Report from ArchDays 2021 "Description of Architecture by Text" by Boris Romanov

Interesting enough. reportwhich contained the following main thoughts:

1. The collective architect model, where the entire team is responsible for the architecture, works well in less complex cases. (Simple product changes, small projects)
2. In more complex cases, an architect is required to be responsible for the integrity of the architecture.
3. In order to ensure this integrity, it is necessary to record the technical decisions taken.
4. You can fix it in an arbitrary format, but for complex cases it is better to use standard notations.
5. You can use standard notations in "drawings" (visual editors) or in modeling tools that, in addition to pictures, know about the semantics of the model
6. The author finds himself in a situation where he needs a solution to describe an architecture that satisfies properties. n 6.1 Support for standard notations 6.2 Change management with history storage and version comparison 6.3 Centralized repositories with models 6.4 The ability to view without additional / complex software
7. The choice fell on plantuml and git, which together closed the problems of the author.

This report is interesting because many people end up using this plantuml + git bundle for similar purposes, which is practical, extensible and free. For example, in our company, this bundle is in honor.
