Sample Architecture Code

const architecture = {
  layers: {
    presentation: {
      protocols: ['HTTP/2', 'GraphQL'],
      rateLimit: '10000rpm'
    },
    apiGateway: {
      routes: [{
        pattern: '/v1/*',
        target: 'container:3000'
      }],
      metrics: {
        latency: 'P99 < 300ms'
      }
    },
    services: {
      user: {
        healthCheck: '/api/health',
        dependsOn: ['auth', 'db']
      },
      db: {
        topology: 'geo-paired',
        storage: 'encrypted'
      }
