Durable architecture preserves continuity while models, platforms, and providers change underneath it.
Every AI architecture contains components that will eventually be replaced. Models will change. Platforms will change. Providers and pricing will change.

Durable architecture keeps governance, knowledge, identity, policy, integration boundaries, and capability contracts stable while technology evolves underneath.
The goal isn’t to predict which AI technology will win. It’s to make replacement ordinary.
