An architecture review analyzes design decisions and their impact on the system. The aim is to identify potential improvements and ensure that the architecture meets current and future requirements.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Executable approach: can be applied and produces an outcome.
What organizes, connects, or makes decisions possible.
An architecture review assesses whether a system design plausibly meets its quality goals, constraints, and risks.
Architecture reviews grew from the need to detect costly structural decisions before implementation. Software architecture established reviews, scenarios, and quality-attribute analysis as repeatable decision practices.
Imagine a building inspection: it checks not only whether rooms exist, but whether the structure can carry its load, remain safe, and support its intended use.
An assessable system property such as performance, security, or modifiability.
A concrete situation against which the architecture is evaluated.
A deliberate choice between competing properties.
A review makes architectural assumptions, risks, and trade-offs discussable early. It does not replace runtime measurement and remains weak without concrete scenarios and evaluation criteria.
