Overview

BIGAPI is a design pattern for communicating and documenting software architectures. The name is a scrambled acronym for “Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace”. The pattern is tailored for data-centric, cloud-native applications and follows communication and documentation practice inspired by the W3C, ARC42 and C4, highlighting how clear structure and balanced, lightweight components can make an architecture understandable.
