In this talk, Eduardo discusses a concept he has been working on called "Architecture Topologies", a set of thinking models and practices to help organisations understand and improve their approaches to architecture. Having explicit language to do that is essential:

So, C4 Level 1 is the Context top-level view for strategic portfolio management. Then, we can zoom into Level 2 and get different ARTs, one per Container, and then a delivery teams "safely" working on Level 3 components. ...I am sure there is someone, somewhere, thinking of this 🤣

😎 I could not resist it... although Archimate is actually from the 00s, so not a fair comment to @nick-tune.me Fun fact, the original creators were ex-colleagues of mine from my academic years... many interesting ideas, but quite a lot of things too, which can easily be misused.

💡I love @simon.bvssh.com's framing of enterprise architecture (and his continuous work on modernizing the topic): It is all about aligning (and considering) the business architecture, organizational structure, and systems architecture. Approaching things in isolation will lead to subpar outcomes!
