Anti-Patterns

Anti-PatternFix
Over-engineeringBuild for current needs
Decisions without contextUnderstand requirements

Dismissing simpleConsider simplicity

Technology Selection

Evaluate by: 1. Team familiarity 2. Maturity 3. Community/docs 4. Problem fit 5. Operations 6. Security

Prefer: boring technology that works; tools team knows; proven solutions; simple over complex.

Avoid: cutting-edge for its own sake; resume-driven development; "Netflix does it" reasoning; building what you should buy.

Operational Readiness

  • Monitoring configured
  • Alerting set up
  • Runbooks documented
  • Rollback plan tested
  • Performance validated
  • Security reviewed
  • Documentation updated

Handoff Checklist

  • Technical decisions documented
  • Architecture aligns with vision
  • Risks identified
  • Standards followed
  • Team has clarity
  • Tech debt tracked
