Release Management Across Your Architecture
Track releases and deployments across your entire architecture. See which components changed, when they deployed, and their architecture impact.
Track Architecture Changes Across Releases
Create architecture releases to snapshot your C4 model at specific points in time. Compare releases, track what changed, and maintain a versioned history of your architecture evolution.

Snapshot your C4 architecture model at release points. Compare releases, track changes, and maintain versioned architecture history.

No history of architecture changes
Your architecture evolves but there is no record of what it looked like last quarter, last year, or before the big migration.
Cannot compare before and after
After a major change, you cannot easily see what was different. Was that service always there? When was this dependency added?
Architecture reviews lack baselines
Without snapshots, architecture reviews have no baseline to compare against. Progress is subjective.
Snapshot your current C4 model as a named release. Tag it with a version number and description.
Continue evolving architecture
Make changes to your C4 model through the visual editor, DSL, or AI discovery.
Diff any two releases to see what changed: new elements, removed elements, modified relationships.
Track evolution over time
Browse your release history to understand how the architecture evolved and why (with linked ADRs).
Architecture Snapshots
Capture the state of your C4 model at any point. Named, versioned, and tagged releases.
Visual diff between any two releases. See added, removed, and modified elements at a glance.
Full audit trail of architecture changes between releases. Who changed what and when.
Attach release notes and link ADRs to explain why the architecture changed.
Quarterly Architecture Reviews
Compare current architecture to the last quarterly release. Measure progress and identify unplanned drift.
Pre/Post Migration Comparison
Snapshot before a migration, then compare after to verify all changes were made correctly.
Provide auditors with versioned architecture snapshots showing the state at any point in time.
Version your architecture like you version your code
Architecture releases, comparisons, and history. Track how your system evolves over time.
