Architecture Foundation¶
Executive Summary¶
The Architecture Foundation defines the enterprise technical architecture direction for Algosure v0.2. It translates the Blueprint into architectural governance for the platform that will implement the AI Digital Procurement Company.
This layer does not define APIs, database schemas, implementation code, deployment topology, or runtime configuration. It defines the architectural principles, constraints, quality attributes, decision process, governance model, and solution direction that future engineering work must follow.
Why This Exists¶
Algosure has a v0.1 Blueprint Foundation covering Foundation, Domain Model, Practices, Digital Professionals, AIOS, Business Capabilities, and Business Processes. v0.2 must ensure that technical architecture implements that Blueprint rather than inventing a separate system shape.
Owner¶
The owner is the Chief Product Officer and Enterprise Architect.
Business Value¶
The Architecture Foundation creates a controlled bridge from business architecture to engineering. It reduces architectural drift, preserves domain ownership, supports enterprise-grade delivery, and gives implementation teams a clear set of design constraints before APIs, schemas, or code are created.
Architecture Scope¶
| Area | Scope |
|---|---|
| Architecture Vision | Defines the target architecture direction for Algosure v0.2. |
| Architecture Principles | Defines non-negotiable architecture rules. |
| Architecture Governance | Defines review, compliance, escalation, and stewardship. |
| Architecture Decision Process | Defines how architectural decisions are proposed, evaluated, approved, and recorded. |
| Quality Attributes | Defines quality goals that architecture must support. |
| Architecture Constraints | Defines constraints that shape future solution design. |
| Architecture Roadmap | Defines the architecture work sequence after v0.2. |
| Technology Principles | Defines technology selection and usage principles without selecting detailed implementations. |
| Solution Architecture | Defines high-level solution layers and ownership alignment. |

- API endpoint definitions.
- OpenAPI specifications.
- Database schemas.
- Cloud provider-specific deployment architecture.
- Runtime configuration.
- Model provider selection.
- Source code implementation.
- Detailed UX design.
Architecture Baseline¶
The v0.2 Architecture Foundation starts from these established decisions:
- Algosure is an AI Digital Procurement Company.
- Domains own business facts.
- Practices own operational capability.
- Digital Professionals execute governed work.
- AIOS orchestrates work.
- Humans approve high-impact decisions.
- Architecture must mirror organizational architecture.
- One Concept, One Owner applies across the platform.
