Traceability of data sources, decisions and configs as a General Requirment
We need to provide the general requirement, that all decisions, data and sources need to be tracible, so that it always is possible to track
why and on what basis a decision has been made. This involves:
• Provide all information available under which a certain decision is made and that point in time
• Track changes and their originators
• Archive sources / binaries that are used in a solution
• Link notice files and other documentation with sources/binaries
• Document decisions and choices made
