-00:00:00,090 --> 00:00:02,810

-To do that let's look at how architectural evolution

-

-2

-00:00:02,810 --> 00:00:06,880

-occurs in practice. Ideally when a system evolves, its prescriptive

-

-3

-00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,340

-architecture should be modified first. Just like when you

-

-4

-00:00:09,340 --> 00:00:12,170

-modify a building. You change the blueprint and then you

-

-5

-00:00:12,170 --> 00:00:13,940

-change the actual building. You don't go the other

-

-6

-00:00:13,940 --> 00:00:17,820

-way around. In software, unfortunately this rarely ever happens in

-

-7

-00:00:17,820 --> 00:00:21,706

-practice. In practice the system, and therefore it's descriptive

-

-8

-00:00:21,706 --> 00:00:25,150

-architecture are often directly modified. Like in this case that

-

-9

-00:00:25,150 --> 00:00:27,870

-I'm showing here. So what happens is that the architecture

-

-10

-00:00:27,870 --> 00:00:32,259

-as conceived does not change. Whereas the architecture as implemented, does

-

-11

-00:00:32,259 --> 00:00:35,600

-change. And therefore these two things start diverging. And this really

-

-12

-00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,720

-happens for a number of reasons. So I'm just going to list

-

-13

-00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,740

-a few of those reasons here. In some cases it

-

-14

-00:00:41,740 --> 00:00:45,620

-just happens for plain sloppiness. I need to make this modification

-

-15

-00:00:45,620 --> 00:00:47,290

-and I don't really want to go back and look at

-

-16

-00:00:47,290 --> 00:00:50,610

-the prescriptive architecture modified. I'm just going to make the change, and

-

-17

-00:00:50,610 --> 00:00:53,800

-maybe I'll fix the description later. And then you never really get

-

-18

-00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,950

-to it. In other cases you do this because of the perception

-

-19

-00:00:56,950 --> 00:01:00,290

-of short deadlines. If you have to do something by this afternoon,

-

-20

-00:01:00,290 --> 00:01:01,300

-you're not going through a four

-

-21

-00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:03,410

-month software architecture review, you normally just

-

-22

-00:01:03,410 --> 00:01:06,460

-get to it, and do it. In some cases a prescriptive architecture

-

-23

-00:01:06,460 --> 00:01:09,510

-is not even present, so there's a lack of documentation. So in these

-

-24

-00:01:09,510 --> 00:01:12,450

-cases, clearly, you cannot go and modify something that does not even

-

-25

-00:01:12,450 --> 00:01:15,880

-exist, and so you jump directly to the code and start modifying that.

-

-26

-00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,280

-And as I said there's many, many more

-

-27

-00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,080

-other reasons why that happen. But important point here is

-

-28

-00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,770

-that it does happen and it does happen often

-

-29

-00:01:23,770 --> 00:01:27,250

-and the result is that prescriptive and descriptive architectures diverge.
