+ ## Overview
4
+
5
+ This document covers architectural frameworks, methodologies, and tools including TOGAF, Domain-Driven Design (DDD), CI/CD practices, and architecture documentation tools.

+
9
+ ## Knowledge
10
+
11
+ ### TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework)
12
+
13
+ **What is TOGAF?**
14
+ - Enterprise architecture framework
15
+ - Provides methods and tools for developing architectures
16
+ - Industry-standard approach
17
+ - Version 9.2 is current standard
18
+
19
+ **TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM)**
20
+
21
+ **ADM Phases**
22
+ 1. **Preliminary Phase** - Framework and principles
23
+ 2. **Phase A: Architecture Vision** - Scope and stakeholders
24
+ 3. **Phase B: Business Architecture** - Business strategy and processes
25
+ 4. **Phase C: Information Systems Architecture** - Data and application architecture
26
+ 5. **Phase D: Technology Architecture** - Infrastructure and platforms
27
+ 6. **Phase E: Opportunities and Solutions** - Implementation planning
28
+ 7. **Phase F: Migration Planning** - Transition architecture
29
+ 8. **Phase G: Implementation Governance** - Architecture compliance
30
+ 9. **Phase H: Architecture Change Management** - Continuous improvement
31
+
32
+ **TOGAF Deliverables**
33
+ - Architecture Vision Document
34
+ - Architecture Definition Document
35
+ - Architecture Requirements Specification
36
+ - Architecture Roadmap
37
+ - Transition Architecture
38
+ - Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs)
39
+
40
+ **When to Use TOGAF**
41
+ - Large enterprise transformations
42
+ - Complex multi-system integrations
43
+ - Regulatory compliance requirements
44
+ - Long-term strategic planning
45
+
46
+ ### Domain-Driven Design (DDD)
47
+
48
+ **Core Concepts**
49
+
50
+ **Ubiquitous Language**
51
+ - Shared vocabulary between developers and domain experts
52
+ - Used in code, documentation, and conversations
53
+ - Reduces translation errors
54
+ - Evolves with understanding
55
+
56
+ **Bounded Contexts**
57
+ - Explicit boundaries for models
58
+ - Each context has its own ubiquitous language
59
+ - Models can differ across contexts
60
+ - Clear integration points
61
+
62
+ **Strategic Design Patterns**
63
+ - **Context Mapping** - Relationships between bounded contexts
64
+ - **Shared Kernel** - Common code shared between contexts
65
+ - **Customer-Supplier** - Upstream/downstream relationships
66
+ - **Conformist** - Downstream conforms to upstream
67
+ - **Anti-Corruption Layer** - Translation layer between contexts
68
+ - **Open Host Service** - Published API for integration
69
+ - **Published Language** - Well-documented integration format
70
+
71
+ **Tactical Design Patterns**
72
+ - **Entities** - Objects with identity
73
+ - **Value Objects** - Immutable objects without identity
74
+ - **Aggregates** - Cluster of entities with consistency boundary
75
+ - **Aggregate Root** - Entry point to aggregate
76
+ - **Repositories** - Persistence abstraction
77
+ - **Domain Services** - Stateless operations
78
+ - **Domain Events** - Something that happened in the domain
79
+ - **Factories** - Complex object creation
80
+
81
+ **DDD Layers**
82
+ ```
83
+ ┌─────────────────────────────┐
84
+ │ Presentation Layer │ ← UI, API Controllers
85
+ ├─────────────────────────────┤
86
+ │ Application Layer │ ← Use Cases, Application Services
87

88
+ │ Domain Layer │ ← Entities, Value Objects, Domain Services
89
+ ├─────────────────────────────┤
90
+ │ Infrastructure Layer │ ← Repositories, External Services
91
+ └─────────────────────────────┘
92
+ ```
93
+
94

