of problems.
Usually a modular monolith, until growth genuinely justifies microservices. We see too many projects start with microservices and suffocate in distributed complexity. The call is made case-by-case against actual scaling and team realities.
Identification and prioritisation of debt, then continuous reduction baked into the sprint plan — no big-bang refactor. We turn implicit, dangerous debt into documented, controllable debt that gets paid down step by step.
Software erosion is the gradual decay of an originally clean architecture under the pressure of changing requirements. We address it with Architecture Decision Records, architecture tests in CI, and regular reviews — preventive rather than reactive.
Yes. We assess architecture decisions from an outside perspective — typically two to five days with a concrete assessment report. Risks are named clearly without us auto-pitching for follow-up work.
