Chapters · Deployment patterns
Central platforms improve consistency, while domain platforms can improve specialization and ownership. A federated model often combines shared control services with domain-specific data and applications.
Comparison
| Platform model | Best fit | Primary trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| Centralized | Organizations prioritizing consistency and shared operations | Can become a delivery bottleneck without clear service boundaries |
| Federated | Large organizations with strong domain ownership | Requires mature standards and shared control services |
| Isolated | High-risk or regulated workloads | Higher operational duplication and cost |
- Centralized platform for standardized controls.
- Federated platform for domain autonomy with shared guardrails.
- Isolated environments for regulated or high-risk workloads.