120
+ - **Canary Deployment** - Gradual rollout to subset
121

+ ### Example 4: Architecture Decision Record (ADR)
657
+
658
+ ```markdown
659
+ # ADR-001: Use Microservices Architecture
660
+
661
+ ## Status
662
+ Accepted
663
+
664
+ ## Context
665
+ Our monolithic e-commerce application is experiencing:
666
+ - Difficulty scaling individual components
667
+ - Long deployment cycles (2-3 hours)
668
+ - Team coordination bottlenecks
669
+ - Technology stack lock-in
670
+
671
+ We need to improve:
672
+ - Independent scalability of services
673
+ - Deployment frequency (target: multiple times per day)
674
+ - Team autonomy
675
+ - Technology flexibility
676
+
677
+ ## Decision
678
+ We will adopt a microservices architecture with the following characteristics:
679
+
680
+ 1. **Service Boundaries**: Aligned with business capabilities
681
+ - User Service
682
+ - Product Service
683
+ - Order Service
684
+ - Inventory Service
685
+ - Payment Service
686
+
687
+ 2. **Communication**:
688
+ - Synchronous: REST APIs for queries
689
+ - Asynchronous: Event-driven (Kafka) for commands
690
+
691
+ 3. **Data Management**: Database per service pattern
692
+
693
+ 4. **Deployment**: Containerized (Docker) on Kubernetes
694
+
695
+ 5. **API Gateway**: Single entry point for clients
696
+
697
+ ## Consequences
698
+
699
+ ### Positive
700
+ - Independent deployment and scaling
701
+ - Technology diversity (choose best tool per service)
702
+ - Team autonomy and parallel development
703
+ - Fault isolation
704
+ - Easier to understand individual services
705
+
706
+ ### Negative
707
+ - Increased operational complexity
708
+ - Distributed system challenges (network latency, partial failures)
709
+ - Data consistency challenges
710
+ - Testing complexity
711
+ - Need for service discovery and orchestration
712
+ - Higher infrastructure costs initially
713
+
714
+ ### Mitigation Strategies
715
+ - Invest in observability (logging, monitoring, tracing)
716
+ - Implement circuit breakers and retry logic
717
+ - Use saga pattern for distributed transactions
718
+ - Comprehensive integration testing
719
+ - Gradual migration (strangler fig pattern)
720
+
721
+ ## Alternatives Considered
722
+
723
+ ### Modular Monolith
724
+ - Pros: Simpler deployment, easier testing
725
+ - Cons: Still coupled deployment, scaling limitations
726
+ - Rejected: Doesn't address scaling and deployment frequency goals
727
+
728
+ ### Serverless
729
+ - Pros: No infrastructure management, auto-scaling
730
+ - Cons: Vendor lock-in, cold start latency, cost at scale
731
+ - Rejected: Not suitable for our traffic patterns and cost constraints

854
+ ## Understanding
855
+
856
+ ### When to Use TOGAF
857
+
858
+ **Use TOGAF When:**
859
+ - Large enterprise with multiple systems
860
+ - Regulatory compliance requirements
861
+ - Long-term strategic planning (3-5 years)
862
+ - Need for stakeholder alignment
863
+ - Complex organizational structure
864
+
865
+ **Don't Use TOGAF When:**
866
+ - Small startup or single product
867
+ - Need for rapid iteration
868
+ - Simple system architecture
869
+ - Limited resources for governance
870
+
871
+ ### When to Apply DDD
872
+
873
+ **Use DDD When:**
874
+ - Complex business domain
875
+ - Domain experts available
876
+ - Long-lived system
877
+ - Core business differentiator
878
+ - Frequent domain changes
879
+
880
+ **Don't Use DDD When:**
881
+ - Simple CRUD application
882
+ - No domain experts
883
+ - Short-lived project
884
+ - Generic problem (use off-the-shelf)
885
+
886
+ ### CI/CD Best Practices
887
+
888
+ **Architecture Automation**
889
+ - Version control everything (code, infrastructure, configuration)
890
+ - Automate testing at all levels
891
+ - Implement architecture fitness functions
892
+ - Use feature flags for gradual rollouts
893
+ - Monitor and alert on architectural violations
894
+
895
+ **Documentation Automation**
896
+ - Generate diagrams from code
897
+ - Keep ADRs with code
898
+ - Automate documentation updates
899
+ - Use living documentation
900
+
901
+ ### Common Pitfalls
902
+
903
+ **TOGAF Pitfalls**
904
+ - Over-documentation (analysis paralysis)
905
+ - Ignoring agile principles
906
+ - Treating it as waterfall
907
+ - Not adapting to organization
908
+
909
+ **DDD Pitfalls**
910
+ - Applying tactical patterns without strategic design
911
+ - Ignoring bounded contexts
912
+ - Anemic domain models
913
+ - Over-engineering simple domains
914
+
915
+ **CI/CD Pitfalls**
916
+ - Manual steps in pipeline
917
+ - Insufficient testing
918
+ - No rollback strategy
919
+ - Ignoring security in pipeline
