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.
