Your architecture is changing. Do you know about it?

As event-driven architectures scale, an invisible problem emerges: who is producing what, and who is consuming it? A service starts consuming your OrderPlaced event. No ticket. No Slack message. No email. You find out weeks later when something breaks downstream.
At scale, you need governance over these relationships. You need to know when dependencies change, who is affected, and ideally, before it reaches production.
