Backend Architecture Audit
Comprehensive Backend Architecture Review, Scalability Assessment & Optimization Roadmap
We provide backend architecture audits for companies that need clarity, scalability, and long-term reliability
H-Studio helps startups and enterprises identify architectural risks, scalability bottlenecks, and performance issues in Java, Spring Boot, microservices, and distributed backend systems — delivering clear findings and an actionable optimization roadmap based on real production experience.
The problem: backend systems scale faster than architecture
Many backend platforms reach a point where:
At this stage, adding more infrastructure does not solve the problem — architectural clarity does.
Our approach: engineering-led backend audits
We perform hands-on backend architecture audits, not surface-level reviews.
Our goal is to:
What we audit
Comprehensive analysis across multiple dimensions of your backend architecture.
Backend architecture & system design
- •Overall system architecture
- •Monolith vs. microservices boundaries
- •Service communication patterns
- •API design and contracts
- •Dependency structure
Scalability & performance
- •Load handling and throughput limits
- •Latency hotspots
- •Horizontal vs. vertical scaling strategy
- •Caching and data access patterns
- •JVM performance characteristics
Data & persistence layer
- •Database architecture and usage
- •Transaction boundaries
- •Read/write separation
- •Data consistency and integrity
- •Performance under real-world load
Infrastructure & operations
- •Deployment architecture
- •Containerization & orchestration readiness
- •CI/CD impact on backend delivery
- •Observability, logging & monitoring
- •Failure handling and resilience
Security & robustness
- •Authentication & authorization flows
- •API security patterns
- •Error handling and fault isolation
- •Risk areas in distributed systems

FAQ
How long does a backend architecture audit take?
Audit timelines depend on system complexity and scope. Typical audits take 2-4 weeks, including analysis, architecture review, report writing, and walkthrough sessions.
Do you need access to our production systems?
We typically need read-only access to your codebase, architecture documentation, and optionally staging/production environments for performance testing. We can work with NDAs and security requirements.
What format is the audit report?
You receive a structured report with executive summary, architecture diagrams, detailed technical findings, prioritized recommendations, and a step-by-step optimization roadmap.
Can you audit microservices architectures?
Yes — we audit backend systems including monoliths, microservices, and hybrid architectures. We assess both individual service design and overall system architecture.
Do you provide implementation after the audit?
The audit is a standalone service, but we can provide implementation support separately if you decide to act on the recommendations.
