There was an article recently (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30936189 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30936189) that was basically about how far you can get with a simple architecture.
One thing I don't remember explicitly called out, is that most all architectures are grown. There are scarily few situations where starting with the complicated idea is a good idea.

The inverse proposition also appears to be true: A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be made to work. You have to start over, beginning with a working simple system.
