Critical Architecture

Critical architecture refers to the fundamental structure and design principles that ensure a system's stability, security, and efficiency. It involves planning how different parts of a system—such as software, hardware, and networks—interact and depend on each other. By focusing on critical architecture, organizations guarantee that their systems are resilient, scalable, and capable of meeting essential needs, even under stress or failure. Essentially, it’s the blueprint that defines the core framework enabling a system to perform reliably and securely over time.
