    A chave está em otimizar-se para a mudança. Ser flexível à mudança é uma das melhores coisas que uma organização de software pode fazer. O Agile é construído sobre essa premissa: entregamos em iterações curtas para nos adaptarmos rapidamente, do ponto de vista de entrega. Mas essa flexibilidade também deve ser possível do ponto de vista arquitetural. Deve ser fácil substituir um pedaço de software ou uma funcionalidade por outra sem comprometer o sistema. O erro mais comum é over engineering, soluções baseadas em pressupostos futuros, o que não deixa espaço para enganos. Como resultado, acabamos com arquiteturas rígidas que não são fáceis de ajustar caso as condições do mercado mudem.

    "Unexpected market shifts require agility and foresight to keep systems relevant." Here’s how to adapt effectively: Trend Analysis: Use tools like Google Trends or Power BI to monitor market shifts and predict future needs. Customer-Centric Feedback: Implement feedback loops via surveys or analytics tools to understand evolving user demands. Agile Development: Adopt frameworks like Scrum to iteratively refine system features and stay flexible. Modular Design: Structure your system in a way that allows easy updates or integration of new functionalities. Cloud Scalability: Leverage AWS or Azure to scale resources up or down based on changing market demands.

    Imagine the project as a grid. ROWS/layers represent the design phases of the project. AND COLUMNS represent the components/sections/groups/clusters/criteria of the various aspects of the design. Now when a significant and unexpected change happens (either internal/externally driven), it can be mapped onto the grid. These changes can then be tackled based on the subject's expertise and awareness.
