architecture-review

Standardize architecture review criteria by applying a formal evaluation framework assessing principle alignment, stack fit, operational cost, complexity budget, alternative analysis, and failure modes to generate reproducible decision rationale for Kubernetes infrastructure proposals.

Use an extensible architecture evaluation framework to assess technology additions in GitOps environments. It evaluates proposals against defined principles, stack compatibility, operational costs, alternative options, and specific failure modes to ensure reproducible decisions.

Yes, this architecture governance framework explicitly supports Talos-based bare-metal stacks. It applies stack-fit assessments and evaluation criteria to standardize design rationale and operational costs across Talos and Kubernetes-based environments.

Evaluate operational cost and complexity budget by running the proposed infrastructure component through a formal architecture review. The framework enforces assessment of these factors alongside stack fit and failure modes to generate structured decision rationale.

Use a formal decision framework for stack-fit assessments during technology additions and architecture reviews. It grounds design decisions in established patterns, enforcing alternative analysis and failure mode evaluation to maintain reproducible, GitOps-friendly infrastructure standards.
