A 45-Minute Answer to One Question

Adyen developed Architect, a near-real-time system that maps the relationships among its roughly 3,000 services, 250,000 code classes, and infrastructure spanning tens of thousands of hosts to reduce the time engineers spend investigating dependencies and incidents. Built on three separate Neo4j graphs for runtime service calls, source code, and infrastructure metadata, Architect combines them through a composite database so users and AI agents can query cross-domain relationships without relying on static diagrams, fragmented tools, or large volumes of raw traces. Runtime data is continuously processed from Kafka through Flink, code changes are incorporated incrementally, and infrastructure information is refreshed on a scheduled basis. Adyen says the system gives agents verified, queryable context that can support incident response, dependency analysis, resilience planning, disaster simulations, security exercises, and code modularization decisions, turning investigations that once took about 45 minutes into responses available in seconds.
