Get your copyEffective software architecture can be integral to the success of your organisation. It should support business agility, enabling software that meets user needs and works seamlessly with existing IT systems and processes.
Legacy IT systems weigh your organisation down, preventing you from responding quickly to change and adapting new technologies. We can support you in integrating new technologies successfully, and help your staff develop their own skills.
It is often hard for business leaders to cut through the hype around new technologies and identify those that will truly deliver competitive advantage. With our years of practical experience supporting organisations facing similar challenges, we can help you quickly identify and assess the range of options available, and select those that meet your requirements.
It's not just about the technologies, but how you build them to work together for your organisation. We have nearly two decades of experience in building large-scale enterprise systems that work. We can help you deliver architectures that provide scalability, maintainability, security and extensibility.
By identifying an agile and low-cost approach to improving the scalability of a key platform for its customers, we helped Saxo Bank respond quickly to new customer requirements with new enterprise architecture. Read more
We believe that technology architecture should start small, be based on an initial set of goals, and evolve as these goals change and grow. This avoids unnecessary upfront analysis and investment while providing maximum flexibility and agility.
We are practitioners with deep experience of designing and building large-scale enterprise systems. We get to know your organisation before recommending tools, technologies and approaches that are tried and tested.
We build bespoke architectures, but only where this approach adds value. We always look for open source or commercial technologies that 'fit', to provide the best return on investment. Our commitment to open source is clear. As a member of FINOS, we have contributed to significant projects supporting financial services and beyond.
We always design with future maintenance and extensibility in mind. We work closely in collaboration with your wider organisation to ensure a good fit, and we’re cautious and pragmatic in the use of bleeding-edge technologies.

Microservices have become the standard architectural pattern for everything. It’s a great and versatile pattern, but what people rarely talk about is the cost. In this episode, we discuss the real-world impact of choosing this pattern and when it might not be the right choice.
