Architecture Decisions
Warning
The ADR Process, Template and this site are iterating rapidly right now as we seek to introduce ADRs and change our ways of working. Content may be at different levels of completeness and consistency right now, this will improve with time.
This section contains all architecture decisions that have been made and documented using our Architecture Decision Records (ADR) process. The decisions are organised into three main categories:
Each decision is documented using our standard ADR Template, which ensures consistent and complete documentation of the context, consequences, and rationale behind each choice.
Meta Decisions
Meta decisions are decisions about how we make and document decisions. These include choices about our ADR process itself, documentation standards, and tooling. These includes decisions about:
- Naming conventions for ADRs
- Documentation format and tools
- Site navigation enhancements
- Quality assurance tools like linters and spell checkers
Process Decisions
Process decisions document important choices about how we work and operate. For example, these cover areas such as:
- Security processes (e.g., vulnerability disclosure)
- Development workflows
- Operational procedures
Technical Decisions
Technical decisions are specific architectural choices about our systems, technologies, and implementations. These are include decisions about:
- Technology selections
- System architectures
- Integration patterns
- Security implementations
- Infrastructure choices
