"We create products and services that we are proud of" This was one of the 3 core values in the best company I ever worked for. One I would never leave, if the region was not heading for a disaster. Good architecture transcends the software: enables people to be their best, evolve the software to better match the reality of its reason for existence. In an effective organization, people constantly exceed their own expectations. They debate alternatives, understanding the reality of momentum, but aiming for an infinitely long living product. They identify the "main problem", find ways to best solve that. A good architecture does not do much more than what's needed, but avoid unnecessary assumptions that would block future development. It is vague, philosophical, pragmatic, challenging, rewarding.
