Peter van der Merwe developed and refined the architecture for the NHSDigital/ftrs-directory-of-services repository over four months, focusing on modularity, governance, and deployment reliability. He introduced C4 model-based diagrams and automated their deployment using GitHub Actions and YAML, enabling clear architectural visibility. Peter consolidated and modularized system components, routing all APIs through a centralized API management layer to improve security and observability. He aligned AWS deployment views with actual infrastructure, enhanced documentation, and improved traceability of non-functional requirements. His work demonstrated depth in architecture design, API management, and cloud infrastructure, resulting in a maintainable, scalable foundation for ongoing development.

May 1, 2025May 2025 monthly summary: Delivered a major architectural consolidation by routing all external-facing APIs, including internally initiated APIs, through APIM for NHSDigital/ftrs-directory-of-services. Updated the C4 model to reflect a centralized API entry point and standardized API access, improving security, governance, and observability. This work reduces integration risk and enables scalable growth and consistent API behavior across internal and external consumers. Commit 0801cbb355f0f00100813150026eda8152196189 documents the change: 'All external facing APIs accessed through APIM - including those initiated internally (#132)'.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 performance summary for NHSDigital/ftrs-directory-of-services. This month focused on establishing a scalable, maintainable foundation through architectural modularization and componentization. Key activity: refactoring the system architecture into multiple C4 model files and introducing new components for data sourcing ETL, API management proxies, and assurance engines. Defined relationships, deployment configurations, and updated service definitions; added new system visualization views to aid ops and decision-making. The work positions the project for faster iterations, clearer ownership, and improved deployment agility.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025 focused on establishing FtRS architecture visibility and reliable artifact deployment for the Find the Right Service (FtRS) workstream in NHSDigital/ftrs-directory-of-services. Delivered initial architecture diagrams using the C4 model and a GitHub Actions workflow to publish these diagrams as a website. Fixed a deployment pipeline issue to restore CI/CD for architecture artifacts, enabling repeatable deployments and faster feedback to stakeholders.
