Market Product Life Cycle Consequences for Architecting

abstract The lifecycle of a product category in the market determines many aspects of the architecting approach. The lifecycle consists typical of 4 phases: infancy, adolesence, mature and aging.

A discontinuity in market success is seen in the transition from one phase to the next phase. The explanation given is that the phases differ in characterictics and require different approaches. The right approach for one phase is sub optimal for the next phase. A set of characteristics per phase is given and the consequences for architecting are discussed.
