Architecture Intelligence from GitHub

A GitHub-connected architecture intelligence solution that analyzes application repositories, generates the current-state architecture, and suggests architecture updates for new features and technology upgrades.

Built as part of the Forward Deployed Engineer program, which I completed while working with members of different teams.

Problem

Enterprise architecture documentation is often missing, incomplete or outdated. Architects can spend significant time reconstructing the current state of an application before evaluating changes.

How it works

  1. 01GitHub repository
  2. 02Repository / code analysis
  3. 03Architecture discovery
  4. 04Current-state architecture
  5. 05Proposed feature / technology change
  6. 06Architecture recommendation

Key capabilities

  • GitHub repository connectivity
  • Repository analysis to understand the application
  • Current-state architecture diagram generation
  • Suggested changes for proposed new features
  • Suggested updates for technology upgrades
  • Visual help where documentation is incomplete

Team collaboration

This was a collaborative, cross-team effort delivered within the Forward Deployed Engineer Program. Components were built by the team; outcomes belong to the team as a whole.
