Architecture

Software Architecture

Design and review of systems that have to hold under real load, real failure, and real cost pressure. The output is a documented target state and a sequenced path to it, not a diagram.

When businesses engage Blobb for this

  • A system has reached a scale its original boundaries did not anticipate
  • Changes cross too many services and teams before reaching production
  • A modernization program has a destination but no safe sequence
  • Architecture decisions live in diagrams that no longer match the system

What the work involves

Blobb maps the current system, its data flow, service boundaries, dependencies, and failure modes. A target architecture is tested against expected load, commercial constraints, and the team’s ability to operate it. Migration is sequenced so value arrives before the final state. Each trade-off is written down and can be revisited when the constraints change.

What you get

  • Current and target architecture records
  • A sequenced migration plan
  • Service boundary and data flow decisions
  • Failure, scaling, and cost assumptions
  • Decision records for material trade-offs

How it is engaged

Blobb usually recommends an independent assessment before a design or re-architecture program. Depending on what is already known, that can be a full architecture audit or a focused review of the decision at hand.
