🔄 **Design Document Evaluation - Hybrid Solution**

**Analysis Results:**

**Version 1** - Microservices Architecture
- Score: 88/100
- Best: Scalability design, clear separation
- Weak: Complex deployment

**Version 2** - Monolithic with Modules
- Score: 85/100

- Weak: Future scaling concerns

**Creating Hybrid Solution:**

**Combined Approach Selected**:
1. **Core Architecture** (from v1): Microservices foundation
2. **Data Layer** (from v2): Unified database approach initially
3. **API Design** (from v1): RESTful with GraphQL gateway
4. **Component Structure** (from v2): Modular monolith to start
5. **Deployment** (hybrid): Containerized but co-located initially

**Rationale**:
- Start simple (v2's approach) with path to scale (v1's architecture)
- Reduces initial complexity while maintaining flexibility
- Best practices from both approaches

**Final Document**: `design_v9341.md`
- Combined score projection: 94/100
- Includes migration path from monolith to full microservices

**Summary**: Combined strengths from both versions to create optimal design solution.
