Proactive schema evolution: the practice of regularly
Proactive schema evolution: the practice of regularly reviewing and refining mental models before they fail catastrophically, involving scheduled maintenance, stress testing, and automated monitoring to prevent costly reactive updates
Why This Is a Definition
This definition establishes the precise semantic boundary of 'proactive schema evolution' by identifying its genus (schema maintenance practice) and differentia (regular review, stress testing, automated monitoring before failure) while distinguishing it from reactive approaches. It captures the core concept introduced in the lesson.
