Evolutionary architecture is something every software architect thinks about. To support this evolution in Apiumhub we believe that fitness functions can help in finding how well a system meets specified architecture goals and constraints in an automated way. And today’s post is about architectural fitness functions.

That statement nicely summarizes what makes software development difficult. OS X, which used to trumpet “It just works,” has evolved to “it used to just work”; the most user-centric Unix-like system ever built now staggers under the load of new and poorly thought-out features. Controlling complexity is.” I’m not the one to say.)

One of the biggest time costs in software development is understanding how a system works. Systems are getting more complex yet our ability to understand them doesn’t seem to be growing at the same rate. As we continuously develop software systems, the complexity slowly increases and we don’t fully realise it.

I should start by saying this section does not offer a treatise on how to do architecture. Technology systems are difficult to wrangle.
