    Software Architecture Archaeology

    Documenting a software project long after is was launched, is not impossible. Our tools make completing this seemingly unmanageable task possible.

    We will help you dig into your code and step-by-step reveal your software's architecture.

    Architecture Recovery at its Best

    If you take over a software project from another department or from a customer, the initial situation in terms of architecture is usually far from a validated architecture.

    Often the documentation is not sufficient or understandable and you can only make assumptions about a possible architecture. In principle, the procedure is similar to that of architectural recovery, but represents an extreme form.
     

     

    Use Axivion Architecture Archaeology to

     

    • document the architecture of your project from scratch
    • be able to maintain 3rd party code
    • create a future-proof foundation for your software

     

     

    Software Archaeology: Find What You are Looking For

    Step 1

    Describe your hypothesis and define the mapping. If no usable documentation exists, use the included Axivion editor to draw your first hypothesis.

    Step 2

    Axivion_ArchitectureArchaeology_step2_greyBG

    Perform automated checks to find deviations from the hypothesis in the code.

    Step 3

    Axivion_ArchitectureArchaeology_step3_greyBG

    Assess the deviations by prioritizing the architecture violations, make the necessary adjustments and refine your hypothesis.

    Step 4

    Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 as often as needed until you verify that the architecture is accurate.

    Unearth Your Software Architecture

    Our experts will help you with the (re-)documentation of your project. Having to tackle such a task may seem overwhelming, but thanks to years of experience, we will guide you through the process to ensure your documentation not only is up-to-date, but also explain how it stays that way.
