Choose technology for the work it needs to do
Explore technology decisions across applications, AI, data, APIs, cloud and security. Start with system requirements and the team's ability to operate the result.
Start with the right question.
A technology list is not an architecture. Start with the users, integration boundaries, performance needs, data sensitivity and operating model. Prefer tools the team can maintain and validate the unfamiliar parts with a focused experiment. Compare lifecycle cost, migration effort, testability and recovery. The resources below explain the decisions; the current product catalogues help you explore reusable tools and their individual stages.
