[Verse 1] When AI builds our systems fast and clean We need some rules to guide the machine Without clear boundaries things go wrong So let's learn governance with this song Architecture needs a guiding hand Service ownership across the land Maps and contracts, policies too These artifacts will see us through [Chorus] S-O-M, service ownership maps D-C rules, dependency gaps A-P-I contracts locked in place Schema evolution sets the pace Explicit rules for every call Architecture governance saves us all [Verse 2] Service ownership maps show who's in charge Each team responsible for their part large No confusion when the system breaks Clear accountability for all our sakes Dependency constraints keep things in line No circular calls that waste our time If service A depends on B Then B cannot call back to A, you see [Chorus] S-O-M, service ownership maps D-C rules, dependency gaps A-P-I contracts locked in place Schema evolution sets the pace Explicit rules for every call Architecture governance saves us all [Bridge] Billing service cannot call sync That's a rule that makes you think Async messages are the way Keep the system responsive every day Create policies that teams can follow No more technical debt to swallow Write it down and make it clear Architecture rules we hold dear [Verse 3] API contracts define the way Services talk throughout the day Schema evolution plans ahead How data changes without dread Exercise time, let's make it real Service dependency policy with appeal Write the rules that services obey Keep the chaos far away [Chorus] S-O-M, service ownership maps D-C rules, dependency gaps A-P-I contracts locked in place Schema evolution sets the pace Explicit rules for every call Architecture governance saves us all [Outro] AI moves fast but rules move slow Explicit governance helps us grow Four artifacts to guide our way Architecture governance every day
