🏗️ Scaling Architecture for 200+ Products

The private equity firm ESW Capital acquires a new product every week.
The core challenge is how to keep this pace while still maintaining architectural quality.

The company went through several stages and eventually settled on the last one:

• Architecture done by developers
  ➕ fast in the short term
  ➖ quality suffers

• One architect per product
  ➕ high quality
  ➖ focus on non-critical details
  ➖ narrow, product-only perspective

• Shared pool of architects across all products
  ➕ broad, cross-product perspective
  ➖ still too much focus on non-critical details

• Architect pool + delegation to developers
  ➕ high speed
  ➕ excellent quality
  ➖ long learning curve

A full breakdown of the remaining challenges, metrics, and conclusions is on Boosty.
