    <p>Some context upfront:</p> <p>Imagine a 200+ developers company finally setting up a more or less independent architecture team/department. The software portfolio consisting of 20+ "projects"/applications of varying sizes in production was taken care of by team-leads/technical-leads, who were responsible for and in charge of the projects "architecture" as well.</p> <p>Out of the necessity to consolidate and control the architecture and enable certain needed large reworks on the systems as a whole, in addition of the all so needed knowledge exchange, the company decided to set-up an architecture department.</p> <ul> <li><p>What are the <strong>DO</strong>s and <strong>DON'T</strong>s of such an undertaking?</p></li> <li><p>Who are the people making up such an architecture team?</p></li> <li><p>What should be their responsibilities? </p></li> <li><p>What's out of their scope? </p></li> <li><p>What are the useful transition strategies for the company?</p></li> <li><p>How to prevent those wry looks every time someone even mentions "the architecture team"?</p></li> <li><p>Did your company undergo such a change already successfully?<br/>Why did it fail?<br/>Why was it successful?</p></li> </ul> <p>That's should <strong>not</strong> be a discussion on "What is architecutre?"(which is very closely related ;). </p> <p>The really interesting points would be acceptable/realistic maybe even frictionless ways to install such a team, besides of course some warnings regarding battles better not to be even started.</p>

    1. COAs I illustrates in my answer below, there is no such thing as _one_ architecture team for an organization of this size. Too much topics too cover.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
