Practical self-assessments, decision guides and learning tools built from the same thinking as the writing. Each tool is independent, vendor-neutral and designed to help people examine important questions before committing to a direction.
A free practical working pack for architects preparing ARB, HLD, security, cloud, risk, NFR, and production-readiness reviews. Editable in your browser, exports to PDF and Word, and can be opened locally. Turn scattered review preparation into a structured, decision-ready document.
Assess whether your organisation has the business, technical, operational, security, financial and governance foundations needed for responsible cloud adoption. Designed for technology environments ranging from a few workloads to approximately 5,000 workloads.
A short decision aid for assessing whether one application capability is better suited to normal non-AI software, an AI-led design or a controlled hybrid architecture. It helps separate where certainty is required from where interpretation adds value.
A practical self-assessment for deciding where one workload or capability should run — in-house, colocation, dedicated or managed hosting, private cloud, public cloud, PaaS, SaaS, or a hybrid model. Includes AI-aware hosting and deployment considerations.
A practical self-assessment for understanding your current architecture review stage, expected ARB approval gate, likely review level, missing preparation items, and recommended next action before requesting architecture approval.
A quick browser-based readiness check for architecture submissions, HLDs, and ARB preparation. It helps identify evidence present, evidence missing, and decisions still needed before review.
A guided decision tool for thinking through cloud infrastructure choices before selecting a platform, migration path or operating model. Vendor-neutral. Structured reflection across cost, security, operations, resilience and reversibility.
A practical self-assessment that helps small businesses understand whether their everyday IT environment is fragile, stable or ready to grow. Covers ten categories including identity, backup, endpoint security and disaster recovery.
A playful collection of technology card games for children, students and curious beginners to explore servers, networks, cloud, security, data and infrastructure ideas. A personal educational project — freely offered, no account needed.
Tools for cloud readiness, architecture review preparation, ARB readiness, architecture decisions, migration strategy, identity foundations and operating-model readiness.
Practical assessments covering infrastructure resilience, backup, vendor dependency, branch environments and operational risk.
Interactive ways to understand cloud, infrastructure, architecture trade-offs and fundamental technology concepts.
