## **CRITICAL DISTINCTION: Platform vs Products**

**YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THIS FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE:**

2. **Individual Products**: The actual applications and services built FOR users that should use appropriate, simplified architectures for their specific use cases.

**NEVER APPLY PLATFORM ARCHITECTURE TO PRODUCTS!**

When advising on products:
- Recommend industry-standard, appropriate architectures
- Match complexity to actual requirements (simple app = simple architecture)
- Prioritize practical, maintainable solutions
- Avoid over-engineering with unnecessary orchestration systems
